We had our first "real" snowfall on friday night, so saturday the family went out sledding in our neighborhood. I grabbed the prime as i walked out to record some video. I took about 8 videos ranging from 15-60 seconds, 1080p, no settings changed.
I tried to play them today, and discovered only 2 of 8 videos had any sound. The rest were silent. Video quality was great, but i'm extremely disappointed by the lack of sound.
It's not the playback. I've tried them on the prime, over hdmi, and after transferred to another computer. theres just no audio. I've tried recording a few more videos and have not yet been able to reproduce it. The ONLY thing i can think of is that it was about 25 F outside, but it seems as though the first and last videos i recorded have sound, so i'm not real inclined to blame the temperature.
If you haven't done much video recording with your prime, i urge you to do some tests and see what you find.

I've recorded a few videos with Prime. ON CHRISTMAS of my daughter opening up her presents n stuff and of family. I haven't noticed what you said yet. The video quality was great and was very surprised at how well it picks up sound. It does have a good quality Mic. I initially recorded at 1080P till I realized that would be a waste really if most of my playback is on the prime itself. PRIME can output 1080p to HDMI but plays 720p perfectly on display. You can play a 1080p video on prime with no problem but it won't be true 1080p playback. PLUS 1080P videos take up too much space when recording. 720p looks great n takes up alot less space.
AS far as the issue you had, might of been a glitch or hiccup at that moment. LIKE you said, you haven't been able to reproduce the event. Where the videos that had no sound any longer or shorter than others?
thanks for the response. Point taken on 1080p...i have plenty of space on the prime, and all the larger displays in the house are 1080p so i figured why not. I didn't notice any size anomalies with the vids that had no audio.

I can't believe anyone would use a 10" tablet for taking video. I just use my smartphone...
JUST KIDDING! Seriously, I haven't noticed that issue either, but I haven't taken much video with mine. Let's hope it was just a temporary glitch. Hopefully the video is enough to have captured the moment--those come and go way too quickly.
My kids and I have taken many videos with both the front and back cameras. My kids love the video effects that came with the firmware update. I've not experienced any audio problems.
Are you kidding me? I have taken a lot of video on it and for a tablet, it take AWESOME videos. It handle low light better than cheapo camcorder out there. No sound problems at all.
OP --
Be sure (especially when outside with gloves on) that you're not covering the mic while you're holding it. I did that a few times with leather gloves and it pretty much muted the whole video.
Simple user error on my part, no fault of the tablet.

Were you taking video in portrait mode? The only way you could cover the mic the way you describe is in portrait mode since the mic is on the top of the device near the cameras. Maybe a snowflake fell on the mic.
So coming from an Xperia Z2 and also having played with my daughter's iPhone 6S, I was gutted when I started playing with LG's Slo Mo mode on the camera.
First thing is the whole clip is in slo mo. Slo mo video is so much better when mixed with standard speed video. Like watching somebody run at normal speed then slowing the video down as they do a mid air flip and then back to normal speed at the end. With LG you get a slow run, slow flip, slow finish, yawn.
Second is I can only play the slo mo clip in the LG video app. What? So if I want to share it, it's just a normal speed clip. It's pointless at this point to record things on friends request as they cannot watch in slo mo. At least have an export option, or like Sony have the original high frame rate video and the slow motion version to share.
Now I am really happy with the dual lens and manual mode of the G5, I'm just a little gutted on how basic LG have made the slo mo. Reading online some people talk about previous LG models having a slo mo similar that on the Xperias, if that's true then why such a lame effort for the latest phone?
Now I may be wrong so please feel free to tell I'm not using it right, I hope that's the case.
When replaying the video, tap the screen and you adjust the playback speed. Tap the pencil to edit the video and you can drag the two markers around to adjust the playback speed therein. You can also trim/delete the clip as a whole.
The saved video will have the speed changes. I've shared edited vids via text and facebook.
Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the Huawei Mate 9 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Anyone else notice a jitter in video recordings? I have several recordings where I see jitter.

what firmware are you on?
it is jittery. not like iPhone
Haven't noticed any jitter recording 4k videos. In fact they are much better than my Samsung S7 edge ones. Thanks to h265 codec used and much more portable and storable.
A video of my dog by night. Original video is at [email protected], but it seems the preview doesn't support it:

yes, my phone jitters when playing recorded videos. it looks like its very sensitive to movement or no stabilization?
***jitter is gone after recent firmware update tho***
I have jitter in 4K video recorded with my mate 9 , too
Huawei can fix this problem with next update ?
I think its software problem.
I think it not smooth,

I have an Exynos S9+ (SM-G965F) with no SD card, I'm using WQHD+ screen resolution and recording at UHD 3840x2160 30fps in auto mode. HDR is on auto and image stabilization is on.
I haven't done too much testing but all the footage I've recorded so far has been a stuttery mess.
My other issue is that the 4K recordings don't upload to youtube at 4K, they are all capped at 1080p and look pretty garbage on top of all the stuttering and distortion. I've checked with 10 second clips over 4 days to make sure it wasn't still processing. I've tried both direct uploads and moving files to PC and then uploading but it makes no difference.
One interesting thing to note is that when I play my own youtube video back on the S9 I get the option to watch at 1440p but that doesn't exist anywhere else.
If anyone has any helpful information I would appreciate it.
Mine has same issue. You need to either record 4k 30fps with video stabilisation turned off, or, 4k 60fps which automatically turns off video stabilisation. Video stabilisation is only software EIS anyways. The phone will still use the hardware OIS. For some reason sanding aren't able to get OIS and EIS to play well together.
This issue has been fixed in the latest update (BRE5 for my international device). I had it on my device too, but only in 4k 30fps. Now its fixed.

It is still a little bit clunky, the only resolutions I got the most stable shots are in FHD60 and FHD30 (without video stabilization). Surprisingly, FHD60 is not jerky at all, only sacrificing quality compared to 4k.

30 FPS 4K now recording fine without stutter or choppiness? That's great. I will test it myself. But I've started to prefer 60 FPS as it's much smoother than 30 FPS.

Is 4K60FPS still choppy and stuttering for you? 60FPS is fine for me.
I had the same problem before the BRE5 update, only with stabilization on and UHD30FPS, It's fixed now but I prefer 60fps and OIS either way.

Not anymore, but I am not getting smooth videos out of it. FHD60 seems to be the balance between more stable videos and without stuttering.
With 4k60, no stuttering but videos are unstable.
FHD30 with stabilization on is great too, but sometimes choppiness strikes.

Yeah, im recording at 60fps too, much smoother than 30fps. And if you keep your phone steady, OIS is enough for nice footage.
Hey guys can you confirm that HDR works only in 30fps video modes? I noticed difference while recording in4k60 and 4k30. Same with FHD60 and FHD30
That choppiness shaking and floating makes Samsung s9+ and basically all other Samsung's unusable.... My iPhone 6 plus feels like a professional camera vs this hyped up camera gimmick
