Has anyone noticed that people can't hear them without blu tooth clear? I have a case that is similar and when it's on, people can't hear me clearly.

I have used another similar case that has trouble with me hearing other people when I'm not on bluetooth. This case allows me to hear others clearly and others report they can hear me with or without bluetooth.

I've had no complaints from anyone when using the normal microphone or speakerphone with this case.

I have not had that problem. The Bluetooth is almost always on and nobody has said anything to me about clarity. I the bluetooth in the car, with a headset and it is on when I am not using the car or headset.

By any chance, when you activate it, does it just sound like moderate white noise, but you still hear what's going on outside of the earbuds? Because I have that problem as well, and I too have an Android. The noise-cancellation isn't all that great. If anything, it makes the sound quality worse. Why the noise-cancellation doesn't work well, I don't know. I'll just say the quality of the earbuds isn't the best.

Sadly, this is a common issue. Myself and others have purchased a blue tooth to ensure the other party can hear. When you use a Bluetooth that problem is solved. Sadly, the barriers that are supposed to prevent water from entering seem to prevent people from hearing each other as well. Deems the phone useless for most! Good Luck.

No I haven't. It's a good Bluetooth. The only thing you might experience is that some people can't hear you well. It must be their phone system or their phone, but when I talk to most of my friends, they can hear me very clear. I like it.

Hi Dan... I just had the opportunity to use my headphones and found that they do NOT block the sound as much as I would like. I also noticed there's been a price INCREASE of $9 since I purchased my set! Hope this helps....

Did you ever find one a bluetooth or headset that works? I am having a similar problem. My ears and canals are small, so nothing seems to stay on my ear. I was thinking about trying a bluetooth that has headphones that go over your head or behind your neck, have you tried this type? I agree that they need to make these child size as well!

It can sound like it is muffled when using the speaker on your iPhone 5s when in lifeproof case, but what I do is that I turn phone around to hear it louder from back of phone or lay it face down as this seems to give the speaker a louder volume for you to hear from.

Try entering Setup then press profile + general + personalize + down volume (amount sound).I hope it helps. More, I am selling a Nokia 808 Pureview as new as when I bought, in box. Want to buy? Can you tell me anyone to buy it? It has also screen protector and case.

Yes! Most people cannot even tell they are on the blue tooth, when I am speaking to them.

Asked the wife and she says that everyone hears her just fine. She does talk a little louder than most. Personally I don't like these things, need a phone to my ear.

I've had this case for about 3 and a half months and I haven't had this problem. People can always hear me just fine. My friend has the same case and when we talk on the phone I can hear her fine as well.

Funny you mention it. I've read a few people stating so, not many though. I think people are more worried about hearing others, not others hearing them. However, this is the key feature I'm looking for. I'm trying to replace my Panasonic KX-TG2730, which my Dad can't hear me on at all. I thought he was going deaf, until a house guest called me at work from my phone and I realized it's been my phone the whole time. I have numerous other people asking me to speak up too. I would like this phone, it's got excellent reviews, but I'm going to do a little more research first.

during set up, how was the volume set in your computer/pad/phone? i control the volume in my setup, from my iPad. i believe that i too had that issue, and my son enlightened me. i may also have incorrectly set up the blue tooth. certainly glad my son is patient... because i have only been retired from being a computer programmer for over 30 years, would have hoped that i would have been able to set up a small speaker on my own!

When I am using the headset, those around me did not hear what I was able to hear. I was, however, able to hear others around me. How clearly I heard those around me depended on how high I had the volume on the headset. Hope this helps.

Well max volume on the iphone barely leaks. And more than 2feet away you cant hear it. The isolation imo is satisfactory, with nothing playing, you can still hear your environment, but it's still quite muffled. With sound on forget location awareness the music takes over :)

The sound is fine. People can hear me fine and I can hear them. At first I had problems.. I simply took. My phone out and reinstalled it in the case and it was fine. As for playing music, the sound is a but muffled. You can still hear it but if you want a louder, more clear sound you have to open the charging plug and headphone plug and then sound is loud as usual. Hope this helps.

No one has ever said anything about the voice clarity. I don't think there is any problem. I still think it is the best case out there for the Iphone 5. I also bought one for my Iphone 4 also.
