Speakers
The Redmi Note 10 has a pair of nice-sounding stereo speakers. To be fair, we can’t be too pretentious about the speakers as rarely do we see a stereo set of those in this price bracket.
But if we have to be more critical, there are some things that need addressing in the next generation. For instance, the maximum loudness is slightly above average, and there’s a noticeable distortion of the vocals and highs when you crank up the volume to maximum. This can be avoided by toning down to around 80% of the volume. This way, you still get a decent strength, but the overall sounding becomes clearer. However, there’s nothing you can do about the fullness as the bass isn’t as prominent at any level.
We do have to add that the speakers are well-balanced and the top one is just as loud as the bottom ones.
Once again, these observations shouldn’t be a decisive factor on whether you should be buying this phone or not. Let’s be realistic – the stereo speakers are a nice bonus to the overall package. The only real issue that could have been avoided is the placement of the secondary speaker. When holding the phone horizontally, your left hand will almost always muffle the left speaker during gaming or when watching videos. You might have to hold the device in a different way than you are used to.
Use the Playback controls to listen to the phone sample recordings (best use headphones). We measure the average loudness of the speakers in LUFS. A lower absolute value means a louder sound. A look at the frequency response chart will tell you how far off the ideal “0db” flat line is the reproduction of the bass, treble, and mid frequencies. You can add more phones to compare how they differ. The scores and ratings are not comparable with our older loudspeaker test. Learn more about how we test here.
