In my experience, this is often people who might not have access to a way to access headphones. Yeh its annoying, it doesnt ruin my day tho. Just go with it
last time I saw this, it was some older guy blasting alice in chains, which is what i was listening to anyway
I agree that listening in public is a crime.
On a side note, if anyone here has heard some of the latest gen iPhones, they honestly sound dramatically better than the vast majority of Bluetooth speakers, especially when held sideways for stereo. At medium volume with my eyes closed, it sounds comparable to my MacBook speakers. I’m seriously shocked at whatever magic Apple is pulling off there.
Obviously neither compare to an audiophile setup, but they’re far above listenable.
I’ve not yet heard an Android compare personally, but I’d love to be proven wrong.
There are some android with dual speaker, but the point of post was a phone and/ or laptop audio is poor compared to a real sound system.
Sometimes I think about what it takes to build a precision EMP device that works like a laser pointer. For this exact scenario.
My old Xperia Z5 Compact was the only phone I've ever owned that had decent speakers. You could actually listen music with them without getting pissed off. It was small and had amazing audio capabilities and great camera, easily the best phone I've ever owned.
But listening music / watching videos in public with your phone speakers on is an abomination. It should be made illegal everywhere.
@WhisperingEye also when you see people who only talk on their phone with speaker
And then keeping the bottom end of their phone to the ear to understand what the other person is saying.
The stupidity of this is hard to grasp.
For music always headphones, because the shitty laptop speakers also not much better as those from the phone.
I have turned around and played the most annoying sound scene from dumb and dumber.
@WhisperingEye people do not do this to appreciate their music, they do this in the vain hope of getting into an argument or fight with a random stranger. I am utterly convinced of it.
"Bro this song is so lit !"
mash up of high frequency noises
I feel more comfy doing that on my bike since i move by quick
Headphones of almost all types hurt my ears or fall off too easily to be comfortable.
And my new phone has better sound than my old phone and TV anyways. Yes, both of them ARE around 10 years old.
Have you tried one of these?
I haven't, but interesting they exist!
That wants me to change my country.
