Revision history [back]

The maximum speakerphone volume during a call seems to be much lower than on the Jolla C or the original Jolla phone.

I don't think this is a hardware limitation as sound output (system sound/music playback) can be much louder than the maximum volume in speakerphone mode. So seems like a separate speakerphone/telephony speaker output limitation.

Steps to reproduce

1. call someone
2. enable speakerphone mode (click the speaker icon)
3. set volume to maximum using the volume keys
4. compare maximum volume with Jolla C/Jolla 1

Actual result

Xperia X maximum volume in speakerphone mode is much lower than for Jolla C/Jolla 1.

Expected result

Xperia X maximum volume in speakerphone mode is comparable to Jolla C/Jolla 1.

Additional information

Overall microphone quality seem to be much better than on Jolla C as the other side can hear me just fine even from a distance, compared to Jolla C where I had to be quite close to the device in speakerphone mode otherwise the other side would not hear me very good. But looks like in exchange for that there is some echo heard by the other side on Xperia X - is that possibly the reson for the low maximum volume ? Eq. echo cancellation in speakerphone mode not working properly yet ?
