Actually, the problem of legibility of these icons on the BQ is rather due to the low screen resolution and the fact we use scalable icons instead of pixel-perfect icons specifically designed for this size. Regarding your proposal, I have spoken with the visual design team and we are not keen to remove to arches when the volume is low, because the speaker alone would look very unbalanced compared to the other indicators and the spacing between the volume and the battery indicator would be too big. However, for more clarity, we will updated the 'volume zero' indicator to a white speaker with a cross (instead of the actual speaker with arches in 50% opacity).

See the attached image that's a combination of high volume, low volume and muted. The stroke through the muted speaker is very light, almost a one-pixel stroke on the Aquaris E4.5 phone, where the icons are displayed at 26x26 pixels. The volume indication (the two arches on the right of the speaker) seems unnecessary when muted, too, and just add confusion. In the low-volume case the arches seem equally unnecessary, since apart from spotting the arches you need to compare their colour to see "how much" of the indication is active vs. not. Could we not lose the inactive arches altogether?
