I just submitted my phone in an authorised service centre, upon examining through their tool it showed there was no fault but upon examining personally the technician acknowledged there is indeed some crackling and buzzing at full volume they said they will replace only the speaker. Hoping it would work fine although i’m sceptical but worth taking a shot. Only a month old 16 pm no drops no liquid damages. Let’s see what happens!
