So is it the button speaker are you referring too? If so, try playing a song with your music player, while it plays, go to settings> music> volume limit/ in there switch on and off the volume limit, then press the volume button on the side of the iPhone to increase the volume.
In case the volume limit on/off button is grey out, then it means that I have been restricted in restrictions setting otherwise you should be able to trigger the maximum of the iPhone volume there. If it still fail, do a backup of your iPhone and then factory restore it, and before you restore your back up, try playing a song to see it the volume of the speaker is better or not, if still not good, then you might have a defective speaker.
