Hi Guys,
I know that this phone has a dedicated audio DAC. How is the headphone quality on this phone ? Does it get loud enough? This is very important to make before making a purchase decision.
Thanks
Sound quality is really bad and the loudspeaker does not provide enough volume .

Hi!
Audio quality is a considerably important factor to me when I purchase a phone. I have a pair of Westone 4 IEMs (high-end), so my question is simple.
How good is the sound quality on the HTC One S?
I used to have a Samsung Galaxy S i9000 and the audio quality with voodoo sound fix applied was reasonably good imho, does the HTC One S compare?
Please do not comment on d sound quality with the headphones that are included with the phone or other cheap headphones, that includes Beats Solos.
Depends on what sound you want to know about.
The external sound is great. It achieves a decently high volume with minimum to no distortion. Beat audio does NOT effect the external sound, meaning it has no effect and does not turn on. Although the speaker is on the back, it does not get muffled if the phone is face up. For me, this speaker was an EXTREME upgrade from my Nexus One. I was surpirsed how well it sounds and how loud it can go.
[*]The in-call sound is real good as well. Not too much to say here, its real easy to hear the other person and it has been the most life-like sound I have experienced in regards to in-call sound.
The headphones have real good quality (ones I bought, this device does not come with a cheap pair by default). I think that Beats does good when it comes to enhancing the sound of music. Some think it is extremely amazing, I think it helps out greatly, but does not give completely unbelievable sound that you never heard before. It basically boosts bass and treble slightly giving a bit of a crisper sound over stock. I still use PowerAmp (media player) which has its own separate EQ system. It sounds amazing when combined with Beats.
Conclusion, Beats + good headphones = amazing sound quality, Beats + good headphones + additional DSP EQ setting (such as PowerAmp) = Best quality you will ever hear. I am an audiophile and I have to have my music sound perfect for all genres, rap to rock.
I know the sound through headphones is supposed to be top notch.
How is the sound quality of the loudspeaker though? (my references are the tp2 and n8 on the good side and hd2 on the bad with mt4gs in the middle)
How is the audio recording quality? On my mt4gs it's mediocre at best and gets distorted easily so I would really like an improvement.
Thanks
I've been wondering how people's experience of the N5 audio aspect is, speaker wise and headphone wise. Would love to know feedback on this as to site chances in which I could enhance their audio aspects.
If anyone could answer the following queries I have I would gladly appreciate it.
- DSP tunneling (In regards to the 60 hr playback)
- Speakers are Stereo like the N7 2013 or Mono
- Audio codec being used (Preferably in the audio conf file under /system/etc/media_profiles.xml and mixer_paths.xml)
- List all the libs named audio in system/lib/hw
Thanks a million guys
Im pretty sure the audio is mono.

Yup the device output is mono and it's not very good either. The speaker falls weak of everything apart from Bass. It just feels to be lacking. I have used a G2 and the speaker is much louder and clearer, but the speaker on the G2 is only mono too which leads me to wonder whether the Nexus uses the exact same speaker as the G2 but the software on the Nexus limits it's output.
To me audio is quite a big thing, as ridiculous as it sounds I do sometimes play music out of my phone, and I also use YouTube out loud. I have noticed with the Nexus 5 is is sometimes hard to hear notification sounds, especially in the morning when I am on the bus for example. I know it's not just my device there are numerous reports about this around the web and do not confuse this issue with the tinny audio bug, this simply is the speaker quality.
In terms of headphone output, no complaints.

Sorry for the late reply but thanks for your input in this. Very helpful! I'll see what I can do. The idea being the dsp tunneling is what disturbs me the most. I'm tempted to order one to see about it.

Replace your unit with a European or American model.
It's clear that Indian phones are mostly defective.
To boost UP volume i suggest using gustom kernel, for adjusting bass, clarity, eq, just i staĆ viper4android in magisk manager
I do have some questions about the Huawei P30. How is sound recording for concerts and loud music? Do you have samples? And is the audio quality from the 3.5mm jack good? Does it get near the quad DAC LG quality?
