As the title state, I know this question is very weird but i recently noticed that my Z3 top speaker vibrates more and less in the bottom one when playing music.
Anyone have the same problem or is this a normal phenomenon??
It's normal... three unit changed for other questions had the same sound output...
Seems normal. Mine also has same behaviour with speakers

Hello,
the question is in the title : do you have sound quality issues throught hearphones like noise , artefacts...? It seems I have some random buzzing noises like a stuttering but I can't find where it could come from.
Nope, my headphone clarity is great and the speakers are about 50x better than nexus 4

None on my end either and personally I don't think the speakers are THAT bad.
I dont know what's causing this, it's the problem with random defects...
I managed to reproduce the issue : when I make a bug report from develloper option while listening to music.Bluetooth seems unaffected.I made a video of the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XZSef6fuKU
any ideas?
thanks
The speaker is a lot quieter and not as clear as my S2, but it does the job.. Only use it so often.
But, I don't know about you guys.. what's quite annoying is that in apps that force the screen counter clockwise when viewing horizontally my hand covers the speaker and I have to adjust my holding position to hear sound. It seems strange that they didn't place the speaker and mic the opposite way round.. (maybe for calls.. I don't know..)
Also annoyingly, there's such a simple solution, if only somehow all apps could be forced the opposite way then the speakers on the top left and is never covered maybe it could be incorporated into a custom rom?

Hey all,
Is it normal for the top speaker to buzz/crackle when certain sounds are played, particularly those that are somewhat bass heavy?
A good example would be the stock notification sounds, as a lot of them cause this. In particular, the Polaris notification sound makes it rattle like crazy. The Aquila ringtone causes it too. These are just 2 of many examples I could pick out.
Test it yourself, is it normal?

This is my 3rd replacement too...
Edit: I opened up my faulty z3 due to be returned, and it also has the issue with the top speaker crackling.
Seems to be normal then. I assume with the top speaker being responsible for the lows, it just couldnt handle the bass at high volumes.
Same here
I just had my first replacement and the problem persists :crying:
I just got the Xperia Z3 this week and noticed this issue as well. I'm a little disappointed because I expected more from the purportedly improved speakers but I guess I'll live with it for now.
I also noticed that the Z3 gets pretty warm if you play music via walkman with the speaker volume at the max. What also bothers me is that there is speaker noise when using the camera app, even with sound disabled.
yeah, my Z3 has the same issue
Even if you are phoning with load speakers on max volume it crackles.
i have the same pb
my top speaker crackles during some calls at max volume...
I hope this is a software related problem...
any news on this?
Well, I don't really have "crackle" but there's a noticeable "static noise" from top speaker whenever it is active (like when watching a movie/video or even when talking to anyone), especially at high volume setting. More than in any other smartphone that I've ever used. And what's more disappointing is that I am currently using a replacement unit, the original unit had EXACTLY the same issue. I really, REALLY hope that it's a software issue and Sony will be able to improve it with future updates and it's NOT because Sony used low-quality speaker or amplifier components
I have top speaker issue after 2months...the speaker crackling sound get higher.,,and really annoying.,, sometimes not even hearing.
What to do?
My phone got 6month older??
How to solve?
Can I go for replacement?
So this is generic Z3 issue bad move for such a pricey phone...
Count me in too..
My xperia z3 top speaker crackle at the over 80% volume
I noticed this problem on some songs (walkman) or you tube (some videos)
You go to: SETTINGS / SOUND / PHONE RINGTONE / go on the top list, and for example try second song ( AQUILA ) at the maximum volume.
Do you have the same problem on your xperia z3?
I noticed that as well but it seems to only occur on specific sounds for me. I watched a YouTube video at probably 80% volume and heard that crackling. Tried another one even on full volume (both were BF4 gameplay commentaries) and heard nothing but good sound.

I noticed that this problem is present at over 80% volume, too.
I will also check for this.
Just noticed this while listening to music on a youtube video.
Noticed that my top speaker/earpiece will rattle sometimes while on a call, or when playing certain sounds such as ringtones. I wonder if I should exchange or if it's normal (for the z3) seeing as a few people have the same issue.
I replaced mine and I still have rattling during calls, at pretty much any volume. I don't hear it during music though, which makes me wonder if it may be fixed by an update.
Yeah, me also face the problem too.. Very annoying.. Hmmmm
This started to happen to me, I had been using the phone in the pool, three days later I could hardly even hear the top speaker, I ran music through the speakers for one day (taped up the bottom one), hoping it would fix the problem. but It didn't. Now after 6 days it has started to get louder again, so now I can hear callers again and the phone ring. And is now starting to make the sound you all mention here. As you all say very annoying, Sony must have a manufacturing defect on just that speaker.
Does anyone have any idea if this can be fixed with software? If not, the Z3 is going back and I'm getting either the Moto X or the Note 4
happened to me since day 1 as well. Bought in Australia.
In case anyone is wondering, I returned the phone for the Note 4 and the call quality is 10x better... actually the phone is 10x better in pretty much every way including camera. Not that the Xperia was bad at all, but it just didn't feel polished enough... hopefully the Z4 fixes things
Hi,
I could reduce this problem by enabling the "S-Force Front Surround" option in Settings> Sounds> Sound Effects.
I believe that this problem can be solved with a software update that set the correct equalization to remove that rattle from the top speaker.
Regards!
@Djuro89. Try this; fixed it for me

Hi,
This is my current equalizer settings. With this configuration the crackling of the top speaker disappeared. Also deactivated other effect options (ClearAudio+ and Surround).
Regards!
I experience this too, I thought it was water related, I'll give it a try
Hi,
I never put my phone in water.
I believe it is an equalization problem in phone software.
With the equalizer setting that I mentioned in my last post I never had this problem.
Regards!

Hi it annoys me during calls too..
Hello,
i've noticed the same defect on my Z3... It just happens at specified frequencies, i've tried changing equalization's settings and disabling clear audio+ but nothing changes. It looks like a poor speaker quality because if you lower the volume the audio is clear, don't you agree? Thank you.
Hi , i new buy xperia z5 and test speaker. My Z5 left speaker(top) high volume, right speaker low volume. the two are not the same, right is low, top is much louder. İm test in serviece menu and other music.
Second questation;
Physical photo button is not solid, soft and move.
Is this a manufacturing defect? All phones that access ?
Sory, bad english.
Hello
I am not having any of this issues
Probably a manufacture issue
Did you try to test it via the service option test?
For that dial in

There's a lot of play in the Camera button - it's soft (presumably for focus) and rocks a bit (easy to engage when pressing off-center). I imagine this is entirely by design.
Volume rocker is much firmer and even clicks louder.
I have the same "problem" in my Z3. I thought it was normal.
My z5 has no problems with the speaker when playing music, youtube,etc. but the ringtone(when someone calls) is very soft on the left(top) speaker compared to when I test it in sound settings. The right(bottom) speaker seems to be fine(same volume as music,etc.
I don't face this problem, but my right/down speaker have a little bit more treble and less bass than the upper one. But you can hear that only when u hold it by your ears. Not a problem for me, but does anyone have that too? Maybe its because of the build process, in my HTC One M8 there is more bass in the upper speaker too, but the speaker is also a bit larger than the bottom one for some reason..

There's probably limited space on the bottom as there is a usb port right behind the speaker port so the speaker can't be placed in the middle. They will place the speaker at the side and add a tunnel to reach the speaker port. There's also another possibility that the daughter board is limiting the power output of the speaker.
Hello everyone,
