Xperia Z3 bottom speaker sounds low

ebil — Sat, 09 May 2015 08:35:02 GMT

Hello I've noticed that top speaker is sounds more high level than bottom speaker

I've asked to my local Sony Center about this and he said me its should sound same level

What is the right information about that?

Thank you

Try just restarting your device. If that wont do ananything then do a software repair with the pc companion program on your computer

You can also do this

Settings > sound and notification > audio settings > clear audio+ and tick this Setting. If its checked already and the sound is still lower on the bottom speaker, like i said do a software repair or contact your local sony team.

From what I heard, when you try to play media files from speakers the top one will be louder than the buttom. Check this:

I have sony xperia z3 dual. After 5.0 lollipop update my phone's speaker is not workong properly. The sound is too low now.While listening to music, I can only listen to it when I tune it to the highest volume. It is hardly hearable at half volume level. Yesterday i got update to 5.1.1 and now USSD code is not working in it so, I can't check my balance, databalance and other services. This is only one day experience after 5.1 update. I don't know how many problems will arise in this new update.

Fellow Z3 user here. Same issues with low volume output.

I'm on my 4Th Z3. No noticeable fix found. Anyone had any luck getting this resolved? I've sent my last phone in for warranty repair and it was ok when it came back, but two weeks later sound volume just dropped off again.

I was hoping to squeeze another year out of this thing but it looks like is should sell this piece of junk asap.

Good luck with that Z5 and staying in the smartphone business Sony.
