Not quite,
Hermes=TyTN Introduced last year, available from many carriers, Cingular8525 in USA, many other names per carrier worldwide. It can be unlocked and there are many Rom updates available
Kaiser=TyTN II, just introduced worldwide by HTC except in USA, soon to sold as the AT&T Tilt. It new so it has not been unlocked yet, some software and tweaks for Hermes works on Kaiser, but not all. There are no Roms available yet.
Different Volume External Speaker
Why the Volume External Speaker is different from TyTn and TyTn II.
The external speaker TyTn when i call another telephone or i video call another telephone is VERY GOOD AUDIO, is very hight audio.
The TyTn II is NO GOOD LEVEL AUDIO. The Volume Level is very low.
When run the program TomTom and test speaker, this is very hight.
Where is possible solution?
Is possible have name of registry for this problem?

Hold yer horses man!
I have no issues with the external speaker on mine.... Not sure what you are talking about.
Me either mine is just as loud if not louder than the hermes so maybe you just have the volume down. Or maybe you have a bad speaker bring it back and have them test another to see if yours is weak.

hello all,
just a quick question for someone that has owned a Nokia N95 and a Kaiser?
Which one has better and superior sound quality?
my mind is pretty such convinced i need a Kaiser as my next phone, but one of my main uses for mobiles are music!
Or could someone point me in the right direction as to find out the specs of the speakers used in both devices.
cheers

wondering the same thing here. alogn with teh sound quality. im talking about the loud speaker, not headphones.
Sound quality is okay on the Kaiser, Nokia sound chipsets are so much better than the HTC ones. The n95 is a media powerhouse. Has better sound, better camera. The kaiser is a business phone and has a lot of pros.

well how well does it compare to another windows mobile device? such as the tornado?

With all due respects the sound on mobiles is dreadful, even good ones, why on earth anyone wants to listen to music out of 10p miniature speaker I have no idea, to annoy people around them I expect
The sound on the Kaiser is just about what you expect for voice, and how would expect for music, sounds like it is coming from a 10p cheap miniature speaker with some extra vibrations.
Use headphones or buy a device designed for music is my advice
Regards

Yupe, the sound on the built-in speaker of the Kaiser is really awful for listening music.
It is very laud, but really, not for listening music.
i think the speaker sound quality on Touch Diamond is not good. Low volume and weakness on mid-tone and bass. do you feel the same ?
Hmmm...Well, small speakers are weak at lower pitches. Are you comparing the quality to other similar devices or to other speakers in general?

i'm compared it with my HTC Touch Elf. I use same MP3 ringtone on both devices. and e-mail alert "wav" with pushmail. When email arrive, the voice of "You've got mail" is big different in quality.
In my Touch Elf, sometimes people will thought it's real human speech.
Fair enough. That's not good then...
TBH, I think the speaker on the Touch looks like it should have a better sound quality than the speaker on the Touch Diamond too...
Then I guess I will be happy since it's bound to be better than the HTC tornado wich was my last HTC device..
what do tou think about signal strength??
Hi,
I work in a big society of telecommunications, and I'm an acoustician. I measured a lot of mobile phones, not only WM compliant. In general, the quality of mobile phone is very bad, I measure a HTC P3300, and it's not so good as a Sony Ericsson Wxxx for example.
I mean that it's so crazy that we spend a lot of money in a WM compliant phone, having a bad voice quality ! What are HTC's acousticians doing ? It's time to put good transducers in our phones !

I don't know why, because the speaker quality in HTC Touch Elf is still up to normal people standard. So, I believe that HTC Touch Diamond, as a sucessor, should be better or equal to that in Touch Elf; but I know it's not the case now.
Maybe this is another drawback due to the thickness.

The Touch isn't that much thicker (something like 2mm), so I don't think there's any excuse for bad sound quality.
2mm is a nassive amount when you're considering the thickness of a device. But, I agree that in a year, components should have gotten smaller, and HTC should have never compromised call quality to make it thinner.

Hi,
What do you think about the Diamond touch voice quality ?
Good, bad,...
I've got a trinity, and its so bad quality voice...
Thanks for your answer !
This is very disappointing to me, I was looking forward to the Raphael. I may just have to wait and see what the Nvidia chip goes into and hope for better sound quality. Thanks, JASTECH
Hello guys!
Ive read some reviews on the new HTC Diamond before i bought it, and they said that the sound during calls was crystal clear.
Just one wondering.. my old SE K800i had really good sound quality during calls. But my new HTC Diamond sounds awful and like "in a can". They here me where well, but i hear them pretty bad.
Do you guys have the same problem, or is it me? Ive removed all the plastics
No thoughts at all?

Sadly, "some reviews" are not very objective. Or maybe they meant by "crystal clear" that you hear no static noise
Diamond have moderate sound quality, thats all. Like almost all WM devices (at least all I know of).
Yep. It sounds like the person in the other end is sitting in a barrel. Worst sound quality I've ever had on a phone, sadly.

That many times is related to the network, rather than the phone. My sound is superb.

I did a "blind" test of an iPhone (1st gen) and the diamond when it comes to sound quality of phone calls. The diamond won hands down. I know...not very scientific but the 4 "reviewers" all found the sound quality of the diamond better.
Well, iPhone never actually excelled in phone voice quality either. Not sure why iPhone was brought into comparison anyway, nobody said its better

same here, over gsm the voice quality is better then my past phones.
My phone sounds rubbish compared to my old Artemis. That phone was fine and had a good speakerphone too. The one on my Diamond simply cannot be used because you can't hear what the other person is saying.
The Diamond is probably the worst phone I have had in a long time. I am seriously disappointed and I'm only still using it because I already sold my artemis.
as compared to my previous Nokia, voice quality seems to be seriously lacking in the midtones.
But i'll accept it because i know Nokia phones are phones 1st

Well I used nice Nokia 6233, perfect as a phone I guess, for a few weeks just prior my Diamond, I couldn't wait for to have HTC again, their sound quality is just superb, if you have bad voice quality that's your network to blame and their stupid amr compression.
I wish I can say this for Diamond speaker also but I can't, it's a disaster, but I guess they can't put larger one in this tiny case, so who cares
I consider buying the Z3 Compact. However, I read that the volume of the stereo speakers is really low and the sound is muffled.
Read this for example here:
gsmarena: "Sony Xperia Z3 Compact review: Not your usual suspect"
youtube: "Sony Xperia Z3 vs Z3 Compact speaker comparison"
In contrast to that the S5 mini is said to have great speakers. What do you think?

difficult to say, but I doubt it's "really low", it's all relative to what you compare it to. Maybe if you're worried you should wait until it's out and test it at some store.

The stereo speaker is indeed not as loud as the one from the Z1C.
But therefor the ear speaker is much louder and clearer.

Volume of Speakerphone Z3 C
The Youtube Video with the comparison between Z3 and Z3 Compact showed quite loud speaker volume for Z3 Compact but it was
kind of muffled on higher frequencies compared to Z3 .
Hopefully , Sony will fix this in production units.
However the Compact was peaking at 70 to 80 db which is very good compared to many.
I don't understand how GSM Arena is so low on this measurement.
You can hear in the Video that Z3 was above his speech level where GSM Arena would suggest otherwise.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTmq3jbWLJA&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Here is a more recent Video in which a Z3 Compact Speaker completely dominates a Nexus 5 in volume, fullness, and quality.
Again, the Z3 Compact is much louder than speech level.
Not scientific and it's Italian but the Speaker is very loud and clear for a phone.

Z3C speaker volume is little lower than Z#, but still it is quite loud for its size.
I was reading a review recently where the reviewer actually claimed the Z3/Z3C speakers were better than the HTC M8. I highly doubt that, but the fact that he was willing to making the comparison at all is very promising. I guess we'll see soon. It's already been determined that the Z3 has more clarity than the Z3C though, but I'm sure volume won't be an issue.

Maybe not - the Z3 Compact in the Btekt Video had a muffled quality which I hope was just a problem on that Unit.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTmq3jbWLJA&feature=youtube_gdata_player
This Italian Video has another Z3 Compact with no muffled high end and it is loud and full sounding.
Hopefully this is how actual production Units sound.
If so and SONY fine tunes Manual 20 megapixel Camera Modes - a great Phone and big seller.

I have both the Z3C and M8 and there's absolutely no comparison. The M8 speakers win by a mile in every category...loudness, clarity, stereo sound, etc.
Yes, I've been spoiled by the speakers on the M8 that I've been using for the last 6 months, no doubt, but what I find weird about the Z3C speakers is how clear and loud the earpiece is on a phone call yet when you turn on speakerphone, they suddenly become muffled with a much lower volume.
Are they BAD? No, not at all. But I've found that in an environment with normal ambient noise, they're just a little too muffled and have just a bit too low of a volume. I'm sure this has something to do with the waterproofing, so I'm OK making a compromise in one area for a net gain in another. I've just been a bit surprised (and possibly expected too much).
I just got the phone and by boosting the midrange frequencies on the equalizer (I use Google Play Music), you can get a *much* improved sound quality coming out of the speakers. For whatever reason, the default configuration for the speakers is relatively poor.

Cool tip! I'm not sure about fuller sound, but maxing out the equalizer has definitely increased the volume without any noticeable degradation to sound quality.
I am fairly certain that Z3 C speakers vary in volume and
clarity due to speakers used (which factory ?) or size
of cutouts on glass or other variations.
Comparison with One M 8 Mini:
Xperia Z3 Compact vs One Mini 2 Speaker Test: http://youtu.be/euz6DU3IUzY
Remember the Mini is not as loud as full sized HTC ONE
M 8 I heard both HTCs next to each other.
I have not heard Z3C yet but varied responses from users, reviewers, Videos suggest a lot of variation.
EDIT; Heard Z3C in Sony Store, new USA Z3C, and was very quiet on Speakerphone lower than Galaxy Alpha.
Some Videos demo very loud Z3 Cs.
Sony Xperia Z3 vs Sony Xperia Z3 Compact vs HTC O…: http://youtu.be/h2Z_vp9NMB0
The above Video the Z3 C is close in Volume to the full Z3 and both close to HTC ONE M 8 .
,Disregard Decibel Meter ( placed improperly) and use your ears.
Unfortunately, most Z3 Cs are not this loud.
I don't think it's soundproofing as much as actual speakers used, I suspect.different speakers in different
batches or factories.
Low speakers
I think the One m8 speakers are just a little bit better.
In my z3c top speaker is bit low more then down one. Or it is only me!!! Can anyone notice ?
Even I do love while listening songs on it, its a great piece .

THIS is the solution. I don't know why Sony had the speakers set to how they came out of the box, but you get a significant improvement if you play with the EQ etc
can you tell us which setting to tune for higher volume of the speakers?
+1 and how volume up when i speak with someone on speaker beacuse voice is very quiet, definitly when i drive car.
My z3 compact speakers are just as loud as my htc one m7 but they sound much more tiny than htc. No bass.
