And yet, for all the quibbles with testing methodology, here we are 9 pages deep and still nobody has produced a video without screen buzz.
The naysayers are going around in circles. We’ve heard it all before, repeatedly.
1. “The testing isn’t precise enough.” No, it’s fine for these purposes, which is simply to determine whether some screens don’t emit a buzz.
2. “The testing doesn’t depict what your ears hear.” See above.
3. “Somebody could just cover their mic.” Sure, they could be a jerk. I’m not publishing this study for peer review. It’s a casual message board inquiry - not a scientific study.
4. “Put your phone close enough to any screen and of course it will pick up a buzz.” Nope, our videos specifically include taking the cam directly up to the infotainment screen, and nothing. A well-designed screen does not emit this buzz.
5. “My screen doesn’t buzz if I don’t hear it.” And if a tree falls in the forest…. That’s very zen of you. But no, your screen either buzzes or not. Whether you can hear it is irrelevant. Some of us can hear the buzz, so we want to know if this is truly a “normal operating characteristic” as Ford says.
So many excuses and deflections, and yet not a single silent video. If you don’t want to share a video, you don’t have to participate in this thread.
