iPhone Photos storage

I have iCloud Photos and 'Optimise storage' for both iPhone and Macbook Air. Why does Photos take up 1.63 GB on the iphone but only 1.5 MB on the macbook?

iPhone SE, iOS 14

Why the Difference?

Because they are two completely different operating systems with their own settings, when it comes to optimizing storage. So, everything is fine.
