I know Google stated last month a fix would be coming but compared to others mine sounds even worse. Wondering if the update was part of the 8.1 beta
Took a short video on my walk into work.
Holding my breath and just ambient noise
Bump for rma
Eeek, that's horrible. It's not in 8.1 as far as I know.
I hope they fix it soon.

That's a different issue. Blowing into the mic will do nothing for this.

Try recording again with some background noise.
It's possible to get decent sounding recording if there's only one source of sound - e.g. you're just speaking and there's no background noise of any kind.
I'm pretty sure this affects ALL 2 XLs.

I use an app called Audio Recorder and the audio is awful, even at the highest quality setting. Noticably worse than on my last phone, the MotoX Pure Edition. And it sounds much like the video in post #2. Like really, really bad compression

Just checking in on how audio quality is while recording video? (thinking about getting this device).
Does it get that 'underwater' effect that sometimes plagues audio in video?
Is it able to record loud noise without distorting?

Good question considering I like recording concerts I go to.. I haven't been to one yet, but would like to see someone's recording of one. I know the LG G2 was horrible at recording concerts as well as the whole line of Galaxy phones.. Sadly the best phone I've ever heard for recording loud volumes is the iphone
This is an advertised feature of the G3 and I was also wondering about it.
Coming from an S3 where you couldnt make out anything except garbled noise when recording in loud environments, I was also keen to see if this would really work.
So, just the other night I was in the pub, bunch of people, some DJ playing some cheesy tunes with decent amount of bass and lots of noise of people etc etc.. Now I don't want to upload the video because my workmates would kill me, you know the drunken antics people get into, but I will say the following about the video recording in this noisy environment:
1. You could hear everything!
2. It sounds a bit like music in a tin, but even above the music / screams and noise you could still clearly hear people speaking and what they were saying perfectly.
3. Played it back on the PC and it definitely still has bass / treble / mid range, maybe a bit too much mid range but I think that's the compromise between being able to still record voices while all this noise is happening.
4. All in all great, I am pleased.
5. Need to record at a festival though with super loud sound so that I can compare the sound to my friends Nokia & iPhone video recordings to rate it a bit better. (if you have links to videos recorded by such devices that I can compare to, I will have a look and see what I notice different / better /worse)
I am no audiophile / sound engineer, but these are my impressions of video recording in a loud environment.

TLDR- PERFECT PHONE!

Taken on an LG G3. Took it on Thursday Night. If I took video on my Galaxy S3 in the same spot, you wouldnt be able to hear anything because the bass would take over...
Here is my Galaxy S3 taking video at EDC Orlando in November 2013... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSwQ7WIrJVM too much bass...
Dang it really does take good audio in videos. Great vids!

I can confirm this phone has good audio recording at loud concerts which I go to quite often. It's not the best quality but at least it doesn't distort or get overpowered by bass (like my note 2). I am very satisfied. I can finally record artists and enjoy rewatching the clips on my phone.

I have also discovered the same problem. I have searched a bit and its turn out to be "noise cancellation" feature build in kit kat, the problem is presented in nexus 5 too, and google working on it to fix this in 4.4.3, otherwise in very loud environments like concerts noise cancellation do amazing job, but it is very bad for quite environment.
This is what bugs me most about my G3. The noise cancellation that kicks in after 3 or 4 seconds is just way too aggressive for the sake of reducing distortion in harsh environments. It practically ruins the sound quality unless you have someone speaking nearby. Every video I have taken sounds muffled and garbled.
This is definitely one area in which I prefer my old One M7 with the "HDR" dual membrane microphones which would simultaneously be clear and avoid distortion. LG should have taken this route if they were serious about avoiding distortion.
Today's LG G3 Update fix that bug, good job Google and LG :good:

I found this thread while searching for a solution to very audio problem mentioned here.
I also have an LG G3 and have recently returned from a week holiday only to find that the 140 clips i took all have this audio problem.
Nauvho, you mentioned that LG/Google has fixed this in an update. I received the V10g update recently. However, it still has this problem.
Is this the same update that fixed it for you?
Cheers!

Hi there, yes this update fix the problem for me, however i can't confirm that this update is targeted for this bug at all, but it is confirmed that it is android bug.

Did you get the V10g or the V10e update?

So no problem when calling people with microphone (low sound quality etc.) ?
And do you recommend anything else with Mic. for nexus 5?
Seriously? Noone? ...
Don't have that pair, but the ones that came with my iPhone work well enough. The sound quality is crappy, but what can you expect from an Apple product. /shrug
By crappy sound I mean the music and people's voices as I hear them, the mic works well from what I'm told. Music and all sounds crappy on these things regardless of what I plug them into.

I use Sony MDR-XB50AP's and as the name suggests, it's made to work with pretty much every Android device. Great SQ in general and if you don't mind some quality bass you'll love them. They retail for lower than those Sennheisers.
Xiaomi piston 3 are best and they cost 12$ from china

I've been using them since February and nope haven't noticed any issues besides V4A or AudioFX bugs but those have nothing to do with the headset themselves.

Does anyone know what this chip actually does? I mean, I presume it's to improve or accelerate image processing but the phone's a beast at this already so I'm curious if there's more to it than just that.
i mean, if you google it there are a lot of articles that explains it properly

I heard it's still hidden in preview? Haven't confirmed yet
Haven't found a setting for it in Developers options yet. Maybe in the next preview update...
One good thing it will allow is third party apps to utilize the awesome software behind the Pixels' strong photo abilities. Hopefully meaning we can send better photos with Snapchat
From what's been explained, the chip won't necessarily improve quality, but mainly performance for HDR+.
The Duo video call looks really soft like there is an active face retouching; I have good WiFi (56MBps). The quality on whatsapp is equally terrible but without face retouching.
Do the custom ROMs have the same issue? Or is it just my device?
Current ROM- stock December, stock kernel, rooted with magisk
Is it the quality of the person you're video chatting with? If so, then it's probably them and not you.

I found the same thing using duo.
My face is so soft, even in high lighting, it look like a beauty filter found on Chinese phone. It wasn't doing that on my 2 previous non Google phone.
I'm not sure we can do anything about it though

From the screenshots I've taken last week while on a video chat, I look pretty fine with smile lines and facial scruff showing up. Nothing special with my internet speed 50/50. You stated you have 56 Mbps speed, that's down and up? Also for clarification, did you mean Mbps but autocorrected to MBps?

Sometimes when I listen to a video captured with the pixel 6 pro I can listen a very high cracking noise, is this happening to more people? (Video attached)

I have the same problem. I read somewhere, that its not happening when recording with 0.7x or 4.0x camera but only with 1.0x camera. Haven't tried it with other cameras yet.
