The Music quality as well as volume is very low on the Speaker and in any head phones.
Headphones I used were Razer's Kraken and Electra, and trust me those are some phenomenal and Base heavy headphones.Yet I could not "hit the Base".
I had read lots of reviews(always do) and all had it mentioned that "sound quality is low". I thought it might be people who are overreacting.
Then my headphones that can even make a 2 decade old portable FM player sound like a discotheque were not enough for this.
Did my own thorough test with my older Lumia 620 and a micromax just to make sure. Another person present( Just in-case my ears were playing tricks on me)
I put the same song in both phones- "Same File" so Bitrate discrepancy will be avoided.
Listened to different sections of the song - lows, mids and highs. All turned out to be inferior in terms of sound quality and volume.Especially the Bass. Basically the Music sounded very FLAT. EQ did not help in any way either.
Also Sony'in ear'- MDR EX110 gave unfavorable results.
Other features are OK. Dont go by the large specs of the cpu.At first it seems good . add a few apps and it goes slow. Multitasking- Quite average- goes slow.
Screen is great, looks stand out in the crowd and are very impressive(white)-coz black looks just like any other phone.
The camera front and back are amazing.Nice photos in daylight. Indoors and low lighting need a quite steady hand.
Videocalling is amazing on this phone due to a good mic and front camera.
Battery lasts 1 full day with moderate use-music, wifi, chat, pics, calls, games.
Need to charge daily.
If your not that much into music and this fits in your budget. go for it.
But this phone is not for music lovers.
