Hey Sarah
I bought an iphone 8 recently, and I am facing the same flickering issue as specified by Eltohamy.
And answering your queries -
1) Well , the screen flickers and you get the same flicker in the recorded video as well. It should record just like a normal video (which records just fine with no flickers).
It flickers at a steady rate and all through out the video. I Just uploaded a slo-mo video , I hope this gives you a better insight of the issue - movie_20180103125651.mov - Google Drive
2) I am filming the video in a well lit room. The flicker also exists when I shoot videos outside in normal lighting but not as much as compared to the room recording. Anyways , it should not flicker in the first place !
3) I have the max Frame Rate and resolution (1080p @ 240 FPS), and the flickering does not go away upon changing resolutions/Frame rates.
Please take a look into this issue , I want it resolved ASAP!
Waiting to hear from you !

Hi Eltohamy,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. It looks like no one has responded yet to your question. If you could provide the following information, it may help the community respond:
1. Can you describe in more detail what you are seeing? Is the flickering constant, or intermittent? Does it flicker at a steady rate, does it pulse, or does it appear in irregular spurts?
2. If you change the frame rate or the resolution when using the slow motion feature, does it appear to change the flickering?
3. Where are you filming these videos? If you test it by filming a slow motion video outside under natural light, do you still see the same flickering?
Cheers!
hi, not sure if you had a reply. My iPhone X does the same, as does my 7+.
i first thought it was an issue with he Beta iOS im running, but my checking with others on normal iOS and with various phones i can say that its the same on all devices.
if im honest, i think this is to do with the lighting within your building. when you go to normal daylight the flicker will go. Its the low quality tube lighting that causes the flicker. you see it a the frame rate slo motion runs at.
hope that helps.
Thank you ! I did a little research for the same and found out that florescent bulbs cause the flickering issue. Shooting video out of the home fixes the flicker !
