The problem with my problem with my S23 ultra is the sound is muddy/muffled when videoing live bands. My Huawei P20 pro recorded this much better, so do the cheaper Samsung phones that my friends use. The only thing I haven't tried is removing the case. The microphone holes are not covered however.
