Dunno if its me, but im having the feeling that the output power of my brand new f8331 is not doing so good, in comparison with my old Z2, this last has a far better volume and sound quality over ext stereo speakers.
My XZ sounds extremely quiet and bodyless IMO.
Hope this is just a software update matter but its worrying me so bad.
Same here... Let's hope it's a software update like the z3
I installed the RomAur 1.1 and the upper speaker is a lot louder as I can tell. Maybe ROM-related or the speakers are bad. The lower speaker is a joke.
Bruh this phone is a joke. My iPhone 6s is louder. The top speaker is louder than the other speaker. How in God's name are two speakers so ****ty. My m7 and m8 have better speakers. Sometimes I don't even hear ringtones.

The above title did not appear in the search section so I am starting this thread.
Do you use music much on this phone? Do you like it?
I notice it has xLoud, Clear Phase, Clear Bass, Clear Stereo, Surround Sound and Clear Audio. I understand that sometimes these things can be gimmicks / marketing junk but sometimes they can be useful. This is a good feature set for music lovers.
I notice that on GSM Arena tests that they rate the audio quality highly. I follow their guides often but not always. Audio quality is also subjective and occasionally I disagree with their conclusions. (e.g. X10 Mini). They rate the audio quality here if you wish to view it: http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_l-review-934p7.php
Obviously the sound quality is fantastic. It is one of the best on a phone I have ever heard.
It doesn't beat my friends Stereo Beats Audio Speakers in HTC One but I'm satisfied with it them. I can agree with above that it is the best on a phone I have ever heared.
That is really impressive. Maybe the audio is underrated on this phone. And hello fellow Paddy!
Sound quality is quite good with both speaker an earphones thanks to settings included by Sony. The sound is incredibly loud with integrated speaker and does not show any sign of weakness. The sound is so loud that I don't need XLoud.
But the speaker is quite focused on high tones. That's the only "bad" thing.
I enabled xLOUD and I find my speaker too loud even on lowest setting when using Vine i. e.
But sound quality in Walkman and Poweramp I just superb. Even with my uber crappy earbuds

For a lower range device Xperia l really got impressive speakers

I am not satisfied. My old w880i was far fuller than this. The earpiece is so lousy. The bonus headphone that came with the phone wasn't helpful either. A 10 year old megabass earpiece sounded so much better. Eventually, I just had to ditch it in favor of the much better xperia C.

I'm only talking about the audio quality. There are other reasons why I dumped the L (lousy cam as well). But I can say with certainty that the audio on the C is better. Perhaps it's in the headsets. I wouldn't have dumped the L if I weren't happy with it. Because it's a sony, the walkman app is a big draw for me, so if i'm not happy with it, i'm most likely going to either try another model, or buy another brand altogether. But i'm now VERY happy with the C, despite having less features and not having a loud xloud speaker.
audio quality on L
Another possible reason why sony bundled a better sounding earpiece is that the C is capable of playing .flac files. Haven't tried whether the L could or couldn't since i've dumped it already... It's not in the official specs of the L, so i'll assume it can't...
phone history: motorola microtac - dead and gone. ericsson ga628 dead. ericsson g688 died of old age. ericsson r520 still working but no back light. ericsson t68i - stolen ericsson t630 dead. sonyericsson s600 dead. sonyericsson k750i irrepairable flex. sonyericsson w800 flex problem. walkman 880i stolen . Nokia n8 - still working
Just bought Xperia L
Walkman app is very good.
Audio quality is very good too, i have a previous S3 and Nexus S which is on wolfson, with voodoo sound(used the bundled S3 headpiece on both), coming from it i know the difference, I though the Xperia L has bad audio quality, but its on the bundled sony headset, even the free Headphone not so good, but when i plugged in my samsung S3 headset, it was good, didn't know the difference from my wolfson powered S3 and Nexus S.
For a midrange phone, 2mp on front should be the norm, my LG optimus black has it. Slow autofocus too. so avoid the phone shake while waiting for the slow autofocus, the dedicated camera button is tough to press, shaking the phone while pressing it.
Cons: slow autofocus, front camera, bad bundled headset.
Pros: everything not on cons for its price, i like the audio, battery, net integration, gps, screen size, form factor and design.
Has someone tested the audio quality of the Mi 4C?
I mean the earphones one during call and with music.
I would like to know if it is comparable with Htc One M8...
Thanks!
not tested the earphones, but the built-in speakers are very loud!!
Thank you kelkelkel, could you please tell me when you'll try the headphones?

Stereo or mono speaker?
Speaker or Headphones?
The mi4c has superb sound. My headphones (beyerdynamic tp51p) really become alive. You'll not be dissapointed.
Finally I've tested the phone and the audio is low and poor, in my opinion.
I've tried three pairs of earphones. I think it is worse than my old Moto G 2013.
Anyway installing Cyanogenmod the volume is good and the sound is more crystalline.
So the problem is the Miui software...
We are still very far from the quality of HTC or even iphone.
Equalizer, earphones enhancing are honestly not very useful. In Cyanogenmod instead the equalizer runs well.
Anyway the price of the phone is very good but I can not recommend the purchase to audiophiles users or those who want a particular quality of listening .

Stock? I've haven't found any earphones in the box.
Did you try to ear from Htc, S6 or iPhone? It is very different, I repeat, this is my opinion!
Didn't you noticed that the max volume is low yet?
I tend to agree with @HarryCustom, max sound quality is so so under miui even with the enhancements. No contest compared to my M8, both speakers or headphone. Waiting for sound mods when available since I have rooted it already.

I've installed that rom, but I think the mod is not working, the audio is low yet.
It was a problem anyway because I've decided to use Cyanogenmod, in my opinion is more stable than Miui...

Is that miui build more stable than the default Chinese one?
I am Italian, so I've received the phone with a modded stable rom with plenty of bloatware.
So I've flashed the Miui.eu rom and cooked Smiui.
I think all the roms are immature, but this a common problem when you buy a new android phone.
I've tested both Miui and Cyanogenmod for a week. In my opinion there are not so much difference in stability.
But maybe I excedeed saying that the other one is more stable, to tell the truth te only sure thing is that I think Cyano fits better for me.
I am sure only about one thing the sound is different and better with Cyanogenmod...
Are there any apps in the play store that can change the sound quality? Sounds like it has a lot of bass
Hi you can try Eizo Noozxoide, in my opinion is the best audio adjustment app.
Anyway if the audio is poor, is poor...

Here are some actual values for the Mi4C (Running the Chinese version of MIUI) and iPhone 6s, and as you can see they perform practically the same, but the iPhone is louder (not shown here) and the stereo crosstalk with Headphones attached is more than a bit disappointing. How is the sound better with CyanogenMod? In what way? Can you hear more distortion or worse dynamic range in compared to other phones? I'm waiting for my Mi4C to arrive, and I'm somewhat the audiophile (though that's not why I bought this phone, it just has the least amount of compromises for the price).

Hi xdadevet and sorry for my terrible English, I am not an audiophile, not at all. I tried both on Miui.eu, the last rom available, and Smiu with volume boost patch (that seems to be not useful) and I noticed more distortion and worse dynamic range than on CM12.1 Alpha.
Maybe my phone has some issues, but this is what I've noticed. It's not very difficult to understand that, I can't need to be an audiophile to say it: for expample on both miui I can keep the headphones in my ears even with the maximum volume and, the sound is distorted , unclean and weak. On CM the sound is crystal clear , the equalizer works well and the phone sounds a little better than my old Moto G (always on CyanogenMod), at maximum volume I'm forced to take off the headphones. I was hoping that the Mi 4C sounded better anyway!
Using the sound enhancement by Xioami (all the profiles are for Xiaomi earphone, any other earbud has to use the general one ) ths situation is the same, you can ear a bit better, but volume and distortion are the same. I've tried a pair of Blox, Edifier H110 and Baldoor E100.
Maybe with another type of headphones you can change the situation, but I think there are some problems in Miui management of audio, as the sound quality has to be the same on CyanogenMod.
To conclude, we are very far from HTC , just yesterday I made a comparison between listening Mi4c with CM and an One M7 , I'm sorry , there is no comparison...
The rear speaker instead is good, better than other phones even if the phone is resting on a table.
I hope new roms could solve this issue and also the touch one.
Is there a way to make the front facing speakers louder? I was expecting those speakers to blow away the iPhone 4S and the iPhone 6S (I briefly owned), because they only have one bottom speaker, but as far as I can tell the front facing stereo speakers on the Z5 are maybe only a bit louder, if not about as loud as the 6S (which was minutely louder than the 4S).
Only with root and upping the volume but that also would be down to you on how high you try it in case of speaker damage

I think you want an HTC if you want super great (phone) speakers.
Ah, ok. Thanks guys. Don't know how to root, and have no desire to trade in for anything else at this point.
Get yourself a Bluetooth speaker. Lol

I only use Sony Bluetooth sbh20 earphones but they sound great, actually really loud compared to my old m2 on earphones and through the speaker, sound quality is also much better than it was on stock Sony music on my. Have you tried different earphones which ones are you using the ones that come with it aren't that great anyway, I'd avoid anything not branded that are really cheap as the sound reproduction would be awful anyway.

Got to try out my mdrv 700. Never tested good headphones or receiver on that phone.
Hello,
I am just wondering if there was already any tests for the stereo speakers.
I hope the speakers being used are not the same from X compact as these are getting very negative opinions over Internet as being silent and not producing good quality + providing vibrations
Xperia XZ and iPhone 7 Speaker Test vs Galaxy S7 Edge and HTC 10
mine are more quiet than my 6p but probably due to the water resistant speakers
I played the same youtube video at the same time on the XZ and my Z2 and honestly couldn't tell much difference with the overall volume.
I will say though that a song that sounded particularly odd on my Z2 (Denounced, Disgraced by The Black Dahlia Murder) now sounds decent on the XZ as the stereo balance is actually equal!
Makes sense.
I've had the z1c, z3c, z5c and x performance.
Over say several months you'll notice the speakers get quieter over time.
Hence my XZ similarly sounds crisper but not necessarily louder then my XP and z5c.
I find the speakers not to be quite as loud as on my Z5. Still I find them decent enough.
