Phone Loud-Speaker

I currently have a Nexus 5 and am looking to purchase a S8+. However, I exclusively use loud speaker while calling so; I would like to know, in comparison to the Nexus 5, how loud the "loud-speaker" part of the phone?

The only reason I'm asking is because I had to return the Galaxy S5 because its loud speaker was too quiet.
 
According to gsmarena's review it's a little louder than the N5 speaker, but they also think the S5 is (slightly) louder than the N5, so your experience differs from their tests.
 
I believe it was my HTC Droid Incredible that I was disappointed in as far as volume. Per someone's suggestion on a Forum, I installed the Volume+ App, changed over the setting to use it and that App could have blown my speaker had I ever tried turning it all the way up. There are other volume assist Apps in the Play Store you may want to give a try.
 
Like which ones?, I've tried plenty and none of them really work..the one I had for my s2 was splendid but for s5 nothing seems to amplify the volume..
