Why did my youtube analytics have two different views for the same videos?

For example, if I enter the channel content page, my video posted in yesterday has 2,778 views now.

Yet if I enter its specific youtube analytics page, it has 2,869 views.

Who can explain which one is the correct views?

Thanks a lot, bros and sis!

The analytics pages are more realtime than the content/channel pages. They aren't far behind, but they are a little slower at updating sometimes than analytics.
So the analytics page should be the most accurate stats.

At times YouTube real time view counts differs from the YouTube Analytics, it could be that your video is getting views way faster and quicker and due to that, it takes a while to show up on video page but give it a 48 hours time duration, that's when most of your analytics are updated, every 48 hours. I have had this issue in past where my video views were 300 but on the analytic it was crossing 1k, so yep, that's mainly because of the API being bit slow than usual for those videos which are popping up too fast and it takes a while to update the actual views.
