Specifically bought this phone to take with me to Minnesota to see Metallica's show live and get good quality recordings both in video and audio.
As you can see in the video below, autogain or some other stupid setting caused the audio to peak out and make a crackling sound.
Now to compare, my friend was standing next to me recording with his Galaxy S7 Edge with absolutley no issues.
I went to see Black Sabbath last night and experienced the same exact issues and my buddy didnt have any once again. Seriously considering returning this phone and getting an S7 edge...

Funny story behind this test.
I was at an Arsenal game today and during a lull in play and when we had a corner, I decided to pull out my phone and do a test recording.
I guessed nothing would happen as the game was drying up.
We were in an advantageous position but suddenly Manchester City counter attacked and scored! I was livid! I had to contain my swearing as I quickly tried to turn the recording off.
Here's the test
Check it out in 1080p and tell me what you think of the quality. This video was uploaded via the standard YouTube app found on the Galaxy Nexus.
Quality isn't bad for a phone camera. Not too fussed about result though, we have too many games anyway. Let's get back to CL next year.
Good of recording the goal...
Bad of being in Aquarium-mode...(GNex video recording)
Yeah man, we need CL big time. I don't want to watch us on Thursdays on Five.
Not the best quality for 1080p video, anyway...
Expected more for it, probably it is because of low light
Looking for some advice. I have already swapped out one Galaxy Note II due to an issue with video recording. Every video taken with the phone had horrendous speaker cracking and popping during playback. The speakers were fine for music and other videos, but videos taken on the device suffered from terrible interference. I had the device replaced and received my new one yesterday. Opened it up, took a video and get exactly the same issue. From what I have seen on Youtube, the audio quality from this phone should actually be really good, and I haven't read a single report of the issue I have now experienced on two devices anywhere online. Before I go down the route of exchanging for a third device, does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might be able to remedy this? I have linked to a video I uploaded taken in a silent room where the popping noise is clearly audible.
What do you all suggest? Anything I can try or have I really been unlucky enough to own the only 2 devices with this hardware fault?

Just a bump to keep this on the front page until it's had at least a couple of responses.
I do think I read about this "pop" in Video recordings elsewhere in a review I think? They mentioned this being an issue with the GS3 as well I believe. I will try to find the article again and post it if I can.
Just did a test with mine and no popping what so ever.
Same here. No popping, at least in a couple of short (2-3 minutes in length) 1080p videos I recorded. (They're the only videos I've recorded using my SGN II so far.)
I'm having the same problem with my Note II LTE (GT-N7105). Did you find a solution to the problem or is it just a case of getting the phone replaced?
Hello, I'm wondering if anyone is having an issue with their microphone or playing back recorded audio? We went to a race the other night with the kids and they had those jet cars which I know are way too loud but we go every year and last year I recorded around 12 runs on my Epic 4g with no audio problem, and my wife recorded the same runs this year on her GS3 with no issues but my note was distorted. All of the high frequency sounds seem fine but the lowe end is just not there and somewhat muffled. I plan to root soon but wonder if I should have the microphone looked at or replaced beforehand???
Answered my own question, I think?
Well, after digging around here for a few minutes, I found a couple threads about a High Pass Filter on the GS3 and Note 2 which seems to be the culprit. It appears that you can disable it on the GS3 but not on the Note??? I will keep digging and post back if I find a solution. Thanks!
Please let me know if you find any info!
I got this phone hoping that the quality of my concert recordings would look better than the aging nexus 5x I had. I did a couple recordings last night. Ill update it later as soon as the other two videos update. Couple things happened. During the first show it was brighter in the room and it looked better. I accidentally swiped on the phone and it ended the recording. That was frustrating when it happened and the first bands recording got cut in half. I tried using the shake free mode or whatever it was called on the first band to try to save battery. The second band got on stage and I switched it to the 4k mode. I paid no attention to the warning that popped up when i started recording. The video ended after five minutes and I wondered what the heck happened. I started recording again and noticed the warning that 4k only records 5 minutes at a time. After that I switched over to the hd stable mode. The show was quite a bit darker and the video quality was not the best. Audio was fine on all the recordings though.
So I went home and uploaded the videos... first thing I noticed was the 4k video was sideways... I held the phone the way I was supposed to... I have no idea why it recorded sideways. Thats a little annoying because i dont have the tools to fix it.

I just got my note 10+ yesterday and was pretty excited to try out the screen recorder. I soon discovered its trash and I can't achieve any good recordings. I tried a bunch of different settings and 3rd party apps but nothing works well. I'm probably getting 15fps. I thought the note was a power house. My pixel 2xl records better. Anyone have better success please share!!! Thx
I have a 975F, and the screen recordings are fine
