Crisp, but lack of OIS makes for really choppy videos if you don't have a steady hand. The EIS helps a little but not much
The video image quality is great however, the lack of OIS really shows and audio quality when recording heavy bass is like nails to a chalkboard. Unfortunate for those who came from a Nexus 5 will have to endure another year of static bass audio.
The video quality is not bad but i can see same strange lines when i record a video
Does anyone's nexus make a noise when focusing almost like a low clicking? You really need to put your ear up to the camera to hear it, mine makes it and if I watch the video playback loud enough I also hear it.
Well, video quality isn't so bad honestly.

There's a cover of a song, and throughout the entire video - you can hear faint and constant clicking noises. The room where it was recorded is dead silent, so I'm not sure where it's coming from but it's annoying!
Video quality is excellent. However shooting at Higher frame rate (120 or 240) there is some pixelation on the screen even though resulting video doesn't show that.
There is one thing, if you are shooting slow motion video and go to review your video and then come back to camera, it defaults back to normal speed back. You have to select slow motion mode again everytime you exit out of camera viewfinder screen.

sounds good but what is that clicking....are you saying you did this recording and you heard nothing of the sort with your human ear while recording it live?
assuming you have a human ear??
Did a test side by side next to a Z3 Compact, camera was MUCH better.
digital stabilization is terrible, ur better off just turning it off. Its just to wobbly and unnatural.
and I get a little bit of white noise on recordings, when recording in quiet areaa.
but I like the recording more then the Note5 that I have as well, note does shoot birhter videos, but softer and less contrast. Especially in lower light where note produces unrealistic images.
Is there any app to view the video frame by frame similar to iPhone?

Am I correct in saying the audio is mono and cannot be recorded in stereo ? It was the same on the nexus 6 also.
disappoint that no 60fps option on stock app
I need to install "Open camera" to record video frame by 60fps

Hi,
I am considering the Infuse since the Arc seems a bit too small (I'm using a Dell Streak atm) and I would like to ask some questions about this phone.
1.Most of the phones I've own have a big problem when recording videos during the night or in low light conditions; they tend to drop/skip frames since the camcorder tries to compensate for the lack of light, resulting in very choppy/blurry videos especially for HTC devices. Does the Samsung Infuse follow this trend and are you satisfied with the quality for night/low light movies?
2.I've read that there is also a continuous autofocus for the cam - if you zoom while recording a video, does the camera re-focus or is the video grainy/pixelated?
3.How does the speaker sound? Is it on the low or high volume? I mean, does the music sound clear/crisp and loud, or does it need some boosting in a next firmware?
Thanks for your help!!
Answer
In low light the camera on the infuse performs as well as my Canon Rebel $400 digital camera. This goes for video and stills. The zooming is digital. At 8mp you can zoom pretty far before getting grainy, but as with ALL cell phone cameras you will never be able to take a photo of a college football game when you're sitting in the stands, it just can't zoom that far. The zoom is better than any phone camera I have ever seen, save one device that was primarily a camera and had a klunky phone afterthought. The speaker is loud and crisp. Very decent for playing a tune while I get ready in the morning when I can't use headphones. Hope the info helps.
Thanks for your input - it's really what I was hoping for before considering this phone. This was very helpful!! Thank you!

WORSE microphone during videos EVER!
maybe it's just with my phone (A2005) but it's really not sensitive at all. it barely catches the entire ambiance and voices and its volume is very low!

mine too. the best video performance i can get is with "cinema 4k" app, turning everything to max (200mbps video) and then enable flat profile. the videos look awesome but the audio is crap. maybe we can fix this in mediaprofiles.xml to a higher bitrate?!
Just returned from Roskilde Festival and the conclusion is as follows. The video is fine, but the sound is terrible. All video recorded at the concerts is useless because of distorted sound. Very disappointing, when some of my friends have older phones with much better results.

The noise suppression is the problem. It's set way too high. I encourage you to report this to oneplus. I already did. It's the same with OP3 sadly.

My only complaint of this nice piece of gear is the video recording feature.
There is no [email protected] recording option. Even the recording quality in good light conditons at 30fps (1080p) is not smooth and really choppy
Have not see any advantage of the 4axis OIS future.
Hope to see developers that can fix this issiue with software updates.
I think the best video recording quality has the Samsung Galaxy S6/S7/Note series and the Iphone 6/6s line.
Hope to see other opinions and good nwes

Keep dreaming!!! You should have thrown your cash at the other phones instead.
Guys, I keep seeing constant complains and whining about this phone and yet the only person to blame is your self. Read the god damn reviews !!!!!
all reviews point that video recording is just ok, nothing great... OIS is almost non-existent...
no software update will fix that...
read more carefully next time

It has a great video recording quality for it's price. OIS and auto-focus is better than the more expensive flagship op3.
watch?v=Z8H5kOnryEo
OIS is clearly there, try recording while driving a motorcycle. There will be no, or at least minimal, glowy images as in non-OIS enabled devices. Color rendering is still the best, S7 and 6S is behind for this one. Lighting is natural, however you may prefer S7's "always daylight" choice (i.e., it will show bright light even in dark environment), but that's completely preference. I choose natural. Slow motion is great, even if only single [email protected] choice (slowed down 4x from 120fps) I found it very useful to record fast motion videos to see it later in detail.
this is the worst think in this device
it cant shoot a good video
get a lot off blurry result every time video
For me its 75/100.
Miui makes it complicated to chenge to 4k, fullhd slow-mo quickly. Timelapse feature is great. There were problems with rotation for camera but software update solved them. So it is not great but nice to see they are improving littlle by little.

So far I'm highly impressed with the video quality. Comparing the 4k to Samsung for instance they both take really good quality videos. (and huge videos). But the fact that the Image Stabilization on this blows away the competition and it's SOFTWARE based is INSANE. One of the first things I did after I got the phone set up was to walk upstairs while filming 4k and then quickly moving back down them and the optical stabilization (although it gets slightly bumpy on the way down from how fast I was moving) it was the best I've ever seen on any phone.

Sorry to link to reddit, but I mainly post on reddit.
I also made a comparison of the videos in low light. Here is the thread if you guys are interested:

I just feel like the more information out there on this issue the better.
So far in test videos the mic sounds really muffled.

What were the settings on both cameras for each video?
Took a video at night low light conditions
Looks like a white bug on the video .
But it's just noise from the camera not a bug.
Tried again Dave enjoy bug thinking about getting unit replaced.
Has anyone else noticed this effect?
It bounces stuff on screen when I'm recording.
My wife's low light video (S8 Plus) and daughters 7 Plus) crap on my Pixel XL.
Guys, is anybody annoyed with the twitchy autofocus? I was shooting on S7, ois was not comparable with Pixel's eis, but autofocus was 100% accurate and lightning fast, you won't be able to notice it working. What's wrong with Pixel's AF? Is it curable?

I'm wondering the same thing.
I came from a Nexus 6P and the video on the latter was just brilliant!!! Specifically to low light video, it was crystal clear!!! I do a lot of metal shows records and this is very big for me...
The minute I got the XL, tried a low light video record, wow, what a disappointment!!! The video in low light and even in mid light, has a sort of smudge, like grey halo or if lens are not clean up and adding to that there's a lot of noise in the video. I did not record anything from concerts, but I'm very apprehensive... I did not expected this... not after having a 6P and knowing that this phone is one year more recent than the 6P.

I just saw this and this is the exact problem that I experience when recording in low light!!!
I also learned on google products forums, that using a 3rd party app to record video, using a different ratio/resolution can help a lot!!!
For instance, with Open Camera, if recording a video in 1440x1080 resolution (it stays at a 4:3 ratio, the same aspect when taking a photo at 12.3 MPixel) then the recording is so much better!!! The bad of Google Camera is that it's not possible to change in between many video recording resolutions. Also, in Google Camera, 4K video recording is a little better than 1080p, because it doesn't have the grey/smudge halo.
If only knew this and my 6P didn't had the battery shutoff problem, I wouldn't never get a XL !!!!
The video recording is pretty good, I usually record at 720p60 and even though it's not the sharpest video I've ever seen, it's decent.
Though at 4K it looks great, but I don't see a big improvement from the Nexus 5X which I come from.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on it; if you use it or not, the video quality, maybe even some of your own cool clips.
It works great in well lit places. If it's anywhere near low light conditions I noticed its rather unclear. Overall its perfect for outside in daytime

Yes for 120 fps
It shoots amazing videos in high light environments.
But when it's not so bright, there's significantly noise on the video... Sometimes can't even see clear pictures...
The best part of this camera is the normal mode, it takes photos super fast, very unlikely to get blurry pictures.
I wished the user had more options with the slow motion. For example 240FPS continues as most top of the line phones support out of the box and a longer burst 480FPS option. Basically the buffer that gets filled using 960FPS could last twice as long with half the frame rate. The slow motion would still be incredible but with the added benefit of twice the action.
Hopefully when ROM's come along someone can unlock some cool new features.

at 960fps it records video at 720p resolution. You will get great videos only at high lighting conditions. Anyways it looks great
I have also posted a youtube video link and for your info...... it took a total of 4-5 balloons to get it right.
Hi chitshiv, great work capturing your video using slow motion. I've just picked up the xzs, g8232, and was wondering if you are also finding the slow motion capture display to be ridiculously grainy when trying to film indoors? I've yet to take it outside to see if it is any clearer. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Works great in a good light like daytime outdoor, I recorded some amazing videos when playing basketball, but lots of unacceptable noisy point in low light.
awesome!!!
