Speakerphone (loudness, clarity)

[XDA_RealLifeReview]

Proper etiquette aside (hint: don't use speakerphone while doing your "business" in a public bathroom), rate this thread to express how you think the Huawei Nexus 6P's speakerphone performs. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it's loud and it's clear.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Crisp, and doesn't distort at max volume.

I'd love to hear more about this from users. Wondering if it can properly drive my ath m50x

Although not really the intended purpose of this thread, It should have no issues driving a pair of m50x's. I don't personally have a pair to test with, but those are generally effortless to drive and the 6p has pretty solid audio across the board in my experience.

I have both Nexus 6P and ATH-M50x. They are loud at max volume; easy to say they are uncomfortable to listen to at this volume.

PS: The ATH-M50X have 38 ohms impedance, an amplifier isn't even required for using these headphones. Once you get past 50 ohms impedance you would want to consider an amp. Adding an amp to your audio will color the sound, the ATH-M50x's are well known for their flat-response I would recommend keeping them that way and modify the sound through an equalizer.

The 6p has a terrible headphone jack plain and simple.

The incoming sound is great, but I keep hearing that my voice is very distorted on the other end. When I switch back off of speakerphone everything apparently sounds fine. I've heard of other people having the same problem. I'm thinking it's probably the noise cancelling mic being on during a speakerphone call.

Phone calls have been subpar so far, bad incoming sound and people struggling to hear me on the other side. Speaker is nice and loud though

I have both a Nexus 6 and 6P. The Nexus 6P speakers are good, but the 6 are louder and clearer IMO

 

[DonnieDoezoe]

earbuds sucks btw

Seems a bit louder than the Moto X 2014, but less balanced. Alltogether great speakers, though.

The speakers are LOUD!! Its one of the loudest speakers out there. Its not as good with the bass like HTC's speakers in the M8 and m9 but Hauwei and Google have packed some awesome speakers in this phone

 

[xSilas43]

mediocre speaker volume however with viper4android it makes it 4.5

 

[JE78]

Kind of quiet. Good for normal use but wouldn't want to try and hear the speaker in the car.

Did you check the equalizer?

Coming from HTC M7 with Boomsound, so I'm a bit spoiled regarding good speaker quality. The 6P comes closes to the M7 but boomsound speakers definetly have more bass. But it's OK for me

 

[G.H.Woo]

this is my first time with smartphones with stereo speakers. its quality, volume both are amazing

 

[EarlZ]

Its loud but with certain voice types i here some sort of distortion or rattle which disappears if I put my finger on the speaker ( not fully covering it )
