My OnePlus 7T seems to amplify ambient noise especially wind noise from an overhead ceiling fan, when recording videos. During calls, noise cancellation removes all ambient noise.
Is there a way to make audio in videos serviceable by reducing ambient noise/hum? I'm coming from a Mi A2 and did not see this issue with that phone.

I wanted to test the camera performance. What better place to do than at a concert?
Drake Concert in Amsterdam of past Sunday.
Quality is very good, but noise cancellation sometimes kickes in and destroys the sound

I had a thread a while back asking for raw video samples from peeps here that I can directly download instead of youtube uploads. It's probably 10 pages back now. Would love if you could put some raw video on a download site.
Regarding the concert vids. I think they are pretty terrible to be honest. Slow and blurry and the audience and dark areas are literally black silhouettes. The audio was really epileptic, like I was going in and out of a seizure. You are right, it must be the audio cancellation doing its thing. The audio otherwise is pretty subpar when it isn't going up and down.

Is there no way to disable it?

Noise cancellation? Havn't tried it yet.
had exactly the same result at a gig a couple of days ago.... Video camera going in and out of focus and the sound totally messed up by what i assume to be noise cancellation.
The twin mike's are supposed to record in stereo so it shouldnt be using the noise cancelling
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA
i think audio is in amr format right?
i think HTC should upgrade to aac format like galaxy nexus, ICS supports aac format for audio in video recording.
either way i don't think the mic on one x can handle concert audio, nokia pureview 808 should be ok. even sony nex series can't handle concert audio very well. but panasonic gf2 is very good in concert recording, no cracking and muffled sound.
I don't know what format it records sound.
Then it must not be noise cancellation then. The videos I've downloaded show AAC in stereo. The format makes no difference. It could be wav, mp2, mp3, ra, ogg, etc., all of which can render high quality CD audio. The audio recording just sucks really bad, for whatever reason.
Was at an event yesterday and used my phone to record this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6z3p11RcMQ
surprisingly it's way better than my digital camera
Had the same issues especially going in en out of focus even in good light conditions.
Haha, the sound quality is a bad joke ...
What if you turn off stereo sound recording? Maybe there is a stupid bug associated with it.
Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the ZTE Axon 7 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Just wondering why 4k looks so much better than 1080p, even when watched on a 1080p screen.
Almost as if they deliberately made video less than 4k look crap.
I wish the audio quality was better. I found out that axon records audio at 96 kbps which is lower than other phones. I wish I can increase the bitrate for audio.

It has something to do with bitrate. LinusTechTips made a video about this but im not near a computer.
These clips should not be listed as "raw". They should called ungraded or unedited. Too much confusion with RAW.
While the video itself it really nice, and the audio is great in regular settings.... In LOUD settings, such as a full, live band, you get a terrible mic clipping noise.
Here's an example
Video of loud fireworks in Valencia:
I have to set anti-banding to 50Hz (not to auto or 60Hz), there are a lot flickering.
I took a video of starting and running my car after doing a lot of work to it and having it off the road for many weeks. I was very surprised at how well the mics picked up sound. As I moved around the front of the car, many different noises were easily identifiable and extremely clear. I shot it on the snap camera hd app instead of the stock camera.

Here's a short vid I took today. Cold start cycle on the car. The phone handles quite a lot of loudness pretty well.

I was messing around with the Axon 7 this afternoon. Fitted a phone mount at the top of my front windscreen in the car and took some footage whilst driving with the windows fully open. In all previous phones this resulted in really bad audio with wind noise and vibrations destroying what I would want to hear.
Pleased to say, the recorded audio with the A7 is shockingly good! It's loud and clear with great dynamic range and doesn't pull back with a sudden loud noise. Very real. Will install a crashcam app to see how that looks and sounds, although I have a fairly good dual camera crash cam installed already.
ZTE have implemented audio recording with the DAC very well but the mics must be better than average too.

Hello,
Did you found it ?
Has anyone used their Pixel / XL to record video of a live music performance or in a nightclub? I tend to film a lot of live music at concerts large and small and want to know if the audio gets very distorted or not. I currently have a Nexus 6P and it's okay but not great, have to stand fairly far from the stage to avoid distortion. My old HTC phones (M8 and M9) that had a dual microphone setup was nearly flawless in extremely loud places and I really miss that sound quality.
I'm interested in this as well. Anyone tried recording a video in a club or loud concert?
I tested my Pixel XL the other night at a blues club, standing less than 10 feet from the stage and the sound quality is very good, no distortion at all. The sound is a little bit muted in the vocals but much better than my 6P could ever do. I'm quite happy with the sound quality of the video.
Below is a link to the video i made

Hello guys,
Yesterday my Nokia 7 Plus arrived and i am overall pretty happy with it. However i am a bit disappointed that there is no 60FPS video recording and no way to unlock the bootloader yet.
Now i am thinking about switching to the One Plus 5T, but because video recording at concerts is a big point for me and my last phone, the one plus 3 had a really bad quality, i am wondering how the 5T is performing?
Yesterday i received a testvideo from a OnePlus 5 user and i must say i am not pretty happy with that kind of quality:
https://photos.app.goo.gl/bgeE8qdpTo805BBt1
When the bass kicks in, mostly every other part of the song is not recognizable. Does the OnePlus 5 uses the same microphones as the 5T?
What's your opinions switching from the Nokia 7 Plus to the 5T?
Thank you in advance
nobody?
Well for me the bass definitely is clipping at concerts. Nothing you can do but using a low cut. The bass at concerts is too loud anyway but I have to say that the iPhone makes better videos and has a higher audio quality at concerts.

Yeah, the bass at most concerts is too loud, but i heard a lot of devices (huawei, samsung, iphone) which had no problem recording in heavy bass environments.
Made a testvideo yesterday with my Nokia 7 Plus and i must say the audio quality is the best i've ever heard from a phone so far.
I am wondering if the active noise cancellation of the 5T destroys the sound quality, because the one plus 3 had the same issue.
Hello everyone, i'm here to ask if there's a method to increase quality on video in low light condition, particularly in non-natural light the video is shooted with a lot of noise, gcam is the same condition, even increasing the bitrate.
