Poor audio quality while recording videos? - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Has anyone else had this issue? Bassy music in a nightclub sounds terrible. Is this normal? Never had this issue when I had my iPhone.

Its normal for a phone with a small microphone, its not really built for this type of tasks. What I usually do for my band videos is getting an external microphone the BOYA BYMM1 is cheap and a copy of the Rode Video Mic and it does a pretty good job

This is crap. I knew it was a good idea to sell my p20pro . There is no external mic for micro usb type c . That the "small" mic is a problem is nonesense. Newer iphones (the old were also bad) and nokia phones can handle loud and bassy sound excellent. Im no technician but i think its a softwareproblem too. Nokia and apple phones detect high soundpressure and autmatically lower the sensitivity. With my 8 year old nokia 808 i can stand literally IN the speaker and the sound was crystal clear. And the videoquality was by far better than ANY phone (except panasonic cm1) . Hoping for the nokia hmd penta cam phone to be sth good

Fyi . One of the biggest Technofestivals in germany. Nature One.

Sound quality

So, the Xperia Z was officially launched at a PR event in Dubai yesterday, and the price seems okay too (2499 AED, ~680 USD). I've seen concerns about the screen quality but will check that out myself when its out in stores (March). Can anyone who has the Z comment on the sound quality on the device ?
There is already a thread in Q&A.
What kind of sound quality are you talking about? Audio playback?
I'm concerned by the volume of the earpiece, and how loudly and clearly you can hear people during a phone call. In other words, what the X10 sucked ass at.
If you are concerned about audio check out the HTC One.
Stereo Front speakers, amps, amazing all around.
I've just received my phone from japan and the volume of the phone whilst playing youtube videos or music is appalling. It's hardly audible even at the highest setting. If you're wanting a phone with good speakers this is not the phone, you'll be highly disappointed. Other than the sound everything else on the phone is perfect. Great build quality etc. let me know if you want pictures or to know more about the phone id be happy to post
ya, I heard the speakers are compromised because of water proof. Guess I still got an option for head set which is what I use for my current phone.

Hardly audible? I wonder what you have done with my ears
It's not as loud as some other phones but it's still more than adequate. It's enough to wake me up in the morning (quite easily even) and the best thing is that it doesn't sound distorted even at the highest volume.

I may have over exaggerated with my statement xD. But to be honest it's loud speaker whilst playing music is poorer than an a Lg Optimus L3, I was forced to use the optimus L3 whilst waiting for my xperia z lol so I know full well what it sounds like it. Sound via the headphone jack is fine just the loud speaker sucks it would have problems waking me up but their is always vibration so it doesn't really bother me.

Well, that's a wrap with my interest in the Z. Nothing more annoying "to me" than a phone with crappy speakers.

if you have a iphone 5 and use the life proof case from fre that is pretty much the sound quality of the Xperia Z maybe slightly less Don't let that one feature prevent you from buying this fantastic phone it truly is amazing. And that's my honest opinion of the device ;D i'll upload a video for you guys of the sound quality
as I said guys here is the video of the phone sound volume via the loud speaker. If you guys have any requests on how I should record the phone please let me know this was recorded by a galaxy tab 10.1. It's actually not that bad as I previously mentioned please enjoy if you want me to play any other song let me know. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9V9UysM0hI&feature=youtu.be

Howdy, what is the in-call volume like with the earpeice? Loudspeaker is not a major issue for me, but in call volume must be good. My One X now is really quite bad in this regard.
Thanks

In call volumes are fantastic can't complain very loud and clear, had no issues with people not being able to hear me. if you know of any way I can test I wouldn't mind making a video for you ;] but trust me when I say it's good even when taking public transport people on the other end of the call could still hear me very clear without issues. I highly recommend this phone much better than the lg optimus g or galaxy s3 I previously owned. I aint just saying it because I own the sony xperia z haha just my honest opinion.
That's great news thanks no idea how you would do a video lol but if you say it's good then I'm happy.

Easily. It's a little less loud than most other phones but it's still loud. It's not exactly inaudible.
I can say the sound quality with ClearAudio+ is nice but it there is not the best. I have my Note 2 optimized with Neak Kernel and his tweaks (Wolfson) are great.. The equalizer from XZ but the hammer looks great and can be adjusted some. Moreover, the unit is still fresh with the time kernel and various mods and custom roms come naturally (I also gets to cook too for XZ)
I don't want to crash the party but the speaker is just lame, it's positioned at the right side bottom of the phone which means that when you hold the phone you will cover the speaker (left hand with your fingers, holding it with right hand isn't an option because the speaker is in the palm of your hand) The speaker is tiny and totally not loud, and when watching a video you can hear the sound come out of the right corner instead from the phone, it's very directional, i am very disappointed about this.
Also sound through headphones is not as good as i would have liked and certainly not as full sounding as with S3.

[Q] Headset Recommendations

I've tried several headphones with my LG G2 (T-Mobile) and people say they can barely hear me.
Can anyone recommend a good wired headset that is also good quality for music?
Thanks!
I ordered a Brainwavz R1 in-ear-headset with microphone last week from Amazon, I should be getting it today or the following days. I was told they are good quality with great sounding. I shall write a little review here after I used it for some days.

Try Sennheiser, had few models of past 4 years and every single one of them was top notch. Way better than what comes with G2 without any doubts.

I have these and find them quite enjoyable. Voice quality on the other side has never been a problem, even in light to moderate wind. Furthermore - the Klipsch application from the play store gives you a fair bit of customization for controlling button actions, opening apps, etc. I also know it works/is compatible on the LG G2 VS980.
http://www.klipsch.com/image-S4A-headphones/details
I use Rocket Player and found the sound to be balanced on the Flat EQ preset. If you crank the bass, I've noticed the low end won't distort even at high volumes, but that's not how I like to listen to music. It was fun to test it though.
Anyway, these get a 9.7 / 10 on my scale, especially considering the price.
These are excellent as well, but I didn't care for how they fit. http://www.headphone.com/headphones/etymotic-mc2.php
Hope it helps.

Very Low Volume/Music

Hi guys I just bought my Note 4....I thought it would be a beast device...but it kinda sucks at Music department. Volume is too low vs. My LG G3. kinda disappointed.
I actually have the opposite effect. The music is too loud to stand when near full volume. Much louder than my S4

My current phone is a LG G3 and it is probably the best Android phone for music. I had the M8 prior to this and I feel the G3 is ever so slightly better for sound, and as well it is a much better phone. The only phone I have heard that was better than the LG G3 was the IPhone 6+, I owned one briefly but I ended up having to return it.
I am considering a Note 4 but I am beginning to think it is not enough of an upgrade over the G3 to make me happy. I will just have to wait until I can see it in person and judge then.

My wife has a G3. Its a nice phone for sure and right for her but I prefer the power user phone. Not to say one is better than the other, its all in personal taste. Thus far I am really enjoying my Note 4. the G3 is a top of the line phone but just not versatile enough for me.
I'm finding the music from the loudspeaker seems to be loud enough. My ringtone however isn't loud enough when getting a call. When I change the volume through the settings however it's louder than when I get an actual call. It's very strange and quite annoying as I can't figure out how to fix the ringtone volume
I've just been changing the notification sounds and they are louder than when they go off as notifications.

Did you think the LG G3 is better than the M8 audio-wise? Interesting - how does the LG audio compare to the Note 4 please?
Is it still ok when watching you-tube videos as well for instance?
Thanks
I hate the G3 screen. That makes it a no go for me. The Note 4 is a beautiful beast!

Just to be clear I am talking about music playback through attached headphones: Sennheiser IE8, B&W C5 etc. The G3 has extremely good music playback especially through poweramp. It is the only phone I know of that can play native hi res files 24/96 etc. without downsampling. You can check the GSM Arena review for further info on its sound quality: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g3-review-1086p7.php . They measure it as the cleanest for sound output.
So in my case I am looking for something that is comparable to the LG G3 sound wise, but also brings other improvements to the table. I'm interested in the Note 4 because of the display, but if the sound quality is a step back then I know I would not be happy with it. I don't know what the Note 4 sounds like as I have still not seen a demo, but as soon as a local store gets one I will take my headphones in and do a little side by side comparison.

The way they have it set out of the box is rather dull. I suppose they have set it like this for the sake of battery life. If you do the contrast fix and up the brightness slightly you can get that same sort of contrasty pop other phones have, but it is not going to be as saturated as amoled.
My LG G3 sounded better vs. my Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Using the native built-In speaker. LG G3 is much louder , fuller ,bass-ER{LOL), clearer than my Note 4. I always listen to my music just playing it through the built in speaker. Aside from that I love my Note 4. I'm still trying to use my warranty on my G3 , the screen has obvious vertical lines in high brightness setting, it looks like a digitizer or something...but it sucks.... I hope they can replace the screen or fix it.
I have both M7, G3 and Note 4, and I reckon the best sound quality is M7, the loudest is G3, in the middle range is Note 4. And both phones have been tuned with Viper4.
Sound is quite loud on my N910U, but thats for my standard.
Please go check out 'Permanent red tint on screen' i posted in general section. Let me know please if anyone having similar issue.

I played with my note 4 vs a LG G3 vs HTC M8 vs Z3 in store same song.
I set N4, G3 and Z3 equalizer scales all to zero and just turned the bass to full in custom mode.
HTC M8 doesnt have this so I just turned on bass mode.
The M8 is clearly the loudest by a far distance, the note 4 is next with the g3 not far behind then the z3 behind that.
I think the note 4 is very loud and GSM arena agrees
The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 performance in our audio quality test was almost identical to that of its predecessor - the Galaxy Note 3.
The phablet aced the first part of our test, where it had to show how it works with an active external amplifier. The Galaxy Note 4 achieved excellent scores top to bottom and garnished them with nicely high volume levels - not HTC high, but good enough to keep pace with the rest.
Plug in a pair of headphones and some stereo crosstalk creeps in - it's not too bad, but notably worse than some competitors, once again, from the HTC lineup. Take those out however and the Galaxy Note 4 can match or beat just about every smartphone out there.
Frequency response Noise level Dynamic range THD IMD + Noise Stereo crosstalk
Samsung Galaxy Note 4 +0.01, -0.04 -96.6 93.4 0.0015 0.0086 -94.2
Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (headphones attached) +0.03, -0.02 -96.8 93.5 0.011 0.035 -55.2
Note 4 speakers sucks to be honest, after 10 the loudspeaker was pretty bad

On quality headphones using the Power Amp app the Note 4 has the best sound reproduction including when playing back HD music. Compared to M8 and LG G3

See my views above
The company who has the loudest sounding speaker on their phone probably doesn't care about the safety of it's users. Taming a speaker down has nothing to do with being "premium" or "non-premium". Also, remember the Note 4 is supposed to be a somewhat professional, business tool, not a boom box. Although, I think that the volume should be regulated when headphones are being used, I think that the device should at least put out acceptable volume for when you're watching a video using the speaker on the back.
Fwiw, audio quality is very good using spotify extreme settings and a trusty pair of klipsch s4i's. While not quite as loud as my iphone 5, the audio is certainly extremely clean and good definition.
What the m8 is the king of sound once you flash Harmon kardon adsp
My sprint version using headphones is loud as hell without any root or audio tweaks
I think Note 4 sound a bit tinny compared to my old Note 2.
Sound through headphones is amazing using exynos model

Speaker quality

Does anyone else not like the quality of the speakers? When playing games, the speakers sound muddled. The speaker in the Galaxy S4 sounds clearer. Are there any settings I can change to make things sound better, or are the speakers just poor?

I think the speaker on the Droid Turbo totally sucks.
On the higher frequencys, it sounds really cheap.
I think the Moto X 2014's speaker is much much better.
As someone who owns a myriad of high end audio equipment and has about 35gb of FLAC music on his Turbo...
The speaker is actually pretty loud for media. Turn off the EQ like mentioned and it sounds just fine with MX Player and movies. Highs sound just like any other phone speaker which means they're not great but either is the low end. Coming from the One M7 this is a slight downgrade in quality but I've found that it's just as loud.
As many have pointed out, in calls the phone is too low. That's simply software tweaking, though.
As for the headphone jack, it actually puts out more power than the S5 and Moto X (2014) in terms of raw measurable current. With that being said it doesn't mean its any louder or clearer. With PowerAmp I'm content with the headphone jack. It powers my custom molded Triple Fi Pro's with ample headroom to spare. It also powers my Audio Technica headphones just fine.
Headphone SQ is right on par with any other stock software. Still way behind a phone with Viper Audio but I'm still hopeful it will come to us eventually

Im not getting the same results over here. :crying:
If I play the "Orion" and the "Moto" ringtones on the Moto X 2014 and on the Droid Turbo, they sound MUCH better on the Moto X 2014.
The Moto Assist, as the ringtones, screeches much more on the Droid Turbo than on the Moto X 2014.
Im really disappointed with that, because one of the main reasons that I bought this phone (as many) is the Moto Assist.
Listening some screeches at every ringtone, music, alarm, or Moto Assist use is painful.
I already went to a mall, and tested if the problem is on my unit, but I discovered that its a model issue. Already tried to turn off the audio EQ. It gets a bit better, but the screeches remain.
All the other stuff (screen, performance, battery life, etc) around this smartphone is perfect.
---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 PM ----------
I resolve the crackling issue.
Just had to turn down the volume settings (they were at max), and the speaker stopped crackling.
I think they used a worse quality speaker on the Droid Turbo than on the Moto X 2014.
Yeah, it's never good to have a speaker at full blast whether a tiny phone speaker or high end monitor.
I know you mentioned that you tested other units but I'd still try another unit. Over on the AC forums there have been people complaining about the speaker and a new unit resolved the issue.
Software won't fix a hardware problem but I do think a lot of our small quirks will be fixed in future updates.
A bit off topic, but when using the speakers during a phone call, the other person can always hear an echo of their voice. This never happened on my Galaxy Nexus. Is this a problem that can be fixed via software or no?
My speaker on my turbo sounds just fine and I'm a bit of a audio freak.
I cant provide a precise answer, but surely is better than the nexus 4 ones.

Speakerphone (loudness, clarity)

Proper etiquette aside (hint: don't use speakerphone while doing your "business" in a public bathroom), rate this thread to express how you think the LG V20's speakerphone performs. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it's loud and it's clear.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
So far for me I find it to be OK. Coming from having Samsung Note phones, I find it to be a big improvement. It could still use work IMHO, but I find it to be much louder and just as clear than any of the past Note series speakers.
I would say that listening to music coming from the speaker, is better than average. Its no Axon 7 or HTC 10 but your average consumer will be satisfied with the volume and clarity imo.
Can you compare it to LG G5 speaker?
I am completely deaf in one ear and partially in the other ( thank you drunk driver head on hit and run ) and I love the speaker quality. I have actually had to turn down the notification volume cause it is to loud for me. So far I really like this phone and I was a Note 1, 2, 3 and 4 user. My favorite part is when it goes to "sleep" and I am going to use it I pick it up and it reads my fingerprint and TADA it is ready. I am very grateful for the second screen. Overall I am extremely pleased with this one.
The loudness and clarity is not a Gimmick, at least for mine . I usually hear music on Pandora and Spotify, and believe me, as someone who hear music daily on spotify and pandora, im experiencing something very different than other devices i have owned.
This is great to hear as I wear hearing aids and the speakers on the Note 7 and S7 Edge sucked for speaker calls....
is it better than a iphone 5s? XD like ^ mention note 7 kinda suck when i was testing music through it

I am on Sprint so it looks like I won't have it till the end of the week but I will certainly check back in and let you know.
I was inside a AT&T store playing with the phone and was listening to Youtube. The store was packed and I could hear the speaker very clearly. It wasnt bad at all for one speaker.
Can anyone compare the speaker quality to V10? (I have V10 and sound from the build in speaker is a nightmare! Simply worse than from the worst cheap crap)

So, I have had the phone for a day now and I will say that the bottom speaker for calls, You Tube, etc for my ears ( I wear BTE hearing aids) is the best I have ever experienced in a phone and totally blows away my experience with previous Samsung notes.
The earpiece speaker is also the best I have experienced for my particular hearing loss, especially when set to the setting that gives clear sounding voices during calls.
This is exactly what I hope for every time I get a new phone and I seem to have finally found it.
For some reason I thought the V20 will come with dolby atmos or some audio enhancement software by B&O Play. I have seen the Korean version with the B&O logo on the back of the V20.
So I am guessing that the US models don't have any added audio enhancements. Correct?
My V10 audio gets a powerful boost when dolby atmos switches on. The volume level will be around 15% and its pretty loud.
On my V20, the volume has to be increase up to 50 -60% for comfortable "loudness".
Let's hope soon there will be some sort of root for the V20, so I can install the dolby atmos zip file.

I can agree with you on that. I have had the note 7 , moto x pure and Bluetooth is unnaturally clearer in my cars sound system. Have not tried it with head phones yet but I can only image the improvement.

When i pair my V20 to the Fm transmitter on the car, it sounds higher than the when i connect other smartphones. Also, for some reason, i can hear things in the song i didn't even know where there. I'm not joking. It is like it amplifies the gain on the background as well making you hear what you are missing from the song. But my bluetooth wont take the hi-fi though. Maybe is because it is not one of the new types of Fm transmitters
Still - is there any former owner of V10? Can anyone compare the speaker quality to V20?

I can tell you from having the V10 to v20 the speaker is lot better, and its way better than than the S7 edge and the Note 7 I had, louder and crisper.:good:

So, I have had the phone for a day now and I will say that the bottom speaker for calls, You Tube, etc for my ears ( I wear BTE hearing aids) is the best I have ever experienced in a phone and totally blows away my experience with previous Samsung notes.
The earpiece speaker is also the best I have experienced for my particular hearing loss, especially when set to the setting that gives clear sounding voices during calls.
This is exactly what I hope for every time I get a new phone and I seem to have finally found it.

:good: Good for you sir.
I posted about this in the V20 Q&A section, but this is the same topic so I thought I'd drop my two cents in here. The speaker on my LG G5 blows my V20's speaker out of the water and it's kind of disappointing because I love everything else about the phone over the G5 (both phones are the T-Mobile variants btw). Watching videos is fine on the V20, but music is a no-go. I could fill the room with surprisingly clear and deep sound with my G5, but the V20's speaker when it comes to music playback sounds like it's being filtered through a dense mesh
