    I'm a total noob when it comes to audio, is the constant blinking green light at the top of the beam normal?

    • @SoulOfTech
      @SoulOfTech  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hey, that usually means you have not set up your beam yet via the Sonos app. Once you install the Sonos app you can pair it and optimize it's settings for a better experience.

    I bought a Beam Gen 2 and can't tell a difference between it and the old Vizio sound bar I had. I plugged it in expecting amazing sound, and to my ear it just sounds the same. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not.

    Hmmm... Could it be that Sonos app on iOS uses iPhones Sonar sensor to scan the room? If that's so then it's not lazy programming and android phones just don't have such a capability

    • @SoulOfTech
      @SoulOfTech  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The iPhone does not have a "Sonar" scanner, not sure where you got that from. It's mostly just a calibration issue, since there are so many androids phones each one requires its own calibration which requires more testing and programming per model. With there being less iPhone models its easier to just program for them.

    • @JU0DAS
      @JU0DAS 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Oh sorry, I meant to say - LIDAR sensor which pretty much achieves the same thing. Must have been too tired that day 😄

    • @jaylomere
      @jaylomere 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@SoulOfTechI think the app uses a lidar sensor which is present in every iPhone past the 10 while a lot of android phones don’t have them which couldn’t be the reason the app support isn’t too good, this product also seems to be more targeted towards Apple users since it’s comparability with a lot of the feature that Apple offers

    The review seemed good, but the fact that you feel the need to absolute murder every 5th word instead of talk like a normal person made it unwatchable.

    • @SoulOfTech
      @SoulOfTech  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

      Hi Oliver, thanks for your honest feedback. English is not my native language which means every pronunciation of every word you hear here was something I have been learning overtime. It may seem like a "murder" of words from your perspective but it's just a by-product of learning a totally different language on my end. I realize the concept English as a secondary dialogue may be foreign (or even scary based on your choice of words) to you but rest assured this is me talking normally :)
      Hope you have an awesome day, thanks for stopping by!
