Video files are corrupted after downloading them locally.

Hi my friend uploaded videos to Dropbox but when I download them to my samsung s10 phone they loose the colour and become almost black and white, then when I try to edit them they say the file is corrupted?
I managed to download the videos to a Samsung S20 phone and they came through fine but then when I upload them to a video editor app or Instagram or anything they go back to loosing the colour being almost black and white again
Any ideas why this is happening?
