If you’re a happy owner of an Android phone, you might have thought of the opportunity to watch any video file on it. However, Adroid mobile devices support relatively few video formats, only H.263, H.264 AVC, MPEG-4. Obviously, if you want to put a video or DVD to your Android phone, you can’t deal without the conversion. Here is the roundup of five free tools which can assist you with video to Android conversion.
1). Videora Android Converter
It’s a nice choice to implement fast conversion to the desired model of an Android phone, conversion settings are well configurable. The only drawback is that it imposes too much advertising so that the main functionality is sometimes disguised. Overall, this free tool does the job done and offers numerous profiles for Android mobiles. Works under Windows and Mac OS.
2). Freemake Video Converter
This is an awesome tool supporting over 200 input video formats and turninng them into Android-compatible format.

Only Windows OS support.
4). Format Factory
It’s a popular ad-supported freeware that converts video files into MP4 – the common Android format. The interface is user-friendly and not loaded with unnecessary features.

Or, save yourself the trouble.
Just install MoboPlayer and you don’t have to convert them at all, since it plays pretty much everything, including the ever popular AVI format.
