Are there any good apps that can be installed to keep the audio from distorting in loud situations when taking video? IE live concerts and such. The horrible audio quality on videos pretty much ruins the nice video the phone takes.

External USB mic or headphone mic really. Other than that, you might have to use a completely different app to record the video. Like cameraFX or something.

.. microphone. Or at least, a minijack socket. I recorded a video off my artemis yesterday of someone playing drums. It's distorted to hell, it can't handle it and even if it could, it's thin and tinny. I have a great sony stereo mic which I use with my minidisc recorder. It would be great to use it with a phone, or better still, to have a phone with a high quality stereo mic built in. Has this been done or is it likely? Not to mention the video frame rate is terrible.

You're using your phone to record live music, did you expect to record an album with it?

No.
The question is quite straight forward. Anyone else like to have a go?
ok so i was at a concert recently seeing my all time favorite rap group whom i have been listening to since my childhood, whip out my desire s to get some good hd footage, get on the train and then bammm the audio is completely blown out.. now of course i was p'd off especially when people who were recording with the iphone 4 and the blackberry their videos were absolutely fine in terms of audio which was clearly audible.. it seems that it does not automatically recognise that the sound levels are too high and does not lower the sound intake or whatever, not too clued up with all this.. anyone else experience any issues with audio during vid recording.. i have read somewhere that recording with your headset plugged in makes a drastic difference.
Hi how good is the microphones in the mate 9 do they compare to the v20 or HTC 10?
I recorded via WhatsApp today for 5 minutes, while driving. Phone was on my lap. The pickup was fantastic and even though you can hear the road noise in the background, the vocals were clear and natural.
My HTC One Mate 8 was also pretty good, and that's the only phone of recent memory that I can compare to.
Anyone noticed when video recording in complete silence, there are weird noises? like a buzz or hiss.. weird.. wonder what it is. Its not a big enough problem to affect my OCD though.

Yep. Like a sort of crackling/hissing. Doesn't seem to occur when recording audio only, so I'm thinking it's something in the camera module, like the autofocus or OIS motors.
I noticed whilst watching some YouTube videos, that the audio recorded from this device sounds really subpar. I noticed it on Mr Mobiles youtube video and the linked one. Sounds really hissy. 3m22sec marker .. this is just one example, all other videos with audio recorded sounded the same .

Yeah it's crap. I think it's software issue though. Something like enabled noise reduction while video recording.
I have a Pixel 1 and absolutely love the audio recording characteristics while video recording. I play drums, and this is the first phone that I can just aim at the drums and play loud or soft, and the playback is excellent. Not distorted, and also very little annoying sluggish or excessive changes in recording volume. Even the deep punchy b ass drum is felt as much as it is heard, and the high end of the cymbals is good. It has made great recordings of live music whether front row or far away. The phone needs to be replaced. Does anyone know of another affordable phone with similar audio recording characteristics? Thank you.
No need to reply at this point. I gambled, and picked up a Samsung Galaxy A51. The audio section seems better than that of the Pixel, and the phone overall is superior to the Pixel, too. $6.24/ month seems pretty good too. Glad I piscked it up.
