Which video setting is best?
Stick with 1080 in my opinion. 4k is still being adopted and chances are you don't even have a 4k display. There is no point in recording in a resolution that you don't have a display for due to its larger size in recording 4k

But in the future all TV will be 4k or better. If I'm taking baby videos of my son I would like them on be 4k. So, again, what is everyone using?

I don't think there'll be 4K on phones for awhile, 1440p has yet to be adopted with the exception of G3. Technology is always changing and it seems like you've already made your decision so why ask? Use 4K if u want, its up to you honestly.
By the way you're speaking about technology becoming old, by the time your son grows up 4K will become obsolete and another standard will be the standard. 4K prices are still very expensive and is not as mainstream as 1080p as it'll take time to adopt.
True but 4k would be more future proof than 1080p.
I guess the real question is what is the difference between 4k dci Vs 4k uhd?

UHD for Ultra HD
DCI for Digital Cinema Initiative
I could be wrong but I believe uhd is 30fps and DCI is 24fps. So for highest quality, choose uhd.

4k on 1080p TV's will look sharper (in a sense) as the picture is scaled to 1/4.
If the phone had true 1080p @60fps with sound, then that would be the best recording format..

Actually, UHD is not real 4K, DCI is real 4K. If you want actual 4K use DCI.

It's an ever growing problem that manufacturers are incorrectly marketing UHD as 4k when it isn't actually 4k at all.

This post doesn't make sense. The OnePlus One does record in 4k, and that's why we're discussing recording modes. Are you talking about 4K Display's on phones?

He's talking about displays. Obviously. Because look at the post he's quoting.

This is exactly how I see it. However I'm still recording in 1080p. Most of the stuff I film isn't worth storing, so 1080p is fine.
If I would go for 4k I would choose UHD as this is the standard for TV. DCI is true 4k but only used for cinematic recording, so I guess this means black borders on your 4k TV.
At least this is how I understood it, it does not mean it's right [emoji317]

I see a lot of people saying the same but for the life of me I just can't understand why. In the future when you have a UHD TV would you not want to see your recordings in UHD instead of HD?
I don't have a UHD TV yet but I do have a 4k TV but I would always record in the highest quality I can.
Btw, right now UHD seems to be broken.

That article's stupid. Plus it's three years old. I don't care how intelligent the author attempts to portray himself as by quoting a lot of math, I can and do see a difference between 1080P and 4K on a standard size tv screen. What a load of rubbish.

Another load of [email protected] from CNET. Anyone that looks at the two screens beside each other can see the difference unless your eyesight is bad.

Strictly resolution wise I see no difference. You may see other differences in terms of brightness and color reproduction but you can get that on newer or higher end 1080p displays.
BTW, the article was updated in May 2014.

Did you not read the article? With the app in question, it records at 3264×1836 (about 6mp) then upscales it to 3840×2160. Not true UHD/4K, of course. Recording is not 4K, but playback, technically speaking, is.
Still the quality resembles a 4k video

Because you're watching a 4K video on 1080 or 2K screen...
So I bought a phone and just arrived today its called XGODY S200 from ebay, I can't post link. The screen is 5" and with resolution QHD 540*960. I installed youtube app try to change the video quality and only shows up to 360. Is there anyway I can watch in 720p?

The simple answer is that you can't. The resolution for 720p is 1280×720. qHD (which is 540x960 AKA quarter HD) is different than QHD (which is 2560x1440 AKA Quad HD). qHD is a step below 720p.

I wouldn't mind if you hit that thanks button!!
The qHD vs QHD thing confused me for the longest time because Google thinks they are the same thing since the case of a letter in the search doesn't matter. I'm glad I could help.
I'm personally leaning towards the 1080p 60FPS video from my brief tests. It's SO smooth. I wish we had a 4K 60FPS option...
What does everyone else prefer?
I would record at 4K 30fps over 1080 60fps because 1080 60fps is blurry compared to all other modes. I personally prefer 1080 @30fps because i dont have any 4K compatible tvs or computers.

I dont either but its considerably sharper on my screens and allows for zooming

I've never noticed blur. Did you notice on the phone or when viewed on a larger screen?

On the phone for sure, I haven't looked on a larger screen lately as I sent my phone to google on an RMA. I get the new device in a day or so so I'll have to look then.

I do lol thats why I use 4k cuz i can zoom without messing up the video quality
Either way, 60fps makes me want to barf and looks too fake. Like when people use the 120fps filter on their TV's. I think with free storage, may as well use 4k @ 30. Although, I feel the image stabilization is stronger @ 1080
Hi guys,
I just wondering is it possible to record video on 1080p with 120fps or not?
Thanks

From the spec sheet: Super Slow Motion: 1080p video at 240 fps, 720p video at 480 fps
You don't get an option for 120fps.
So its a complete disaster, i really wanted this for making vlogs
