What affects sound quality in mobile phones?
Our smartphones are entrusted with producing sound for a variety of activities, including music, movies, and gaming. These “jack of all trades” devices don’t necessarily have acoustic expertise though.
There are a few things you can do to enhance the sound quality your phone is capable of producing. So here’s how to make sure your smartphone has the best audio quality.
The sound that your chosen music app is producing might not be as good as it could be. Many services will automatically switch to a lower quality level to accommodate data cap restrictions and patchy mobile connectivity.
However, if neither of those things bothers you, you may easily improve the audio quality by turning up the quality in the app’s options section.

Turn the quality up to “Very high” in the Spotify app’s Settings > Music Quality section to increase the quality to the equivalent of 320 kbit/s.
Users of Apple Music on their iPhones should navigate to Settings > Music > Mobile Data and check that the High-Quality Streaming toggle is turned on. Users with Android devices must open the app, navigate to Settings > Cellular Data, and turn on the “High Quality on Cellular” toggle.
Users of Google Music should open the Settings menu in the app, scroll down to “Quality on mobile network” or “Mobile network stream quality,” choose “Always High,” and then exit.
If you anticipate having trouble with reception, download the songs you want to listen to in advance to ensure the best possible sound (as long as you have the storage on your phone).
Many third-party protective covers don’t quite fit phones as tightly or effectively as they should; some even cover some of the external speakers, which deadens the sound.
Give it a go. Turn up the volume, start music on your phone’s speakers, and then take the case off. Is the sound noticeably clearer? If so, you’ll need a new case, ideally one that completely exposes the speaker.
Such cases can also interfere with your personal audio setup if you haven’t gone wireless because they partially obstruct the space surrounding the headphone port.
Even the top smartphone makers will look for ways to minimize costs, and one of the simplest is by including subpar audio equipment (see also fast chargers).
Therefore, swapping out those subpar earphones is one of the easiest ways to enhance the sound of your smartphone. You won’t have to spend a lot to hear better, whether it’s a simple replacement set of in-ear buds or something a little more substantial.
Even if you have a very fine pair of vintage wired headphones, the sound quality on your phone is likely dismal. A portable DAC is required (Digital-to-Analogue Converter).
All of the chips in your phone’s sound system are compromise exercises. The necessity to output a range of sound kinds and factors like mobility and energy efficiency invariably result in a trade-off in sound quality and strength.
External DACs exist in a range of forms and sizes, but they all function to boost your phone’s sound output to levels closer to what the music’s original producers intended. If you have a high-quality pair of headphones, for instance, the difference can be truly amazing.
Of course, carrying around a brand-new phone-sized (and frequently phone-priced) device is a very extreme answer. But you may also customize the output of your phone to your preferences.
Although not all mobile devices or music apps include equalizer features, you can download a specialized EQ app to do the task for you.
You may adjust the sound output on your device to produce a warmer, Bassler, or airier sound with apps like EQu and Equalizer+ for the iPhone and Music Volume EQ and Equalizer for Android.
Users of Apple Music on iPhones should be aware that the app has an EQ feature. Just go to Settings > Music > EQ and make any necessary adjustments until you have a sound profile that you enjoy.
