TL;DR

Pixel 11 series users are reporting an issue with Video Boost.

Bursts of static noise appear at intervals in videos recorded with the feature enabled.

The issue may have something to do with an Audio Zoom bug.

As we move further away from the launch of the Pixel 11 series , Google’s latest and greatest handsets are getting into more hands. That means a growing number of people are now putting the smartphones through their paces to see what they can do. Some users who were testing out the video recording capabilities have discovered a strange and frustrating issue with zoomed-in video.

One Redditor who upgraded to the Pixel 11 Pro XL says they attended a house show the other night to test out the camera. When they reviewed their recordings, they noticed “static bursts” every five seconds. According to the poster, this issue only appeared on videos where Video Boost was enabled.
