Known Z5 issues? - Xperia Z5 General

Aside from the left-hand blur issue, is there other known issues out there? For example, I recently tried the speaker on a unit (Z5 Dual E6683 Rev 2 Black / Gold) and the speaker at the top was much louder compared to the bottom one. Is that supposed to be normal?

I don't think they are different volume, i think it just sounds that way because the bottom speaker faces downwards

[Q] sound if only from the right speaker

hi all
i have an issue that i can hear sound only from the right speaker in all the games application and music
i am assuming that this is not a hardware related issue because when i go into the sound setting and play with the volume of the alarm clock i can hear the sound from the left to the right
anyone know a solution ?
i have PRIMORDIAL 3.1
thanks
Hi there,
Give a try to this video (my TF gives seriously lower volume on the left, but speaker is not dead), don't recall if it was already like this before leaked 3.1
Hi
I tested this video and my right speaker is alot loader
So this is a software issue
Is there a way to balance the speakers?
It's not a software issue according to Asus (I've contacted them about this problem, and I need to return my tf in order to fix this problem). I guess the positioning of the left speaker or maybe the hole to the outside is different from the right. Not every tf has this issue, a friend's tf has a little imbalance, not as clear as my tf, so I think it's definately not a sw issue. Maybe it ís fixable by software, but the left speaker will then probably be more stressed than the right one, deminishing its life span.
I'm on my third unit, and they've all had the problem.
I have this problem also and was hoping there would be a software fix. But I read a post on another forum, that mentioned a potential cause and he may be onto something. If I press on the black area of the screen along the left side near the speaker, my balance is much better. it seems like the screen on my left side is not quite set as deep into the bezel as the right side. So I suspect that the software and the speaker is fine, but this issue is due to some assembly issues. With those tiny speaker grill openings, alignment is probably ultra critical. I may RMA this later but figured I would wait a few months until they hopefully work out all of the other manufacturing issues.
hi
after trying this guide

my speakers are now balanced

Unbalanced speaker volume (top too quiet)

I have had a white Z5 Compact for a week and have now noticed that the bottom speaker is much louder than the top, ruining the stereo effect. I am sure it did not come this way out of the box. I didn't notice until after the recent firmware update (32.0.A.6.152), but cannot know whether this is the cause of the problem. I went through the hassle of factory reset and the phone still has the problem. I haven't subjected the phone to any physical trauma at all and will be returning it.
I've had 4 (seeking a good camera) and the 3 that I tested this on were all like this.
Will almost certainly be "fixed" with custom roms in future.
Dont have this problem on 152
I have it the other way around, top speaker was soft first out of the box and after the update it seems to have fixed itself.
Problem seems to have fixed itself...
Weirdly, the speakers seem to be working fine now. Hope it's not a hardware issue.
Just out of curiosity, have you noticed any change with the different audio settings? Are they all off or do you have any of the DSEE HX, ClearAudio+, or Dynamic normalizer on? It may help to decide if it is hardware or software. One of the Audio settings codecs could be screwing with the volume and stereo effect.
I feel that the issue is software related. When I am on a call and switch it to Audio Output the bottom speaker is far louder than the top. I'm unsure if the top is putting out any sound at all really. But if I play a YouTube video or regular song, the stereo effect is playing equally from both top and bottom speakers. Not to mention talking on the phone normally is obviously through the top speaker and it works.
I did'nt have any of the Sony specific audio settings turned on. I ended up asking for an exchange - don't want to take the risk of it being hardware given it's international no warranty. Someone on another forum suggested perhaps I had gotten the phone wet, as that tends to muffle the speakers, but not the case - I have no intention of testing the waterproofness that Sony has backed away from
Update
I have experienced the problem on my exchange phone, but it is intermittent. Example: listening to Google Music after taking a phone call. I suspect it's software related - a sort of "mode" bug, where the phone was in one mode and is passing from another. Similar to how auto-brightness sometimes makes black colors look washed out when waking the phone.
Annoying but I like the phone enough that I'm keeping it. I just feel that if you like a compact phone (under 5" screen) - Sony's the only Android game in town.
I have a white international with the opposite. I watch YouTube with the phone at an angle to make it sound anything like it should..

Same on my Nokia 6. Left speaker is more as supportive one, making the sound depth.
So I think this is normal.
Speakers
Both speakers of device are dead only the speaker at the receiver is working
The bottom (or right as you may say) speaker is the one that makes bass sounds and is primarily the louder one. The top (or left) one is only to produce Stereo effects. It's also a little lesser loud than the bottom one.
In my case, after close to a use of 2 months, my bottom speaker is giving me problems. It's making static sounds, the speaker starts working only after half a second later to the top one. It's like it shuts down itself after every silence amd so needs some time to wake up to work.
Nokia Mobile Care called me and asked me to reset my phone first, and then if the issue stays take it to service centre. I don't think a phone reset will help though.
Nokia 6 TA-1021 India Variant.
No October Update+7.1.2 also.

Dual speakers problem

My phone has a slight issue where on low volumes the earpiece speaker is clearly louder than the bottom one which isn't the case for my "old" 7 pro, and my overall audio level is lower. Have any of you guys had any issue with this? Please let me know otherwise I will probably return it and buy a new one because the speakers are a big deal for me. I also have the screen problem which isn't helping.
fixed
just downloaded a vpn and set my location to finland for the new software version and its fixed... My screen tint is a little better but not 100%, especially by the punch hole where i have a clear horizontal line.

sound from only the right hand side speaker holes, normal?

I'm just wondering if this is normal or not.
Playing anything on the Mi Mix 3 5g via the phone speaker and if the 5 holes on the bottom right of the phone are covered it silences the phone.
Should the left hand side holes be transmitting sound too?
Are only half my speakers working?
Only the right side has the main loudspeaker and the left side is empty as far as I know Your's is working exactly like mine does.
There are a couple of teardown videos showing the guts of the phone though if you want to check them out like this one below for the older mi mix 3 (not 5g variant) .

Thank you. I thought it odd but if all the mi mixes are the same that's fine.
