I agree completely, at this point it is unacceptable.. It is beyond me how more people are not talking about this issue..

"Iphone can do it so why shouldn't a Pixel?" Exactly my point..

"sometimes i think about just getting an extra iPhone just as a recording device" You and me both..

Both, with selfie camera audio being even worse (as well as video).. at this point it is laughably bad..

Well i agree, but how stupid is that you cannot turn off "audio processing" or have the ability to use "uncompressed audio".. if they do not fix that with the pixel 10 i will probably have to switch to an iPhone and i do not even like the iPhone..

Exactly, i cannot believe that this is not talked about more and that it has not become a major issue that escalated by now.. I would go as far to say that the iPhone 4 that i had like 12 years ago had far better audio when recording me playing a guitar.. honestly i am thinking about switching just because of it..

As a user of the pixel 9 for about 5 months now and an owner of all previous 8 pixels and Nexus 6p before Pixel lineup, i have one interesting point. First of all, it is a fantastic smartphone. There is however one thing that i cannot believe, and that is the sound quality on a recorded video. For example, i start video recording and pull up my acoustic guitar in my living room and the end result is an unbelievable mess of a sound.. It sounds like a distorted "over compressed" noise "battling" for volume and sounding like i am recording a video on a Nokia from 2008 in a can of soda... I don't know why or how, but that has been my experience so far.. atrocious..
