We already made you aware of several issues
that are affecting the LG Nexus 4, but one issue that won’t seem to go
away for some is the annoying buzzing sound from the earpiece. Some
people were not even aware of such an issue, that was until they were
made aware of it and forced them to listen for it. We can tell you that
the annoying buzz is not affecting all Nexus 4 handsets, but other
smartphones are also suffering from the same issue as well.
We’re told that the LG Optimus G, the Samsung galaxy S3, Skyrocket and even Apple’s iPhone 4S also suffers from the buzzing noise.
One would have presumed that it would be a software issue with the
Nexus 4, but when you consider that the issue still continues even with
the latest version of Android Jelly Bean and also the fact that other
manufacturers are suffering from the same issue – well it does bring
build quality or poor quality control into question.
While we have no evidence that this is the case, how come the same
issue is affecting several Android handsets and also an iOS device as
well? While all these devices are different, they do have something in
common, and that’s a need to get them built as quick and as cheap as
possibly, so doesn’t take a genius to work out that such issues will
arise.
It’s obvious that the first process will be to look at software
tweaks, but if this still does not work (which for some it hasn’t) then
it has to be a manufacturing issue. This does seem more plausible
because the reports that we have received from Nexus 4 owners seems to
show that it’s isolated to a small percentage, so surely it’s not
software related?
Like we mentioned above this buzzing noise doesn’t only affect the Nexus 4,
but LG are one of the worst offenders for the problem. Many consumers
have taken their Nexus 4 back because of a problem, only to find that
their replacement handset suffered from the same issue. Surely this is
yet more proof that the manufacturing process now needs to be looked at?
We should give the likes of Apple, LG and Samsung the benefit of the
doubt here because they are trying to cram far too much technology into
these small devices, and as such there is bound to be an issue with
feedback or some other sort of issue because of their close proximity
with each component, but then again they have a duty to their customers
to offer us devices that do not have such issues.
