Sound Issues After One UI 6.1.1 Update

[PockyDucky]

Hello all, I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this issue. After updating to One UI 6.1.1 on my Samsung Galaxy S23 Utra, I noticed that the sound from my phone noticeably came out worse in comparison to before updating to One Ui 6.1.1, either in phone-speaker mode or output mode like Bluetooth or Headphones. I can describe the sound as muddy, tiny with less clarity and bass. I've tried every setup in the equalizer, turning Dolby Atmos on and off... everything but none of those helped. This really affects my overall experience and honestly leads to big disappointment. For now, I encourage users who are having the same issue to report it to Samsung as soon as possible so that they can address this issue and fix it in the next update. Thank you!

Same here just noticed it after the update too

The sound has always been trash on my s23plus. It's impossible to listen to music.

My s23 is doing the same. I had to get a volume booster to even help the problem. My fosgate 12 sounds like **bleep** along with all my previous great sounding speakers. Then noticed it on my earbuds and Bluetooth speaker: lowered volume and sounds crappy. Really not happy at all. Hope they fix it soon.

My volume is distorted too, and I even hard reset, and that didn't work.

Same problem here.. I have the S23 FE and I noticed some volume issues since past week or so but now the overall quality of the sound is terrible.. I thought it was the Bluetooth headphones at first but I compared with other devices and the problem is definitely in the cellphone.. 

Hope they'll patch it soon because the experience is definitely very bad at the moment

I have the zflip 6 and after the update my phone becomes unresponsive at time and the phone is still in great condition

I also have a similar fault, I should not have compulsively upgraded. Now I find myself with a 1000€ device that sounds bad, with distorting treble and really poor overall clarity. in comparison a 200€ Honor sounds much better, night and day, i'm perplexed. Such a shame!

I just updated my Samsung s23 ultra to one ui 6.1 and the sound quality is terrible now. I just bought headphones and I was trying them to understand whether they are good. Now it messed up everything!

Will a patch come soon, this is insane. Why do you break something working? Why do you release an update before you make sure it works?
