Chromebook problem

Smith7 — Sat, 12 Oct 2024 12:34:54 GMT

I have just purchased a Lenovo Chromebook with a 8GB ram

It is very quick and I am very pleased with it apart from the speaker volume is very low/poor

I have checked the speaker setting by clicking on the time in the BRHS and everything looks OK the speakers on are full

Any Chromebook users have any ideas

Thanks

@Smith7 Not an answer to solve your internal speaker volume problem, But..

have a look at this item on ebay.

eBay item number:405102646470

And search for "Laptop External Speakers"

The speakers on the work Panasonic Toughbook CF20 are pretty rubbish - I use an Anker Soundcore 2 bluetooth speaker when I need to use the sound.

Plenty of available options for eternal speakers.

Update just spoken to the Lenovo helpline

The speakers are only 2 watts so that's the problem

When I use the headphones it's very loud and I have to reduce the volume on them

Will have to try the external speakers that was suggested

Problem solved borrowed a Jamjar worked perfectly

Thanks

@Smith7 Surely you needed 2 jamjars, for stereo output ? ? ? ?

As for headphones.... I can recommend ONE ODIO
