Summary: There are two reasons prevent you from watching 4K UHD videos on iPhone 7, with the best setting video format.
Why iPhone 7 can not play 4K videos successfully, here is the reason: A single minute of ProRes UHD file (3840 x 2160) is around 5.3 GB (880 Mbits/s), and a one-hour 4K footage is a whopping 318 GB. So, no matter the next iPhone 7 will be available with 256GB or 16 GB of memory, it would still be a problem to play 4K video on iPhone 7/Plus.
Besides, there is another reason may lead you to be failed in playing 4K videos on iPhone 7 successfully? iPhone 7 usually support MOV, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, 3GPP, 3GPP2, AVCHD and DV as video file formats.
