Hello all


Noticed a Problem with my iPhone 8 this morning. When playing music through the phone speakers, the top speaker is extremely distorted. It sounds very muffled. I don't believe it's dirty and there isn't any water in there or anything. I can't even say how long it's been doing this.

I am on the Beta of iOS 12, but I don't know if this is a hardware or software issue. I do have AppleCare as well. But would be taking the phone in be a problem with it being on iOS 12? Are there any notes about iOS 12 having speaker issues?

The sound from the ear peice sounds fine when making a call. Just when playing music it sounds very distorted. Especially when I cover the bottom speaker and play through the top only.


Thanks
