Why does 360p video get rendered with BT.601 Color primaries, when 720p has BT.709?

New Here ,

I've found no way to have control over this except for the High10 profile Rec2020 color primaries option. 
But I'd like to have a way for them both to be rendered with the same color primaries.

I'm trying to test our software and there's a color difference in the videos, so I wanted to see if the color primaries are causing this

 

Attaching a picture where the 2 colours are compared (This is a picture taken from an Android device using our software)
