You’ll need iPhone 8 or later for support of HDR playback. That means that iPhone 6 will always download the SDR version.

There should be a setting for the download quality. In iOS 16, that is at Settings﹥TV﹥[ᴅᴏᴡɴʟᴏᴀᴅ ᴏᴘᴛɪᴏɴs] Wi-Fi﹥ then ‘High Quality’ or ‘Fast Downloads’. Not sure how that was in iOS 12.x. For me, ‘High Quality’ results in a file size that matches the 1080p version.
