Some cheap LED bulbs flicker more than others. Daylight never flickers.

Why does my iPhone video flicker under lights?
Short answerMany indoor lights flicker at the mains frequency (50 Hz in Australia, the UK and Europe; 60 Hz in North America). If your frame rate doesn’t match, you see bands or flicker. In 50 Hz countries, try 25 or 50 fps: turn on Settings › Camera › Record Video › Show PAL Formats.
