It pauses while the phone downloads more of the video. Its called buffering. The video is playing faster than the phone is getting it.

If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
