If you are passionate about music and spend many hours listening to your favorite artists, then it is for you listen to your tracks with all possible quality. To do this, you just have to make a couple of adjustments from the developer options.
Why does my Xiaomi limit the audio quality?
If at any time you listened to music from a high-end mobile and noticed that the sound fell short, even using decent wireless headphones, here is the reason. The device limited the quality by default. But why this?
Although there is no official answer in this regard, it can be concluded that mobile phone manufacturers limit the audio quality over Bluetooth to achieve lower latency between audio and video. A higher sound level can unsync video audiowhich can be a very annoying situation for many.
In fact, to play videos it is not necessary to have such sound quality. So a moderate level is much better and benefits the synchronization between tracks.
On the other hand, a higher frequency generates a high battery consumption, both mobile and headphones. Therefore, the hours of autonomy are reduced by a higher bitrate. So, if you don’t listen to music that often and you prioritize the charge percentage, then you won’t need to improve the sound quality via Bluetooth on your Xiaomi, Redmi or POCO.
How to improve the sound quality via Bluetooth on a Xiaomi, Redmi or POCO
On the other hand, if you are a person who is very attached to Spotify or other music applications, then you may want to know how to improve the sound quality over Bluetooth. This trick is extremely fast and can be achieved through the developer options.
Developer options is a secret menu dedicated to the most specialized users for testing on mobile. You can access this menu pressing 7 times in a row on the MIUI version in the ‘About phone’ section. Once achieved, follow these instructions:
- Enter in Settings > Additional settings > Developer options.
- Scroll down the menu to the ‘Networks’ section.
- In section ‘Bluetooth audio sample rate”, select the highest option. For this tutorial, the highest frequency was 96.0 kHz.
- In section ‘Bluetooth audio bits per sample‘, it again selects the highest available bitrate. In this case, it is 32 bits/sample.
As you can see, with these two simple adjustments, you will be able to improve the sound quality via Bluetooth on a Xiaomi, Redmi or POCO. When you log into Spotify or Amazon Music again, you’ll notice improvements in audio, which can be a real treat.
Of course, always keep in mind that you should only make these adjustments if you give a high priority to music. Otherwise, it is best to keep the default settings so as not to affect autonomy or video playback.
Xiaomi mobiles offer many other tricks to improve the sound in seconds or even to equalize the audio in your headphones. If you want to know these and more settings, stay connected with XIAOMIADICTOS on Telegram and on their social networks.
