Has anyone tried it yet?

I used it the other night at my daughter's basketball game. It limits some of the settings you can use like the level of stability control. I did notice that it boosted the overall contrast to the video. It was typical high school gymnasium lighting, but it seems to have raised the contrast and did some sharpening of the video. I need to try it out on some natural light videos. Also, I'm going to a drone light show and would love to see how it's going to handle that.

Yep. It really did turn a mediocre home video in low light into something fairly decent. Better colours and depth. Am impressed. Only got my update last night for feature drop.

I've noticed while it was uploading and such it gets the phone a little warm. This was the first time I experienced it getting warm. Once it completes it cooled back down.

What about the audio? It's supposed to sound really good

Decided to check my phone. It appears to be on my P8P now. Early impressions are favorable.

Yes I have tried it.

- It takes a very long time to process a video. I recorded a 1 minute video and it took around 4 hours to process.

- I find it just blows out highlights and oversaturates colours in the day time and at night, it gets about as bright as the Galaxy S23U video.

- It's limited to 10 minute videos.

- You have to annoyingly go to the video section in the camera app, then press the settings button then turn it on every time you want to take a video boosted video. It's not one of the swipe options on the video settings.

It's better than the default video quality, but I don't think it's amazing. It just looks better because Pixels doesn't have great video to begin with.
