How Image File Size Is Calculated

An uncompressed image stores information for every individual pixel. The total amount of memory required depends on the image width, height, and number of bits used to represent each pixel.

8-bit

Typically represents grayscale images using 256 possible shades.

24-bit

Uses 8 bits each for red, green, and blue channels for standard RGB color.

32-bit

Usually includes RGB color plus an additional 8-bit alpha transparency channel.

Uncompressed vs Compressed Image Files

This calculator estimates the raw memory required when an image is uncompressed. Actual files such as JPEG, PNG, and WebP can be considerably smaller because they use compression.

For example, a 3840 × 2160 image at 24-bit color requires approximately 23.73 MiB of raw pixel memory, regardless of whether the original JPEG or WebP file is much smaller.
