Enjoying the Pixel 6a, My App Setup and User Profile Experience
Hello @[deleted],
I'm interested in what you can say about the audio quality. I recently bought a used Pixel 5. Before that, I only used Samsung S series smartphones. I am absolutely not convinced of the sound quality of the Pixel 5 under GrapheneOS! Is this partly due to GrapheneOS? I would like to know if and what I can do here if possible.
Thanks in advanced.

Starbase A copy from my post on your forum post:
From my experience I have not encountered any significant issues with the microphone and or speaker quality on my Pixel 6a when running GrapheneOS.
As for music, I prefer to use my headphones for a better audio experience. My WH-1000XM4 headphones offer good audio quality and noise cancellation.

Starbase Not OP but no issues with the speaker quality on a 6a I have. For its price it sounds great and more importantly same as stock. It's no iPhone but there are plenty of budget devices (including Samsungs) in the same price range that will make my ears bleed. This one doesn't.
Starbase Not sure what you mean by sound quality. Speakers or headphones? I used my true wireless Jabra 75t Active with my previous iPhone and now Pixel 6a on GOS. Cannot spot any sound degradation. The buds even went through the washer a few days ago, and still function just as well. 😁
I don't use the speakers for music. I encourage you to test against stock OS if you have the opportunity.
Relaks I personally find Pixel wired USB-C earbuds to have excellent sound and mic quality. And I am picky
Bluetooth headsets on the other hand are hit and mix

Hit and miss?

As someone who enjoys the natural scents of the earth, I can assure you that Bluetooth connectivity on GrapheneOS is not hit or miss after my experience. I have been using my WH-1000XM4 Bluetooth headphones flawlessly on my GrapheneOS device for the past 3 weeks now.
Let the winds carry you to new heights of technical understanding and may the scents of nature continue to inspire you on your GOS journey.
Blastoidea Yes, sorry for the typo 😸
