What is the sound quality like without using earphones or external speaker? Thanks.

if you were in a library you would be asked to turn it down but out doors at bus stop you need head phones.

Honestly I can't answer cause the thing turned off a few days after I got it. It never came back on. I ended up getting a refund

I wanted to send it back because i had to many problems with the wifi connection and the screen was not very big. I do not recomend this android touch screen. Poor quality. Sound was not clear and totally not worth the money i put out on this. Big lots haves the same kind of android touch screen for about $10 more.

I own this tablet and I agree with DigitalGurl, the speaker is LOUD. Music and movies sound great without using my Bluetooth speaker. Of course with my headset the sound is wonderful.

Yes! You can use it without earphones and the volume is good. However, because the batteries are small (AAA), the louder you play it the quicker the batteries go. Using the earphones allows the batteries to last longer. It is the best really pocket-sized radio that I have ever seen.

There is a headphone jack that you could plug some external speakers into. Hope this helps!

Hmmm check your settings on your music sounds. Is the sound coming out of both speakers on the phone when you're not using headphones?

I'll add my $0.02. The sound isn't great and it's not loud enough. However, I found using headphones takes the sound quality from a 2 to a 10+. You could also purchase a small usb plug speaker.

It doesn't have a built in speaker. I connect to the audio output with headphones.

This was a gift for my grandson. He assures me that the sound quality is excellent, but he was using the internal speaker. I would not see any reason why it would not be satisfactorywith external speakers.

How does the speaker sound? If you watch Hulu or Netflix, etc... are you able to listen at a reasonable level without the speaker distorting or do you need to use headphones or plugin external speakers?

The sound quality is good. It does not pick up sounds from behind the camera well, as it shouldn't. The sound mics (stereo) zoom forward with optical zoom. There is no external mic input, so you must use the mics on the camera.

the sound is very, very good. you do not need any type of sound bar. its overkill. i listen to music thru youtube and it sounds great

I personally think it's fantastic. Now keep in mind I'm not an audiophile.....but I've listened to it at fairly loud levels and have never heard any distortion. This is, of course, as long as it's plugged in. If you're planning on listening to it with the battery the volume levels go significantly down. I'd say they are ok if you're wanting some background music in a small area but if you're looking to use the speaker as the primary source of attention or in a large area you're definitely going to want it plugged in.

Superior audio reproduction for mp3 devices especially when compared to "dedicated" external speakers in same price range. I have not had much success with getting a strong radio signal so listen to radio online via mp3 device, its a convoluted way to do it but it works for me as the sound quality is so good.

I have not had any complaints about the sound quality. I can hear perfectly fine and folks on the other end have never asked be to repeat anything because of the sound quality.

Hello. The sound is pretty good. I just use it as a mobile for when I do massage. I don't have a Bose to compare it with, although if you can fork out the extra bucks for a Bose, I would do that instead. All the sound is good for what I need it for.

Mine has very good sound. It does require external speakers. Maybe have the sound muted, or otherwise disabled in your settings.

Hello: It does play loud without earphones. In fact, this answer to you is coming from someone who very, very, etc, rarely uses earphones and has never used earphones with this mp3 player. I turn the volume of the play all the way up, then adjust he volume of the speakers. Also, I purchased this item from Amazon, but it was defective. I never got around to returning it so I trashed it. My Girlfriend had one that worked so my answer to you comes from using hers. I like this mp3 player very much especially for Videos, but now, I really like the Apple iPod. God Bless.
