Google Introduces Enhancements to Video Enhancement Feature in Pixel 8 Pro

According to the latest report, Google has introduced enhancements to the “video enhancement” feature in Pixel 8 Pro, allowing users to easily enable it in specific situations. The “video enhancement” feature was initially released as part of the December Pixel Feature Drop update and has now been improved to provide a better user experience.

According to information published by Android Police, the camera application user interface now includes a new prompt that appears when recording videos in poorly lit environments. It encourages users to use the “video enhancement” feature along with Night Sight mode, which is different from the original message displayed when Night Sight was introduced. The new prompt is smaller and less intrusive, making it easier to activate the “video enhancement” feature in relevant situations.

It’s worth noting that the “video enhancement” feature is not activated automatically, which is why the prompt is important to remind users of its availability. This feature aims to improve video quality by adjusting dynamic range, sharpness, colors, and stabilization. However, in order for the “video enhancement” feature to work properly, backup needs to be enabled in the Google Photos app.

An interesting characteristic is that the “video enhancement” feature does not work locally on the Pixel 8 Pro. Recorded videos are transferred to Google Cloud servers, where each frame is processed using HDR Image+ technology to improve video quality. The transfer process is why the “video enhancement” feature needs to be enabled every time the camera app is launched.

In summary, this simple user interface change makes using the “video enhancement” feature even more convenient for Pixel 8 Pro users. Reported significant improvements in video quality in low-light conditions make the updated feature a valuable addition for Pixel 8 Pro owners.
