Vivo X300 base model (not the pro) - question about improving the quality of the audio recording while taking a video.
Hi
I have a question please about improving the audio recording while taking a video.
from Youtube reviews I've seen I wasn't impressed with the audio recording capability of the X300, there seem to be noise filtering algorithms used which make voices sound somewhat robotic and environmental sounds get cut off.
I've contacted Vivo support over email, asking whether there is a way to improve the quality of the audio recording and they've listed two options that can be toggled which might affect the result, I don't have the device as I'm at a stage of considering it, if you have the device, could you please check whether you see those toggles on your device?
thank you!
"Open the Camera app and switch to Video mode.
Tap the “≡” (Menu) or Gear icon in the top right corner.
Select Settings if it doesn't open the dropdown menu directly.
Look for the following toggles:
3D Sound Tracking / Audio Focus: When enabled, this uses algorithms to enhance the sound of the object in focus while reducing background noise.
Erase Noise: Found under advanced camera settings, this is often the specific toggle for noise reduction algorithms. If your audio sounds "robotic" or over-processed when zooming, try turning this OFF.
Wind Noise Reduction: Depending on your specific software version (Funtouch OS or OriginOS), there may be a separate toggle for wind filters here as well.
Important Note on "Raw" Audio
Currently, vivo's software (as of January 2026) does not provide a single button to "disable all filtering" for a completely raw audio file. To get the most natural sound:
Turn OFF "3D Sound Tracking" and "Erase Noise."
Switch to Pro Mode: If you are in the "Pro" video mode, you may have more granular control over the microphone pickup pattern, though some algorithmic cleanup remains mandatory."
