Though, sure its OS sucks so much, I wish I can flash it to custom rom.

Niku, 01 Jan 2025Fun fact: Asus ROG Phone 7 family still is the undisputed k... moreseriously, it's like the Rog 7 put too much pressure on phonemakers to finally improve their speakers, so they found a way to pressure ASUS instead. still no idea what the ROG phone "gained" by abandoning it's signature dual front-firing speakers.
technologically, Brane X showed the entire electronics industry that certain physical properties of speaker design considered fundamental for decades are, in fact, fungible. MEMS/solid state drivers also allow new architecture and capabilities.
the writer who chastised gsmarena for bothering to test phone speakers at all clearly does not speak for the literally BILLIONS of people who use their phone's speakers every day. Who wouldn't want them to sound as good as possible?
Industry simps and apologists, that's who.

Make an article on the loudest smartphones and tablets of 2024. All the 3 should be in separate lists.

The best sounding phones for me are Xiaomi. Especially if they are sold with stereo speakers. The ones with mono speakers are only good for people with 1 ear.

It is very difficult to enjoy good sound without a headset. Perhaps it is so difficult that it makes no sense in reviewing any of the phones here.

I've owned the S24 Ultra for 6 months and from day one I noticed the sound quality was subpar compared to my previous Samsung M51, which was a mid ranger with great battery.
I'm using sound booster apps to get around the issue, but disappointed that a flagship that cost me top dollars would have average sound quality, not loudness, but overall bass and balance. iPhones have great sound quality and I've owned older Androids with better sound.

Just one question.
Since when a 16 plus Iphone is a flagship.
Apart the CPU it have low end midranger specs or high end entry level specs. ňCalling a phone with slow US port useless slow charging speeds, 60 HZ display and many else cons a flagship is like negotiate horse its not horse but a camel.
Even Kia sells far more cars compared to Rolls Royce but that does not make a better car from Kia Motors.
