Apple iPhone 5S Slow Motion doesn't capture 720p Video


After all the hype around the so called Slow Motion video mode, it is time to see what it is worth.

The iPhone 5S does deliver slow motion 720p video at but the trick resides in its recording which is not set at 720p despite the new A7 chip.
Here is how it is done.
GsmArena has compared 720p footage from a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 to the iPhone 5S when it's recorded Slo-Mo video, allegedly at 720p resolution as well. The result is stunning and evidently something is missing from the Apple flagship.



The next shooting was realized at 480p from the Note 3 and then the video was upscaled to 720p. This time, the devices play at the same level.


GsmArena has also release the full frames from the shooting. From left to right : the iPhones 5S, the Note 3 at 720p and the Note 3 at 480p upscaled to 720p :



The shooting capability is not as good as advertised. From viewing videos on your iPhone's small screen, it might not be that obvious but when you watch them from your computer or TV, well, that is another story.

But the iPhone 5S video Slo-Mo has a main flow because when you extract those videos, they will be played at 120 fps, so in case you can't slow the videos on your TV, you won't actually see slow motions footages. On your computer, play videos 4X slower to get the trick done.
It sure would  have been nice if Apple had managed to make the iPhone 5S outputs slow motion videos at 30 fps processing the change from 120 fps within the device.
