This article will show you how to improve Smartphone sound quality. Our phones have to make sound for a lot of different things, like music, movies, games, and more. But these gadgets that can do a lot of different things aren’t always good at audio. Most Phone models can get pretty loud. It might not be loud enough to listen to music on a crowded tube, but it’s loud enough for most everyday settings.
It’s no secret that mics on board are not very good. Some of them are better than others, but in general, they can’t make good sound. Even though technology has changed a lot in the last few years, the sound quality still needs to get better. The speakers on modern phones are already very good. They are one of the best ways to watch videos and talk on the phone. But nothing is perfect, and you can still make the sound on your iPhone and android better.
How to improve Android phone sound quality
Clean the Speakers Carefully
Cleaning your phone’s speakers is another way to keep the sound from getting worse. Using compressed air to blow the dust out of the grills is the best way to do it. As a cheaper option, you could use an old toothbrush to scoop out any small pieces that may have gotten stuck in the holes. The speakers should be cleaned on a regular basis to keep them in perfect shape.
Optimize and Equalize with Wavelet
There are a lot of apps that claim to give you fine-grained control over your phone’s sound, and some music player apps have built-in equalizers, but Wavelet is great because it applies equalization, effects, and gain control to your whole device.
To keep things easy, you can just use one of the app’s many pre-sets. AutoEQ, for example, makes the sound on your phone match the Harman standard (and you can even see it!). Under Gain Control, We like to use the Limiter, which keeps jumps in the audio track from being too loud. You can also play with effects like echo and bass tuning.
Wavelet should work automatically with apps like Spotify, YouTube Music, and Google Play Music. If you want it to work with regular YouTube, PowerAmp, and other apps, you may need to turn on Legacy Mode. This is a great background choice, and we should probably add that you’ll get a lot more out of it if you use headphones or separate speakers instead of the speakers on your phone.
Explore Your Phone’s Sound Settings More In-Depth
Depending on the phone you have, the company that made it might have built in some extra ways to control the sound. On the Samsung Galaxy, for example, there were some more complicated sound settings. Users can find these by going to “Settings -> Sound & Vibration -> Advanced -> Sound Quality and Effects.” You’ll find an Equaliser feature here with several presets and the chance to make your own. Some phones also have a feature called Dolby Atmos that can be turned on and off.
How to improve iPhone sound quality
Check the speaker
There might be dust or gunk in the speaker of your iPhone, which could be easily cleaned. Read: What is safe to use to clean an iPhone. If you want to know more information about this Visit Official Apple Support site.
Remove the film
If it’s a brand-new iPhone, make sure you’ve taken off the plastic wrap. If it’s blocking air from getting to the microphone or speakers, they won’t work. You’d be shocked at how many people make this mistake, no doubt because they want to keep their new iPhone clean.
Check your headphones
Another reason you might not be able to hear your call is if you are using headphones that aren’t put in properly or aren’t working via Bluetooth. Go to Settings > Bluetooth and either turn it on or turn it off and on again to see if you are linked.
Use Noise Cancellation
If you have an iPhone 14 or older, there is a useful feature that makes calls sound better. Phone Noise Cancellation cuts down on background noise when you hold the phone speaker to your ear during a call. This can make your call sound better, but it could also have the opposite effect. Before iPhone 14, this function was turned on by default, but you could turn it off in the Accessibility settings.
- Go to: Settings > Accessibility.
- Tap on Audio/Visual.
- Switch Phone Noise Cancellation on or off.
You might wonder why you would want to turn on or off the feature. Noise cancellation is helpful for talks with people in noisy places, but some people might find it confusing because it can make their ears feel full. Most likely, this is why there is a way to turn it off.
FAQs
If the sound quality on your device is bad in some places, it could be because the connection is weak. Check to see if your mobile network provider has consistent service in your area. Call clarity could be affected by a broken SIM card. Check your SIM card to see if it’s broken and make sure it’s in correctly.
One way to make something easier to understand is to get rid of useless noise. In production, you can cut down on noise by recording in a soundproof room or by getting rid of things that make noise, like fans, AC units, cats, etc. (In post-production, you can get rid of noise by using noise reduction steps in audiovisual editing software.
