Audio is the biggest issue in 3G2 files because most rely on AMR audio, a format built for early mobile networks rather than long-term playback or editing, using heavy compression that preserves only voice-range frequencies to work over unstable 2G and 3G signals, making it fine for calls but unsuitable for modern multimedia; as technology improved and codecs like AAC and Opus emerged with better quality and efficiency, AMR’s relevance faded, and due to telecom-specific standards and licensing l...

Audio becomes the main problem with 3G2 files because they typically depend on AMR, a codec created for old mobile phone networks rather than for reliable editing or playback today, using aggressive compression that keeps only speech-critical frequencies so voice could travel across weak 2G and 3G connections, making it efficient then but poor by modern standards; once newer codecs like AAC and Opus appeared and devices became faster with more storage, AMR’s purpose faded, and licensing plus tel...
