Mobile phones are one of the most used devices for listening to music. It is not even risky to assume that most people spend more time listening to music on their mobile than using any other device (such as the computer or even the car). Many users also look for the best possible sound quality when listening to their favorite songs.
Headphones with good sound quality are important, but we can also configure some settings directly on the mobile phone. to make the music sound its bestwe can even improve the sound of games and series and movies that we watch. On Xiaomi phones, this is the way to access the best tool to improve audio quality.
How to Access and Use Equalizer on Xiaomi Phones
Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO phones that run HyperOS (although it is also available in the latest versions of MIUI) benefit from a ten band equalizerthat we can customize to get the sound we prefer when listening to music or watching multimedia content.
Best of all, you don’t have to install anything, the equalizer is available natively on Xiaomi phones, almost hidden among the various options in the settings menu. To access the equalizer, follow these steps:
- Let’s go to the settings menu
- We access the section Sound and vibrations
- We scroll down and click on Sound effects
- Then we continue Graphic Equalizer
This will give us access to a powerful tool to configure the default sound signature of our mobile. It is not a very difficult tool to use, it is only recommended try with different configurations until we find the type of sound we enjoy the most.
When setting up the equalizer, it is recommended use headphones
He Xiaomi equalizer has eight preset profilesincluding rock, jazz, pop, classical, hip hop, blues, electronic and metal. However, this tool also includes an option to customize the equalizer to our liking. It is a ten-band equalizer, to be able to modify in detail the intensity of the treble, midrange and bass of the sound.
If you have never used an equalizer, It’s not as difficult as you might imagine.. As a very basic reference, we could say that in the bass we find the sounds of instruments such as the bass, the kick of a drum kit, the most intense sounds of electronic music and much more. In the mids are the vocals, guitars and other instruments, and in the treble are the cymbals and other instruments and a more shine
Again, it is a very basic and informal reference which can be used to start “playing” with an equalizer until you find the sound you like best. You can also take as a reference the changes you see in the equalizer of the default profiles and follow their example to create your own profile. For example, you will notice that in Rock and electronic music the bass is accentuated in the equalizer. Once you have created your ideal configuration, the music will sound better than ever on your mobile.
