I'm listening to NPR as I write. Sound fine. Not exactly cranking it up but sound fine to me.

the sound is "pretty good" -- Dolby Atmos is a MUST though -- but the sound from my Google Home Mini is richer and louder.
expected better from quad speakers, esp given Huawei and Apple have managed to squeeze some great sound out of their tablets

I think compared to the iPad pro there a bit naff. No depth or bass

The speakers on the SGTS4 are actually pretty impressive. I didn't expect them to be so loud.

...but the Sound of Tab S5e is much better!

The best sound ever for S4 and I owned a lot of tablet and phones...

I tested at the IFA, which was a pretty loud environment and volume was similar to my Axon 7 despite the V30 having only a mono side speaker. Clarity was good, less distorted than Axon 7 at high volume, but hard to judge because the environment was loud. I will wait for GSMarena#s audio testing.
Pleasantly surprised by the speaker. Gets loud enough but I wouldn't say particularly louder than any phone. Pretty good quality however.
Seriously speaking... this is probably the only "meh" feature of this phone. Glad to hear the simple mono set up is fairly good for what it is though.
I used the G4 H815 since 2015 and comparing, the V30 is not so loud or clear. The G4 gets even louder if over a surface with the screen up. The curve let to the speaker space to "create" some kind of amplifying "sound box".
The 3.5 jack on the top is also a minus for my kind of use and my car setup...

Speaker phone on this is one of the best I've ever experienced. Loud/Punchy and clear!
I noticed a crackling noise when turning the volume up and listen to deep voice in videos or similar freqencies. But the speakers are awesome - very loud, clear and the only thing I miss is the bass, which isn't possible for those tiny speakers.
The stereo works also quiet well but if you look directly on the screen, the ear speaker sounds a bit louder than the bottom speaker, because it sounds directly into your direction.
It is possible, that this problem was already discussed, but I haven't found that thread.
After the second Android 10 update on my hongkong version of Galaxy S10, I found, that sound quality from internal speakers is way worse than before. Too much high frequency, which make sound buzzy and flat. After some experiments, I found out, that devs changed the default "flat" equalizer, although graphically it remains the same. To restore the original sound quality, eq should look like this: 125 hz +1.5, 250 hz +3 (out of 5).
P.S. Atmos and other soft enhancements were not used, because of uselessness.
P.P.S The update came out just before the launch of s20 series, which were considered as worse sounding devices, than s10 series. I don't believe in Samsung anymore.

its fine for calls, but pales in comparison to an iPhone. They really should have gone with a side firing and earpiece loudspeaker for stereo effect.
Great for BT with AptXHD quality coming through my Sony WI1000X in ear BT headphones
This has one of the worst speakers for music I have heard in a long time on a phone. Very loud and good lows for spoken news or voice calls, but when the opening music of a game that I play everyday plays, since I have heard it so many times through other phones, it was definitely noticeable how poorly sounding it was. Stereo would have definitely helped. Since it is so muffled to begin with, when holding vertical with one hand it is often being blocked as well. Pixel 2, iPhone X, and S8 were my others to compare with.

Is it me or one of the last update greatly increased the stereo on the speakers? It was really not good with bad balance at first, then after an udpate the quality was horrible with noise in the top speaker, but a week ago I forgot my headphone, I was surprised how good the stereo was. Almost perfect balance with good clarity and quality.

no I always had a good sound but with the dolby activated Otherwise I had a big difference in volume
I bought the Xperia when it first came out and was disappointed at the quality of the speakers. They sounded really tinny with lack of mids or depth even with atmos on and were not that loud.
In comparison the Samsung note 9 speakers were way better but only since Samsung phones are tuned by AKG which is now owned by Samsung, but like beat audio for apple.

Sounds is more on the tinny side. Too much treble and it sounds distorted at high volumes like something is vibrating. The bass is basically non existent. Clarity is very good especially on phone calls and just for voice chatting but for music or media it's sub par. Honestly I'll be keeping my z3 and using that whenever possible. Because I use my phone a lot for media consumption
Motorola One Zoom loudness isn't that great, I've heard louder phones before. After rooting with Magisk Manager, and also installing Viper4Android FX, my speaker quality increased by +/- 22% and my headset by about the same, I've yet to test connected to Bluetooth speakers.
Also I haven't yet tried Dolby Atmos so will see if that's even louder than Viper4Android ??
