Settings

The AMR audio codec supports various bit rates ranging from 4.75 to 12.2 kbit/s with toll quality speech starting at 7.4 kbit/s.
Set the number of audio channels. This setting is most useful when downmixing channels (e.g., from 5.1 to stereo).
Set the sample rate of the audio. Music with a full spectrum (20 Hz — 20 kHz) requires values not lower than 44.1 kHz to achieve transparency. More info can be found on the wiki.

3g2

3G2 (3GPP2 file format) is a multimedia container developed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project 2 for use on CDMA2000 mobile networks. Built on the ISO base media file format (MPEG-4 Part 12), it stores video encoded with H.263 or MPEG-4 Visual alongside audio in AMR, EVRC, or AAC codecs. The specification was first published in December 2003 to provide a standardized way for CDMA-based phones and networks to handle multimedia messaging and video playback. 3G2 files are engineered for extremely low-bandwidth conditions, achieving playable video quality at bit rates as low as 30-60 kbps. This makes the format especially efficient for mobile video capture on devices with limited processing power and storage. The container supports multiple tracks, timed text for subtitles, and embedded metadata. One significant benefit is near-universal compatibility with CDMA handsets from the mid-2000s era, ensuring reliable playback across a wide range of mobile devices. Though newer formats like MP4 have superseded 3G2 for most purposes, it remains useful for working with legacy mobile content and for situations where minimal file size is the primary concern.

amr

AMR (Adaptive Multi-Rate) is a compressed audio format optimized for speech, standardized by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute and adopted as a mandatory codec for GSM and 3G mobile networks. The codec dynamically switches between eight bit rates — from 4.75 to 12.2 kbps — depending on network conditions and background noise levels. When link quality drops, the encoder shifts to a lower rate, trading marginal clarity for transmission reliability. This adaptive mechanism is defined by the 3GPP specifications and represents one of the most widely deployed voice codecs globally, used in billions of mobile calls. The primary advantage is compression efficiency: one minute of AMR audio at 12.2 kbps occupies roughly 90 KB, practical for voice memos, voicemail, and MMS on bandwidth-constrained networks. Another benefit is built-in voice activity detection and comfort noise generation, reducing transmission during silence. While AMR is unsuitable for music due to its narrow bandwidth (300-3400 Hz), it excels at delivering intelligible speech under challenging network conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the benefit of converting 3G2 to AMR?

AMR excels at compressing spoken word at minimal bitrates. Converting 3G2 dialogue to AMR is ideal for voice recordings under strict size limits.

How can I open AMR files?

Open AMR using VLC, AMR Player, and many mobile devices that use AMR for voice recording.

How long does 3G2 to AMR conversion take?

Processing time depends on file size and quality settings. Most clips convert to AMR within a couple of minutes on our cloud servers.

Do I need to install anything?

Nothing to install — everything happens in the browser. Open convertio.tools, upload your 3G2, and receive the AMR without any software setup.

Does converting 3G2 to AMR lose quality?

Quality depends on the bitrate and codec settings you choose. Higher bitrates preserve more detail from the original 3G2 audio track.

Can I batch convert multiple 3G2 files?

You can upload and convert multiple 3G2 files to AMR at the same time. Batch processing runs on our servers so your device stays free.
