How to Improve and Increase the Sound on Xiaomi Phones

The audio of our mobile phone is essential, not only to listen to music or multimedia content but also to listen to the sound of calls, among other things. In Xiaomi mobiles we find a great variety of results given the many devices that exist and luckily for us we have within our reach many methods to improve the sound with a series of tricks.

Improve and Increase the Sound on Xiaomi Phones

By using MIUI as its personalization layer, Xiaomi phones share options and functions that will give us more resources to make the sound of our phone improve noticeably. There are many options and various methods to get the sound of our Xiaomi or Redmi mobile to be louder or the quality to be what we want and to achieve this we are going to go step by step developing all the possibilities.

Clean the speaker

Before moving on to more advanced methods, we must be aware that just by cleaning the dirt from our mobile and especially from the speakers, we are going to achieve a very different result. Although we can not see the dirt, there are particles that adhere to the speaker itself and make the audio not as expected. We must also take into account the speaker at the top, which although it is smaller fulfills its functions to achieve stereo sound.

The process of cleaning the speakers requires patience and care because we could damage it and cause it to not work again. With the help of a pin we can try to clean the accesses to the speaker without sticking the pin, and once we have managed to free it from the walls we are going to blow. In addition we can help ourselves with a light to know the state of the interior and to know if there is really something that prevents the sound from being the best.

Change the region to increase the sound

Xiaomi has a presence in practically the whole world and its devices adapt to the needs of each country and region, that is why in countries of the European Union such as Spain, we have a series of restrictions unlike what we find for example in India. These restrictions affect sound, as the European Commission regulates sound limits to protect consumers.

However, bypassing these restrictions is very simple, we just have to go to Settings> Additional Settings> Region and change it for a country like India. Just by making this change we will have access to some extra functions and also the sound levels of our Xiaomi mobile will increase , a simple adjustment that not everyone knows.

Options to increase the sound

In some mobiles we find within the Settings> Sound section access to various options to modify the sound levels or adapt it according to the type of content we are going to see. Unfortunately Xiaomi does not add this option and does not collaborate with Dolby Atmos on their mobiles so that the sound of a quality jump, however we will be able to obtain similar results with any other equalizer like the one we are going to know.

Use an equalizer

We will only have to download the Flat Equalizer application on our Xiaomi mobile to have options like those of other mobiles. It is a simple tool, which is rare not to find in MIUI, although luckily it has an easy solution.

Once we have downloaded and installed it, we can activate the equalizer, manually modifying the sound parameters and testing them to check the result, although we recommend opting for presets. These templates allow us to improve the sound for music or movies, depending on the need and the moment. We also have a “bass boost” mode that reinforces the bass of our mobile and with which we will achieve a great difference in the results.

Use an external speaker

In addition to all the resources that we have known and that works on the internal speakers of our mobile, we have at our disposal a host of small bluetooth speakers that will allow us to greatly improve the sound of our mobile. Depending on our need, we can choose many of them, but if you are looking for a small one, easy to transport and with no battery problems, we have an easy solution.

Homemade tricks to improve audio on Xiaomi

We can also improve the sound of our Xiaomi mobile without spending money with a speaker that we are going to manufacture ourselves or taking advantage of the resources that we have at home. Amplifying the sound is very simple if we think about it, since we only need an element that manages to expand the sound as the trumpets do. One of the best known methods is with the elongated potato pot or with the soda cans.

But in addition to this we can resort to other elements such as the bathroom wall. The tiles bounce back, you can see for yourself. It is a very fast and practical way to listen to the music we like best with better sound, for example while taking a shower.

Improve sound with headphones on Xiaomi

Before we have seen that in the Xiaomi options there are no options to adapt the sound and get better if we use the internal speakers of our mobile. Although things change when you use headphones connected through the audio jack or via USB Type C. In this case, we can access Settings> Sound and vibration> Sound effects and have access to various improvement options.

The first thing we will have to do is activate the Mi Sound enhancer, with which we will increase the possibilities of the headphones and the one that will give us access to the equalizer with which we can improve the audio we listen to depending on our tastes. In case we have Xiaomi headphones we will be able to choose your profile among all those that appear, one more option to better the result.

Change the Bluetooth audio codec

In case we opt for a bluetooth headset or a speaker with this technology, we must know that not all mobiles work the same with them. The audio codec has a lot to do with the result and it can be decisive between enjoying good sound quality with our Xiaomi mobile phone or, conversely, the sound is standard.

Through the Xiaomi developer options we are going to be able to change the audio codec manually, we just have to go to Settings> On the phone and press repeatedly on the MIUI version. Then we go back and in Settings we will look for the option of Additional settings> Developer options, from where we will find the option that we show you. We just have to tap on “Bluetooth audio codec” and we have different profiles to try among to make the sound even better on our bluetooth devices.
