Abstract
Systems and methods of controlling output volume in mobile devices may include an apparatus having logic to detect a limited power delivery condition of a battery of a mobile platform. The logic may also transmit a hardware alert to an audio controller of the mobile platform in response to the limited power delivery condition, wherein the hardware alert is to instruct the audio controller to conduct a speaker volume reduction to an audible level. In one example, the logic enables the use of one or more high power speakers such as stereo integrated hands free speakers in the mobile device.
