@bonovox, pt020,
wow u both r having the same static noise issue, i thought most of the handsets are affected by this. but, now i came to know that all handsets r having this issue. i can't believe it. till now nobody knows this is related to hardware/software failure, even SE also keeping silent.
the noise is not only in video recordings, but, it seems almost there all the time. i think.
u can hear the noise by removing the back cover and keep ur ear near to the earphone jack in the upside-back while the phone is in idle mode.
someone reported that noise is gone when the phone is connected to the usb port of PC/laptop or power charger.

I don't think, this is a big issue (until now) except for few video shooters, who have to shoot video in silent environment.

i didn't forget u, i thought atleast u r the luckiest person to get a good set without this noise issue.
what i've to tell. mmmm... everybody facing the same issue. again shame on
. without proper testing how they came to release this mobile.
yes, this is not a big issue for u(adnan). but, everybody is facing the same issue means then it's really a big issue.
here i copy paste some infos. from SE forum on how to test ur mobile plz, read and post ur comments.
"THE PROBLEM
The electrostatic noise is almost always there when device is active (we've tested it earleir and noise is there even when screen is off)!!! The video-recording just captures it, that part works perfectly, the problem is the noise... However, it's best to describe the noise with a vid (my favourite, with a very old official comment...):

HOW TO TEST
So to test if you're (un)lucky (TEST A) you can shoot a video in relatively silent environmaent and play it back on above average volume AND/OR take the following short steps:
TEST B
1. Make and keep your screen active/lit (it's easy e.g. start camera app... not essential, but that's the easiest way)
2. Put your device very close to your ear - that part where you can find the jack's hole
3. Listen to the insect-like electrostatic noise there...
For me it's frightening to listen to this, I'm afraid it ruins lifetime of the phone!
Remark:
-when USB is plugged in AND connected to a charger/laptop - the noise is gone: seems like grounding of a bizarre interference.
Very likely, but not 100% certain other findings:
-The headphone jack's unplugged/plugged state don't alter the noise
-It's not really screen, rather activity related. Active screen strongly correlates with more intensive operation, but not exclusively, the noise can be reproduced with the screen off!
-Unlikely it's the battery: other types of SE mobile phones use the battery type EP500 as well, seemingly without this noise
-Unlikely it's the processor: very limited sound can be heard during boot process, which is very intensive for the processor
-I couldn't test it, but reported: noise is gone when CPU is at nearly max. load: cca. 99%
