Compress a 4K wallpaper without dropping below 3840x2160
The usual advice for an oversized 4K wallpaper is to shrink it to 1080p, which defeats the point of owning a 4K display. You do not need to trade resolution for size — a 4K JPEG at high quality and a 4K PNG of the same scene differ by multiples in weight while looking identical. Compress at full resolution and keep the monitor filled edge to edge.

4K wallpaper compression that holds up on a big screen
Use these before you upload or share the page.
Keep the full 3840x2160 canvas. Only resize down if the display is not actually 4K — compressing at native resolution preserves the detail you downloaded the file for.
If the source is a PNG, re-export the compressed result as JPEG or WebP. Wallpapers are photographic or gradient-heavy, not text or line art, so PNG is almost always the wrong format.
Aim for 1-2MB at 4K. Below 800KB you start to see banding in smooth sky gradients, which is the most visible artefact in a wallpaper.
