Not for me, I get pretty clear audio here with no shake or vibration.
so you can't like feel the sound through your device?

I feel a very very small amount of vibration with the speaker at max volume but no rattle whatsoever, if your concerned about a bad speaker the best way to know is to really focus on the sound, no matter the size of the speaker it has a cone with a magnet, tweeters typically go bad and sound like a piece of paper slapping something. Due to the size of this speaker it may be hard to notice this imperfection but if your speaker has really bad quality then most likely it's no good.
If I have a bad speaker will it sound bad on all volumes?

Most likely, yeah it will, It may even give more clarity of a defect on lower volumes, I don't think it would be easy to find a speaker for the e4gt online so if your phones still under warranty, I would take it to a sprint service center and they will most likely repair it they're for you.
Just got it last week.

I know how you feel man, I had my first E4GT for a month then the screen went out as I was going to Vegas Nevada for a vacation and was relying on my phone as a camera

I have had my HOX for about a week now and It seems that I am lucky since my phone is defect free in comparison to what other people are saying.
The only thing I noticed is the rattling noise when I shake the phone. Has anyone confirmed the source of the rattling?

I hear a small little rattle when i type on the screen and haptic feedback is enabled. Its a really small sound. If that is what you are talking I have the same thing.
just dont shake it

i had that rattling noise as well in my previous two white HOX. Some say it could be due to the autofocus of the camera some say it is the sim tray card. If i was you send it back mate and try and get a new one if you can. Not a big issue but if you are a very picky person like me then swap it till you get a perfect one. I send two not just because of the noise but due to other factors and now i got my grey one i could not be any happier
I thought it was the camera optics moving, I removed the sim and it still rattled, it`s not a problem, how often do you shake it, it`s a phone not a pair of maracas
John.
Thank you guys for the responses!!!
i have a problem, can you make a test for me??
when i put headphones, and i press volume + for example, i hear a noise for 3 seconds, and it stops..it's really a problem!!
'cause now when i listen music , between 2 tracks i hear this noise
It is the phone's optics.
don't exchange if ur phone is perfect otherwise u might end up with one if the troubled one x, rattle is on most them anyway
no noise troubles on my sony xperia.. perfect sound
I ordered another one x and pretty much returned it after I opened the box because the rattling is on the new one also plus it had a scratch between the LCD and the Gorilla glass.
I am keeping my original HOX since it is defect free except the rattling noise.
My only concern is having a problem with the phone down the road due to moving parts, any wisdom?
Thanks.

I think it is the vibrate motor, my latest one x did a sharp hard click when the vibrate was going off, not long after initial setup.
This cause the vibrate feedback to become really weak, so long story short, it's going back on tues... How is the intensity of your vibrate feedback, especially when pressing the capacitive buttons?

just realized mine rattles...this is my 3rd HOX due to picky screen issues and everything else is fine...so I won't let this bother me and if something breaks...well thats what warranties are for.
It is very slight and doesn't seem to affect anything else....oh well- can't have perfection and this is one imperfection, among a myriad of others that I will deal with.

I think this might be something different (though I could be wrong). If you get strange clicking or popping sounds when starting or stopping music or changing volume etc, it could be down to some EQ or sound boosting app that you've installed.
I previously used an app called Volume+ (sound booster) on my HTC Sensation to help with the weak volume that it had. It worked great with the Sensation, but it causes no end of issues for me with the One X. It's just a though...
Bugsy.

Practically every HTC phone I've owned rattled to some degree when shaken. I wouldn't worry about it as long as that's the only time you hear it.
I can say, however, that over the course of a few days - the haptic feedback motor on my phone has changed from making a nice gentle humming sound to a slightly irritating click/slapping sound.

are you facing this problem only while you play music or also video? maybe you got a corrupted .mp3 file but i don't think it is caused by that
It's normal, one x has quiet speaker, when i listen to, say, hard electro, or anything else that has stronger kick bass, everything else gets distorted when kick hits, but for low bass stuff the speaker is good.

I had the same problem to the point I couldn't hear it ringing, so I got a soft toothbrush dampened it slightly and brushed the speaker it drastically improved the sound, I have to do it frequently

I don't know what kind of speaker that HTC have put in hox but it definitely sound cheap..
Hi.
do you hear a little sound when you give little taps on the back near the mic jack?
down I have no sound but when I tap on top, I hear something like something was not fixed.
what could be it?

Hehehe, you and I seem to have done the same thing when we bought it. If I had to take a wild guess at what that is, I would say it is a loose fit of the volume rocker, or the power button. The thing is rock solid though, I had the 2012 and that thing creaked and flexed all over the place. I'll take a rattle from knocking on the back.
I think my volume rocker does the same thing just a small rattle and you dont really notice it unless your looking out for it
Yes u are right.
come from volume rocker.
seem holes have too much play.
Im pretty sure its the camera autofocus mechanism you are hearing. Same on all devices with autofocusing cameras.

That's exactly right.
ja.
tried with my phone.
same type of sound.
I bought the phone recently and I love it. But I have 1 very huge issue.
I can't undstand what people are saying sometimes. Quality on the S4 were crystal CLEAR, whether I have it in speaker mode or in normal mode, sometimes I can't make out what people are saying. It's like this phone has some really bad speaker quality.

Mine is as good on any other phone that I have had. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised with downward shooting sound compared to back firing. Perhaps you have a defective device.....mine is fine.
No issues here.

Maybe it was just me, phone is huge, positioning of the ear to speaker might of been it. Sound quality isn't super great but not as bad as I originally thought. Thanks for the reply. I don't think it's a defect, hope not lol bought this phone cash! 550
I noticed that the sound quality of the built-in speakers is... terrible... to be putting it mildly. Initially I thought there was just a lot of bass but during calls the sound is very "sharp" but not in a good way, more like hurting my ears piercing. When I'm playing videos or music, not only is the top speaker at most half of the lower speaker's volume, but the overall experience is like the phone was dropped into a tin can. I already tried Wavelet to balance the speakers but the sound quality still is abysmal. My 3.5 year-old S9+ outperforms the 6Pro by far. The little things that bother me with this phone keep adding up and I'm not sure how many more I can take. At least the call quality should be OK, right?
.... Hopefully it ain't anything wrong with your device but I definitely don't have such an issue. I think the sound is great. Honestly I'm kind of impressed at how well the top speaker sounds yet I can barely even see the speaker based on how seamless the screen goes into the frame at the top.
Is it the best sound of any smart phone... No I'm sure it's not. Is it better than my pixel 4XL which had great sound to me, Yes. They are actually the same loudness yet the 6 pro sound is clearer at full volume. I understand that sound is subjective however I would have to 1000% disagree with you.

So there might be something wrong with the device? The sound is basically like a 48 kbit MP3 file
EDIT: Maybe I'll head over to Best Buy this weekend to talk to the folks there and get a replacement if necessary.

I have no complaints about the sound from mine. Nothing like you've described. I do hope that you get it worked out.
In developer settings you can change the stereo balance if you need to.

Thank you! I'll let y'all know
ironically a semi audiophile on reddit did a full on rant today how the audio had too much bass
meanwhile reviews say the speakers sound good and have actual bass for once but the mids/high increase the higher the volume gets
honestly these are very good sounding speakers for a smartphone especially when i compare to my galaxy note 9
For me the speakers are great, I have compared the sound with the iphone 13 and I have to say the pixels are better, at least for me. I know that for some they have too much bass, but for me it is perfect

I don't know how good the S9+ sounds, never had one. What I can tell is that the P6 Pro sounds good, it has a slight imbalance between top and bottom, but in terms of clarity and bass, it's a good sounding phone speaker. So either your expectations are extraodinary, or your device is defective. Best go to the place where you bought it and ask that the store rep compares the sound of your phone to one that they have on display, that way you can quickly find out if your device has a defect.
Thank you all! Is there a good app or sound piece that I can use to test?

I wanted to go to the local Betsy Buy (bought it online through BB) but it's not available there. Not sure they could give me a device to compare mine to
I honestly felt the same way comparing the 6P to my 2 XL. the 6P sounds rather flat and unbalanced. Much prefer the older device.

Wow really? You have them side by side and compared? I ask because my 4 XL was definitely better than my 2 XL and the 6 Pro is definitely louder and has more range than my 4 XL at all volume increments. I agree it's ever so slightly louder on the bottom speaker than the ear piece one but it's not horrible.

I checked out the demo models at best buy both the 6 and pro. I will say at max volume the new devices are cleaner sounding.

Yeah in your home or reasonably quieter area than Best Buy, the difference is very noticeable. I keep all my sound volumes a little lower than my 4 XL settings because it's that much louder.
