Is anyone having audio issues wearing headphones? There’s an unbearable static noise on mine from the moment I restart, and even factory reset. I’ve tried every OS channel as well, tried different headphones and I’m sure they’re plugged in correctly.

On top of that, compared to original SD, sound is a complete downgrade both through headphones and front speakers. Ive heard Yotubers claim new one is, if not better, at least louder is what makes me think I may have got a lemon, since mine is neither.

A trade of sound quality for better screen would be a deal breaker for me but the static gives me hope I just got a bad unit, just not sure as to whether send it back or wait for an update to fix it.

    I’m having the same issue and it’s not clear to me if it’s a hardware or software thing. When I use bluetooth headphones I don’t have the problem at all, it’s only when plugged into the headphone jack. I lean toward it being a software thing because there’s a lot of jank being reported with the new major OS update, but with it being a new device you always have to wonder if there’s a hardware issue.
