MOV vs M4R
Only the sound is kept — the picture is dropped, so the M4R file is far smaller than the MOV video.

About MOV and M4R
MOV: MOV is Apple's QuickTime format and the default for videos recorded on iPhone. Recent iPhones record MOV files in HEVC (H.265), which many Windows PCs and older Android phones can't play.
M4R: M4R is the iPhone ringtone format. It is an AAC audio file (the same as M4A) with a different extension, and iOS only accepts ringtones up to 30–40 seconds long.
