Sony Z3 Compact quiet on loudspeaker

[Anonymous]

Hi guys.

I have recently upgraded my phone to the Z3 Compact.

I really like the phone but noticed it's quiet when on loudspeaker and even when on full volume and someone calls it's still bit quiet, comparing to my old iPhone 5s and our new Note 4 anyway...

Can anyone help please? And I'm sorry if the question was asked before, I did search the forum but couldn't find anything. But as MI5 knows, I can be bit blonde sometimes

Cheers in advance!!

Until the fix is released the best "fix"(not really as they're still quiet) is to set the following in sound settings.
Clear audio - off
Dynamic normalise on
S force front surround on
You get a increase too if your notification is stored on the sd card.

Good advice @viridis .

Adrianna would never have go to those settings by playing with shop demos.

Quite possibly so if a Google search hadn't highlighted those or an in store Guru may have known if a conversation ensued. 😄

Unlikely....

The same "gurus" that has to clarify the note 4 was only waterproof with freshwater?
