Complete nonsense. The video quality competes with many high end cameras. Like I said from experience, the video quality is clearer than a Nikon p900 recording in slow motion. The video clearly shows that the object has distance and is in focus. To claim anything else is ignorant and deceptive.

How did you determine it's just a few ft. above the roof? If that were the case, it shouldn't appear to be higher than the power pole. It was recorded on a note 5 in slow motion.
Please provide examples of other objects appearing from no where while in the same amount of lighting. There was no shaded area just before it popped into existence.
Anyway, the Samsung Galaxy Note5 tops out at 2160p resolution, but it can also do QHD video, 1080p at both 30fps and 60fps and 720p video at up to 120fps (that's handled by the Slow Motion mode). The 120fps video needs slowing down via a video editor such as the one on board the Note5 or one on your computer. The frames are all there, it's just that it's not slow-mo.
The slow motion on the Note 5 is UTTER SH1T compared to the iPhone. The Note 5 at least has sound on the slow motion now, but it's LOW RESOLUTION (720p max), but even lower quality than normal 720p would be due to the reduced exposure time for each frame (ends up looking muddy); and it's captured at 120fps and played back at 15fps (so it still looks choppy, not smooth).
I'm pretty sure the Note 5 has 240 fps slow mo in 720p, but that's by recording at 120 fps and playing back at 15 fps. I know the iPhone 6 has 240 as well, but smoother because it was actually captured at 240 fps.
