Most useless article of the year already.
Gsmarena still thinks, that we gather around a smartphone with our close ones to listen to the latest hits/movies. Apart from calling, which you do not even test, we do not care about it at all.
This is the age of Bluetooth. Yet you do not test which codecs are present on the device and how is the end result.
Jack is gone. So please update your testing finally and get to the relevant stuff. It is the first day of 2025. A good day, to better yourselves.

Why is the ROG Phone 9 not included in the flagships list? With some treble boost in the Audio Wizard, it easily beats others in this list. Listen especially in track 5 and 7, the ROG Phones are basically the only ones to actually produce the bass notes. I tuned mine to have a basically flat response from 180Hz to 12kHz at 75% volume.
Also, I personally really like the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra. It's loud, clear, and warm without any distortion whatsoever. The Xperia 1 VI is extremely loud and full-bodied, but suffers from compression artifacts. In my opinion, the S24 Ultra is too thin sounding - it has too much treble.

The article writer needs to explain better the methodology of the tests in the introduction of the article.

I'm looking for a phone has its focus on its speakers. Best experience for watching Music video clips, no need for headphones, and also best experience for listening Music on room space, the best replacement can be achieved for a portable speaker.

Microphone quality and performance in high SPL situations is important to me, is there anything GSMarena can say about the best microphones in smartphones?
