So the newly announced Nexus 6P supports slow-motion 240fps at 720p.
Then the S6 only supports up to 120fps at 720p.
Let's just say the iPhone 6s which now already supports 1080p 240fps is out of the league. I just don't understand why the S6 doesn't support 240fps at 720p. I remember reading somewhere that it is due to the limit of the processor. But then Nexus 6P sports the Snapdragon 810, which is on par with the Exysnos 7420 in the S6, and yet it can handle such high frame rate.
So I just want to ask if there is anyone out there who can explain to me why that is and if any tweaks have been found to enable to 240fps on the Samsung S6.
Thanks heaps.

the iphone supports [email protected] not 240.....and i am sure the S6 camera can do it easily, but it seems like samsung doesn't care about slow motion at all....to be honest i never used it....

It's weird, the Nexus 5 has the choppiest video recording I've seen in a while. It can only do 1080p 20fps, or 720p 22fps looking at the video files. Anyone else having the same problem? Phone likes the iPhone 5S or Note 3 can do 720p 120fps.. this is ridiculously bad.
Android 4.4.1/4.4.2 build improvement?

Did it improve with the latest android build (4.4.2)?

Yes Google fixed it, I'm seeing about 29fps compared to 20fps before with 4.4.2. They still haven't fixed the audio static bug though.
I recall an online review where the reviewer says that while shooting in low light, the Nexus 5 can only do 20fps on fw 4.4.
Got a chance to verify if Google raised fps in low light too?

Hi All, what makes the 4K content that your phones camera better? does the Snapdragon 805 provide better 4K capture than the 801?
Also is there a third party stable 4K Video recorder apk for android phones? (Assuming the phone its used on actually supports 4k)
Will the Galaxy Note 3 4K recording be worse than the Note 4's 4K Recording?
Just in case anyone is woundering, my phone is the Oppo find 7a, though my questions are aimed at the broader picture of 4K, not 4K on my phone so i thought it would be best placed in the general forum.
Thanks!
I'm not sure how to to about this. One thing I really care about on a phone I purchase is video recording quality, more specifically 1080p/60fps and slow motion. Unfortunately, the Galaxy s7 has an issue with both of these.
You know how the Galaxy s7 focuses pretty much instantly when recording video in 1080p, 1440p, or 4k? Well, it doesn't happen in the 60fps mode. The focus is even slower than my s6 in 60fps and there is tons of "focus hunting" where it bounces back and forth between focus as you're recording. Focus is literally perfect in any mode besides 60fps.
Then we have an issue with 240fps slow motion where there are a ton of frame skips throughout the video (just YouTube s7 slow motion videos to see what I'm talking about).
These two issues are huge for me. It's unfortunate because I love everything else about the phone. How can we make Samsung aware of these issues?

for frame skips, you recording to SD card or internal? do internal for something like that; probably hte sd card not being able to keep up with r/w speeds.
if you're doing internal, then i have no idea lol
Same here. Internal or SD does not matter. Just tested. 1440p / 4k works great. It's the 60fps which seems to make the focus slow...
I agree with this. I recorded slow motion to my external and internal storage and both skip and are choppy.
Here's a sample video I took
https://youtu.be/qgYfoxudl74
easiest way: write an email to samsung, all of you for your own. they won't do anything if somebody says "well on xda there are 10 people complaining and 200 people clicked like".
also prepare to go through the 2-3 standard email answers (reset your phone, do the auto update blabla) no matter what you write. just keep pursuing and after the 4th email it'll take 1-2 weeks for an answer and than you're hooked to the right guy.

Cute dog, btw!
I'm having issues with my video recording in every department. All my videos look like crap, very grainy, i wouldn't even consider any of what i have recorded as high def. 4K, joke! Everyone of them is a joke. I honestly wish i hadn't traded in my S6, the 4K video recording on the S6 was the bomb. I displayed a concert i recorded while in a dark floor mind you onto a Samsung 65" 4K tv & it was flawless. I couldn't believe what i was seeing blown up onto this 65" screen. It was amazing. Now the S7 recording, i'm embarrassed to even upload videos to youtube. Here's an example. This was shot during full daylight in 4K with the S7. Everything is washed out looking & grainy. Certainly not 4k worthy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWKZfxBP4UQ
After watching that now watch something i recorded with the s6 in 4K, HUGE difference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTwAC6gBA1A
I have dual 27" 1440p monitors, what ever resolution monitor you have display it in what suits you best
Samsung response to focus problems of the S7 video in 60fps
I've asked Samsung (NL) for a response. First they've told me they will look into it, because the problem should not have been present on all devices.
Later they've added it's a hardware issue and can not be solved by a software update. So no solution: S7 has crappy 60 fps video so live with it.
Very dissapointing. 60fps is one of the features I've needed for recording. A big let down from Samsung.
I think the problem is with the isocell camera sensor. Sony sensor seems to be working fine

Are you guys using SD 820 or Exynos?
I have no issues on an Exynos/IsoCell combo with graininess and choppy slow mo.
However the focus is indeed slower in 60 FPS.
I am using isocell sensor . Focus is very good in all recording settings except full HD 60fps. My friend's galaxy s7 with sony sensor is working fine

Exynos / rear: Sony / front: SLSI (Samsung). Choppy happend sometimes (after restart it is ok). Slow focus all the time.
Looks like Phone can not handle the data storage or cpu speed to manage more multiple fps. Which results in slow focus...
I use QHD or UHD which does not have any problems at all...
Hi,
S9+ Exynos i capable of 4k 120Fps or 1080p 480Fps. S9+ SD is not. Its a way, how upgrade camera software for these options?
I believe that while the Exynos chip is capable of that, the software doesn't allow for it. Pretty sure we would have seen mention of that in reviews (even those that had an Exynos version).

The camera performance is the same on both devices, no extras features from one to the other either. Only onboard memory in certain markets, color and radios.
Samsung uses SD in the US because of Qualcomm's LTE license fees... That'd will change with 5G roll out

You arent right. Exynos is capable of 4K 120FPS recording/decoding, SD845 not.

Processor may be able to handle that but the phone, which is what I was talking about doesn't have this feature. Not out of the box or before some mods are done
Anyone having issue with video recordings stuttering? Recording in UHD (not 60 fps though). S9+ Eynos version.

YES! Both Exnos and US version have this issue with 4k 30fps. I dont see this issue with 4k 60fps as much. Its easily noticable. My solution is to turn off stabilization. That seems to fix it. Either stabilization is taking up too much CPU or the EIS is jsut crappy and makes a hard jump rather than a smooth roll.

Wtf that's so **** man. I never encountered that with my Note8. And it's not like I'm even moving around that much or that quickly. Just moving the phone around slightly.
The p20 pro lack speed and video stabilization, many 2018 flagships are competing the iphone x bionic chip neck to neck, video stabilization is a typical feature for 2018.
What the heck is huawei doing. Where is valuable updates ? Even 960 fps slow mo is fake. They didn't even add EIS to their camera via an update.the comptetion is no longer hot here !
Great thread ... great OP ... not.
You expect an iPhone X for half the price of an iPhone X or something?

Ok take the oneplus 6 or any 2018 android flagship as performance reference . Not the X
Yes well if 4k video is all you care about there are better phones for sure. I'd hardly call the phone uncompetitive though, and it's also cheaper than the s9 plus if you want to compare it to an Android flagship. Of course there were always going to be some compromises to deliver a competitive price, and no phone will appeal to everyone regardless.

Stabilisation​ on stills and 1080p 60fps is superb.
No need for 4k

You're right, crap lol.
There is some stabilization on 60fps, might be EIS, definitely something there though, stabilization at 30fps works perfectly. Which is fine.
Camera is decent mate, no need to bash it, plus it can be improved with updates too.
