They are probably stored in iCloud Photo library and when you open them, the videos download back to the phone then play.

To keep your photos and videos on your phone as well as iCloud go to Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Photos > and make sure Download and keep originals is selected with a tick next to it.


If you are on mobile data it might incur is additional data usage.

I advise doing this on WIFI.
