k800i Speaker Distortion

scooby1970 · 14-08-2006, 19:12

Hiya, I've been more than happy with my K800i since having it last week. One thing I did notice though, is at the highest volume setting when playing music from the memory 1GB card (or straight from the internal memory) is that the sound distorts quite badly on some phones.

If I turn the volume down just half a notch, or 1 notch, then this distortion dissapears. Anyone else notice this, or do I have a dodgy speaker?

Thank you in advance.

No, they don't all do that. I use some of the same songs that I used on my Samsung D500 and my k750i and they play perfectly well at full volume on those machines with not the slightest distortion.

The sound goes really crackly, and I just want to know if anyone else has experienced this with the k800i when playing songs at full volume.

Note: the inbuilt songs/tones that came with the phone all play ok with no distortion at all.

Finglonga meant all the K800s do that. It could be sorted with a firmware upgrade when a new one is released.

It doesn't distort on my phone - either inbuilt or my MP3's either via headphones (not that you can listen to them that loud) or speakers.
