Samsung... Thank you so much for this. I've always been struggling with this for music, because my hearing is very different between my ears, and pretty bad for my left ear. This isn't a magical solution but... I've never heard a sound this rich with both my ears. I'm almost having tears.

Just for this, this is the best phone I've ever owned

@slightlyflightyone yeah, I never thought I'd get a Samsung until pretty recently. Their change in design really please me, and their Android overlay is packed with features, some super useful and store less, but still very fluffy and nice to have

@slightlyflightyone I know both of those, I used them on my previous phone! :)
I'm fine with the Samsung launcher for now though!

Now, why isn't this feature marketed again? Because if it were I wouldn't have considered buying another phone for a single second.

Also I feel like me and other people with impaired hearing shouldn't have to buy an expensive flagship to get this

@Siphonay I know! That is one of the original things I planned to make with OokTech (I got sick and lost a lot of my hearing a few years ago). I made some stuff to get a cheap (like <50 euros) hearing aid thing that could work like a normal hearing aid or you could plug in a 3.5mm cable into it and it would act as an amplifier between the phone/computer/stereo and headphones or speakers.
But patents in the US are horrible and terrible and bad.

@Siphonay I keep hoping someone comes out with bluetooth hearing aids instead of requiring I get them from a company that includes a t-coil based adapter that I have to charge separately.
