Huawei Nova Camera - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
I have a question.
I have a Huawei nova smartphone.
I am also an active youtuber.
I often use my Huawei Nova to take video footage on the go, because it has a pretty good 4K camera.
The annoying this is the 10 minute video recording limit.
Is there a way to bypass it?
I googled, and also checked all the settings on my device, but i can not seem to find it.
Thanks!

Iphone like slow-mo feature for oneplus?

Is there any app for oneplus one, that can actually slow down just parts of a video.
I know oneplus as slow motion video, but it actually captures the whole video in slow motion. Want something that can actually just slow down parts of it.????
I don't know of an app that has this, perhaps one of the dozen camera apps has this feature
But, I know for sure that a video editing program on your PC/Mac has this feature. Try looking in any of those, it's not ideal but after a little effort you ought to have a nice result

This is seriously Crazy by Vivo!!!

Okay this had to be the title for the thread as what i discovered about NEX is seriously crazy.
What i discovered is, that NEX's display can render much better colours both while watching videos and browsing images, but the built AI **** is decreasing the quality of the display by reducing the saturation and a bit of sharpness.
How i discovered this: While i was browsing some 2K videos on NEX youtube app, i watched on video which is a 2K HDR 10 video and it looked completely off on the NEX display. It looked completely greyed out and horribly pale and i right away knew that the built in AI is doing something wrong. So, to further confirm this, i downloaded this app called NewPipe, which streams youtube videos and i saw that the same video which was looking horrible on the stock youtube app is looking really nice on this app. In fact the colours were looking as good as it looked on my Note 8. I was super surprised for a moment as i never thought NEX's display is capable of matching the Note 8's display in terms of colours and sharpness. So, once i was sure that its the AI thats decreasing the saturation of the display while we watch any content using the stock app, i downloaded a Gallery app from play store to check if its doing the same thing to the pictures too and as it turned out, the colours of the same image looked so much more better on that third party gallery app than it did in the stock gallery app.
So, now what i really want to know is, how to switch this AI thing off. If not completely, i want to at least disable it while watching videos and browsing images. I seriously dont know why has Vivo done this, as it is not doing any good to the display. In fact its bringing down the actual performance of the display which would have affected their sales over all. I am sure there would have been people comparing the Note 8 or S9's display to NEX and would have changed their decision based on it and one famous reviewer has compared it against the S9 plus and he clearly says the NEX's display cant match to the S9's, which is not at all the case.
I am super sensitive about colours and i really really happy that NEX can deliver colours as good as my Note 8, which was my only complain. While i am super happy after discovering this, i am equally restless to figure out a way to disable that AI thing on certain apps. You guys too can do this test and see the results for yourself. Let me know if anyone of you can find a solution for this.
Also, attaching comparison pictures of the display colours while using the stock gallery app against using a third party app.

I too noticed this while putting wallpapers on mobile.
From 1st day I am using Google's gallery app i.e. Photos , while pictures looked brilliant in the app but whenever I set a picture as wallpaper , it looks dull.
Second time I noticed it when I saw Avengers on MX player, colors looked bright and punchy where as it's trailer on YouTube looked very dull in comparison.
Exactly!! Hope someone can find a solution for this. Such a shame they are restricting what this phone can deliver.

HOLLY CRAP!!! I looked at your pictures but really couldn't see it. I then did same test you did and I'm Blown Away. This is horrible. See the attached examples. We need to chase support on this one for sure. For reference..I used the YouTube app vs new pipe app. U also checked the stock photo gallery versus a replacement photo gallery and you can also see the difference there ....see the last pic

Can you compare both mobiles playing Netflix and Amazon prime?

I did and the colors look much better on the Note 8 and I am sure that the colours on the NEX can also look equally better provided someone finds out a way to turn of the AI thing.
I wish I can unsee it
If you want to really hate the AI, access YouTube in your mobile browser and then switch to request the desktop version. Then set it to a high resolution and look at the stunning quality.
I now seriously hate this AI!
Also just validated ..this is happening with the official and vanced versions of the YouTube app.
Tested:
- I installed older official YouTube apps - same issue
- I installed a few third party YouTube apps - all had beautiful color saturation
Jesus!!
What a mess.
Good that i'm always uninstalling all stock app and replaced them with third party for example for gallery i'm using Google Photo or Quick Pic with all my smartphone.
But must be some kind of spesific services related to AI that should remove via ADB that would be the best solution.
Anyone contact ViVo about this problem ?

I will be tomorrow with the photos and this forum presented as exhibits. I have been talking to vivo support on an off for the past week, so I suspect it will at least get logged.
I see the same problem. I used ES Explorer and default album with multitask to compare side by side. Really strange ...
I always use the QuickPic Since I got the device , However noticed the Bad quality with YouTube when I attempted to test a Video Playback . Mx player has better performance.
Lets Push Vivo Team to Correct this , There is a separate thread on XDA requesting them to release the source code.
Once they release the Source , I guess these problems will be Easily resolved.
Regards,
H
Also, you guys can use a third party app to set the wallpapers for both desktop and lock screen. It looks so much better when you do that. And if we should reach to Vivo on this. It's shame that their team has not checked on this, which is such a major thing.
Youtube and Youtube Vanced apps are playing video in 1080p HDR / 4KHDR mode , NewPipe is playing video in 1080p/4K Normal mode. you can check in video stream selection settings.

That's interesting. But where do you find those settings? On the youtube app or under phone settings?

Question Instagram/Social Media Optimization

Has anyone been able to test this yet? Do instagram stories and pictures still look bad when using this Samsung device. I know there were ramblings about social media app optimization for the camera but it has really died down recently. Anyone have input on this or tried out the phone with Instagram Tik tok and twitter.? Thanks in advance!
I want to know this too. I have seen some obscure videos on YT showing this, but i don't trust them.. I remember on my Huawei P20 pro snapchat activated the different zoom-cameras/lenses while zooming.. I've missed it since..
What I would like to know is if it comes preloaded with all of the Farcebook suite of apps? This is the most annoying part of owning a Samsung device.
Tl;dw: Instagram can use the ultra wide and 3x telephoto, snapshat supports all 4 lenses and night mode as well. finally up to bar. iphone has better video on snapchat due to being smoother

Info about Videography Pro

This app is not present on Xperia Mark II smartphones but it's possible to install it via apkmirror. I'm not an expert with photos and videos in general, i really shoot few photos in my life, and even less videos. But it's my curiosity about it: Is this app more user.friendly and easy to use compared to Cinema Pro? I have the 5 II and i admit that i have some difficulty with Cinema Pro. Usually i use Basic Camera for videos.
If i install Video Pro from apkmirror, i can be sure it works perfectly on 5 II without any bugs / lack of functionality and/or errors? Who knows, maybe someone more expert than me already tried this and noticed some problems with the app born for Mark III lines.
EDIT: sorry for posting this in wrong place.
Did you exhaust Cinema Pro capabilities?

uhm i have difficulty to use Cinema Pro. I'm asking if Video Pro is more easy, after all, for a beginner.
I apologize for my misunderstanding. I don't do videos but if I suddenly needed to, I would go to PhotoPro Basic, switch from photo to video, and do a video with very few variables.

i can't do that. Photo Pro version installed in Mark II series doesn't allow to use Basic Camera. I have the Camera separate from Phoro Pro and that's ok, i can do videos with that Camera but it's my curiosity to know more about Video Pro.

Yeah! Video Pro is more advanced than Photo Pro's video mode (or Basic camera) and easier to use than Cinema Pro with more controls but no Presets as that of Cinema Pro. I would say if you don't want something of Cinema quality Video Pro is far better than using Basic Video mode from either Basic camera or Photo Pro.
