Why SizeBattle

Head-to-head clarity

Every tool puts two things in the ring and declares a winner — bigger size, faster download, sharper screen — with the exact margin, not just a vague 'more'.

Instant results

No spinners and no waiting. Type a value and the answer updates as you go, right in the browser.

Private by default

Every calculation runs on your device. No accounts, no uploads, no tracking — the sizes and speeds you type never leave the page.

English & Russian

The whole site — tools, guides and help — is fully bilingual. Switch languages anytime from the header.

Digital sizes, made simple

SizeBattle is a free suite of head-to-head size calculators for the digital questions that come up all the time: which file is bigger and by how many bytes, how long a download really takes, whether a 27-inch monitor beats a 32-inch one on sharpness, which of two numbers wins, and how many photos or songs fit on a drive. Instead of squinting at a spec sheet, you put two contenders in the ring and get a clear winner with the exact margin between them.

The tools are precise about the details that trip people up — the difference between decimal units (1 KB = 1000 bytes) and binary units (1 KiB = 1024 bytes), between bits and bytes, and between megabits and megabytes on your internet plan. Everything works client-side in your browser, so it is fast, private and available offline once loaded. Each tool is paired with a plain-language guide that explains the calculation behind it, so you not only get the answer but understand where it comes from.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between KB and KiB (decimal vs binary)?+

Decimal (SI) units go up in powers of 1000: 1 KB = 1000 bytes, 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes. Binary (IEC) units go up in powers of 1024: 1 KiB = 1024 bytes, 1 MiB = 1,048,576 bytes. Storage and networking usually advertise decimal units, while operating systems often report binary units — which is why a '1 TB' drive shows as about 931 GiB. SizeBattle labels both clearly so you always know which one you're looking at.

How is download time calculated?+

SizeBattle converts the file size to bytes and the connection speed to bytes per second, then divides one by the other. Remember that Mbps and Gbps are megabits and gigabits per second, and there are 8 bits in a byte — so a 100 Mbps line moves about 12.5 MB every second. Real-world transfers are a little slower because of protocol overhead, latency and congestion, so treat the result as a best-case estimate.

How do you work out a screen's real width, height and PPI?+

From the diagonal and aspect ratio we solve for the two sides using the Pythagorean theorem: the width and height are the legs of a right triangle whose hypotenuse is the diagonal. Area is simply width × height. PPI (pixels per inch) needs a pixel resolution — it's the diagonal measured in pixels divided by the diagonal measured in inches, so a sharper panel packs more pixels into the same physical space.

Which assumptions does the storage estimator use?+

The estimator assumes about 4 MB per photo, 5 MB per song, 50 MB per minute of 1080p video and 1 MB per ebook. These are rough averages — a RAW photo or 4K video is far larger, and a compressed MP3 or plain-text ebook is smaller. The tool shows every assumption on screen so you can sanity-check the numbers against your own files.

Is my data sent anywhere?+

No. Every battle is computed locally in your browser with JavaScript. The sizes, speeds and dimensions you type never leave your device and nothing is stored on a server. There are no accounts and no tracking.
