There are just 2 video players on Android. MX Player and others. If it's not MX Player, it can never be like MX Player. God knows the number of video players I've downloaded on playstore

I thought the same too until I discovered XPlayer. It's far better than MX player & supports all formats without the need for any codec download, you should give it a try

I don't understand what you mean by "real life testing". Maybe you need to read more about how DXOMARK carries out their tests. These are professional photographers who carry out tests in all sorts of conditions; night, day, sunset, twilight, etc, snapping and analyzing close to 1500 pictures per device.

I think it is better to listen to them than base your judgment on how you feel. They take great pain to gather all the facts.

You can't even compare YouTube reviewers like MKBHD with their review.

DXOMark is really comprehensive.

There's a MrWhoseTheBoss video about DXOMark that I think you need to see. It explains why DXOMark total score isn't the be all and end all for smartphone photography.

In any case, real life testing means you should check your photo gallery to see what kind of photos you take the most and in what scenario. It means you should take that into account and check DXOmark for the points given to that category coz that's what concerns you the most, rather than the overall score of a test, of which OEMs have access to the testing rig before it gets to DXOmark desk.

It means if you're in field work and you take a lot of photos outdoors, the best camera for you may not be the best for someone else who's always in the kitchen office using natural light.

Similarly, if you're young(at heart), hip and social media savvy, you probably don't open your camera app as frequently as you do Insta-stories and Snapchat. This means you can't possibly rate Android cameras over iPhone cameras. You'd be surprised how many people fall into this category. At the end of the day, the points that DXOmark attributes to each category is based on their own discretion, is it not?

Every once in a while I have to shoot some small clip of video on my Pocophone and it doesn't even come close to the iPhone 6 Plus. So if it's youtube you're into, heck just leave Android alone. Can't wait to have a feel of the S10 tho, probably change my mind about Android video recording, who knows. Mate 20 Pro didn't btw.

From experience, it tends to fail over time unlike many of those built in the early days. Try testing with another phone to be sure. Sadly, Rock Zircon lacks durability.
NB: Also recheck your sound settings just to be double sure.
I had to pull it out a little before the sound could come out. It's useless to me now as it keeps shaking.
