What happens when you Optimise photos on iPhone?

With Optimise Storage, smaller, space-saving photos and videos are kept on your device while all of your original, full-resolution versions are stored in iCloud. And as long as you have enough space in iCloud, you can store as many photos and videos as you want.

Does optimizing photos on iPhone reduce quality?

If your iCloud Photos Library is huge and not much storage on your iPhone, the optimized versions will be highly compressed to make them fit the available storage. If your iPhone has sufficient memory, the optimized versions will be less compressed. I do not see much loss of image quality on my iPhone.
