The mobile phone has long ceased to be used exclusively as a means of communication, and the radio receiver, records and everything you can listen to music came up long before smartphones from the people's great love for music. Fortunately, now there is a technique, like Ipod, which allows not only listening to music, but also being in touch with friends, taking pictures and playing games. But there are people for whom the main criterion is precisely the sound quality.
The first and honorable place was received by LG V20 - experts believe that the smartphone has an ideal ratio of noise reduction and output signal. Coupled with quality headphones, there should be no flaws in the sound. The new generation DAC independently detects the resistance of the headphones and adapts the audio for them. Lovers loudly listen to music will be pleasantly surprised - high-quality speakers allow you to listen to music at full volume without problems, and the volume even more than some audio systems.
Next to the second place - HTC 10. He from the very beginning positioned himself as a phone for a music lover, so he received good reviews. The 24-bit DAC is not too impressive, but smartphone received a powerful amplifier and optimized software. A smartphone can be described as a "quality and loud sound". The company patented the BoomSound technology, which optimizes the output signal giving it the highest quality. In addition, there is a Dolby Audio mode simulating several stereo systems that are connected in parallel. The smartphone is ideal for owners of a premium-class headset, since it has a built-in preamplifier. Equalizer allows you to customize the sound individually, but HTC 10 is not able to play Hi-Fi sound and this is its drawback.
Now let's remind about one more product - LG V10. It differs in sound quality, but the native player is especially prominent, which will be convenient both for those who have not yet encountered such a program, and for an inveterate music lover. The built-in equalizer may be incomprehensible, but other settings are very simple. Supports memory cards, so that all favorite albums will always be with the user.
Previous models were quite expensive, but budget devices are also famous for their achievements. Among them you can find ZTE Axon 7. It's a "green" smartphone on the market, but it shows itself pretty well. DAC and power amplifier guarantee the sound quality, and the built-in player can compete with many expensive brands. However, with all this there are disadvantages, like a bad EQ for 4 presets. If you compare it with the LG V20, then the sound volume is almost the same, but the signal-to-noise ratio differs and not for the better for ZTE. The smartphone will suit any music lover with a small system upgrade and fully justifies its price.
