As originally defined by IBM on the Stretch project one byte is a group of bits of whatever length was needed to store one character of the current character set, this was originally specified to be anything from 4 to 16 bits, but was reduced in the actual machine to 4 to 8 bits due to implementation issues.
When IBM designed the System/360 they decided to fix the byte at 8 bits to save costs and hardware.
When byte mode was added by Univac to the 1100 series, they defined the byte at 9 bits because they had a 36 bit word.
Generally now the industry considers a byte to be 8 bits.

Eight bits are in one byte
2 nibbles are in one byte
One byte of information is … one byte … regardless of where it is stored.
24 bits/pixel: one byte for red, one byte for green, one byte for blue.
A byte is the smallest unit of storage. Mostly anything you do can take up a byte.
8 Bits is one Byte. Half of a byte (4 bits) is a nibble.

One byte can represent 256 colours.

A byte is a sequence of 8 zeroes or ones in a binary system, which is known as a bit. One byte can store one alphanumeric character.
One byte equals eight bits.
