    Oh yeah! Wrote about my experience with the E7 here:

    Lets just say I'm happy and will post up some video the blogs YouTube channel shortly...

    This vaults the S III to being the only phone for truly serious audio-lovers who want to use an Android device as their portable music player...

    On the subject of audio, I Got the galaxy 3s the other day after being an iphone owner for the last 2 years and overall im very happy with it. I have one major issue with it though. I find the volume isnt loud enough and its a particular issue when listening to music in the gym with bluetooth headphones as volume levels are lower with wireless than they are with wired headphones. Even with the volume right up it is nowhere near loud enough to enjoy. I didnt have this issue with my iphone. Similarly, when listening to movies with headphones on, its not particularly loud even on full volume (although loud enough).

    Has anyone else noticed this? Are there any apps available that increase the volume levels? Ive heard that with the galaxy 2, there was a code available which you put into the phone keypad which increased the volume. Does anyone know if there is a code for the galaxy 3 or when it is likely to be available?

    Thanks

    Definitely quieter than the iPhone (I compared it to my 4S). Are you using PowerAMP? It has an EQ and support for replaygain (if your songs have replaygain tags that is), and will increase volume a bit. Lots of people use Volume+ app too for this purpose, but I've no experience with that one. Voodoo Sound is coming soon, and after that your S3 should be capable of a lot more volume than the iPhone.

    Downloaded volume+. Its louder but sounds terrible very tinny. The app says that bass booster isnt working which probably explains it. Voodoo lounge is in the app store now but it says its not compatible with sg3. Are there any more?

    I'm sure I read someone is using Voodoo louder on the s3, maybe in testing, shouldn't be long though.

    Yes, not yet compatible as I said. I expect it to come in the next week or so, depending on Supercurio's schedule.
