I've noticed that listening to any music or certain audio frequencies at 75% or higher external speaker volume become very distorted, like it's pushing the speaker past it's limits. I've tested this with another friend's S6 and his is the same way. Easiest way to tell is raising the ringer volume and hearing a distinct high pitch with the volume adjust sound. Dunno how else to describe it.
Disregard this post. Because of the junk speaker, horrible LTE and wifi reception, and terrible battery life this phone went back.

has anyone else noticed that the in-call volume is really loud, even at the lowest level? I have mine turned all the way down, but i can almost hear the speaker buzz because the volume is so boomy.
If anyone else has this issue, does anyone have a fix?
I admit that the sound volume is a b it high at times... but then again the HOS has really great audio for the size of the speakers...
It is loud on ocassion, like speaker phone is on
I find the speaker audio tinny/hollow--but acceptable
However, should be better for a cutting edge 600.00 phone with highly advertised beats audio and media monster--
I noticed that when I'm sitting in a completely quiet room, when I play a video and set the volume to 1 bar, the sound is so bad you can hear literally only buzzing and other wierd noises. It's absolutely fine at higher volume levels, I guess the noises just don't get louder. And I'm wondering, because I have this phone for like four months, and I'm not sure if this got worse than it was at the beginning. May it be due to cleaning the dust with compressed air? Should I remove the cover and check if everything is ok?
Also, it can be heard better if you're holding the phone right by your ear, please check if it's the same for you.
It's really noticeable when listening to people talking, hard to notice when listeting to music.
Hey there,
so I am having this strange issue with my GS6 speaker. I can hear random high frequency noise from time to time.
Also I can clearly hear when the speaker is active and when it's not. It emits this silent noise all the time.
Sorry I have no good microphone to record this noise. But I tried to record the high frequency noise: you might need to turn your volume all the way up to hear it: https://youtu.be/f2CiTVqfdXs (you can hear it only when I put the speaker near the microphone of the phone I was filming with)
I am not sure what to do. Is this a good reason to bring the phone to the retailer for the change?
Does anyone here can reproduce the same issue?
Volume through the speaker and ear piece are extremely low compared to the stock phone. Unable to make calls with ear piece as I cant even hear the other person. and speaker volume while playing media is extremely low and quality is very poor. Sound Quality used to be the best feature of this phone, now only sound through earphones is Good. anyone else experiencing this ?
Even I have observed the same since the first update. I am thinking to downgrade and going back to stock.
Which version is good?
just out of curiosity, is the sabre dac enabled in this??
Howdy...
For quite some time i had the feeling Music doesn't sound quite right on max volume.
So today i made the Test and it seems as if my top speaker is broken.
I've recorded the whole test so you can hear it too (put the volume to the max...) and you know how i've tested to see if i'm the only one or if this might even be a common mistake on the XZ2.

Reproducing: Use any Frequency test Video or app or whatever. Set the Volume at Max.
You can hear the top speaker crickling/flattering between 250 and 1100hz. Everything above that is clear.
If you reduce the Volume below 50% it's also clear.
Anyone has a Similar issue or am i alone with a broken speaker?
As a musician, I can tell you that driving a pure sine wave through any speaker for any length of time will damage and distort it
That being said, alot of speakers don't handle any sound at full volume very well...even crystal speakers / drivers on phones, you do get signal/music drop out, distortion as certain instruments and signals vie for superiority within the sound space..
If the music is fine at about 95% of full... Then that's normal... if it like that at 85% or lower, could be a faulty unit..
These are very small crystal drivers... and will, if constantly ramped up full will become distorted over time, due to the sheer stress on them of constantly being vibrated all day long very fast.. this is why, on phones it's best to take the volume to about 90% max... because theyll sound rubbish above that...
If it's bothering you though friend, I would, just warranty or return it if you can
Hope that helps ?
