Tab S8 Ultra poor Bluetooth audio

southerner — Fri, 21 Jul 2023 15:28:33 GMT

When I compare Bluetooth audio quality between my Tab S8 Ultra and S21 5G the S21 5G seems leagues ahead of the Tab S8 Ultra. Bit surprised at that. The Tab S8 Ultra sounds flat, tinny, distorted above an average volume level and the S21 5G gives a rich, powerful sound pushed right up loud. Just wondered if I'm missing something?

I did find that made a small improvement but to me it still sounds ghastly compared to my S21 5G.

When you say Bluetooth, you mean the sound from your headset/earpiece/external speaker?

If so, there should be no discernable difference as both should support and stream the audio identically.

If you meant the sound from the devices, I'd question If your S8 Ultra is defective as there's a night and day difference between sound from that Tablet vs an S21 phone.
