Why is the sound quality on my calls so bad? I remove the case &amp; the sound is OK. Loved your case for my 4, this one I'm about to return.

I don't think the case would be the problem. I'm not sure why. I just fold back the card side to the back and the sound is great and makes for nice grip in my hand. Sorry your having problem. Good Luck

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.

Maybe your phones are okay. Mine were not. Many things wrong...rang when nobody was there and so on. So bad that I sent it back to Amazon from whom I had bought it. Big NO to this phone. Don't have it now so can't answer about the non-slip back.

I have not noticed any change in sound quality. I have not had any comments at all from others about my voice. BUT, my phone was in an Otterbox before this case.

I have the same issue with #2. As for the first one, I don't think the ringtone is suppose to come through the headset. I think it has its unique ringtone to alert you of a text message or call. My biggest issue is with #2 because I have to pull over to resume my music.

yes. I had the 4th gen. also but its not very case friendly. I had to take mine off anytime I had to charge it. In the end I primarily use it for speaker purposes. served me more than well the last 5 years.

Incoming and outgoing, the sound quality (fidelity) with this case is quite good. Volume is diminished slightly. Uncheck the Noise Reduction box under Call Settings on your S4 to eliminate any echo on the outgoing side.

Just read the other response and I disagree. Mine is full blast all the time and my phone dies before the speaker

I can't fit any of my headphones into the jack. The case is too thick and the headphone jack can't reach the phone inside. I can't find an auxiliary cable that fits it either. I just bought $300 Bose headphones for conference calls and they do not fit in this case. And you can't take off the case easily (which is good) but now I can't even try to use my new headphones. ANYONE FIND A CABLE THAT FITS OR AN EXTENDER?

The options I see for the ring are simply Hi - Low -Off. I haven't tried to set the quality of the ring sound. (Right now, I'm keeping this phone as a spare, since I like the Plantronics T10 better for most purposes.)

I have had no problem with my phone, sound is great and ringtones work well. Some may experience problems if they have a sub par provider? All providers do not provide the same quality. Hope this helps.

I had a couple pair of S4's and they sounded really great. The S3's aren't as good and the S6's are too bassy. Someone stole my S4's and I am upset about that. I'm thinking about springing for another replacement pair. They matched well throughout my Mastering process in the studio. Someone can steal my S3's. haha

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.

I was disappointed in the quality of sound on both incoming and outgoing calls...and when I would use the cover I was always hitting buttons with my cheek on accident...I have since taken it off and am not using it.:(

I have the opposite. It's too quiet for my Panasonic phone. Haha. In my experience if it's staticky, then the male end is either turning or the jack is getting worn. I have my wire taped onto the side of my phone so it doesn't move. Tacky? Yes. Helpful? Yes. I figure it's the lesser of 2 evils. I'd rather deal with audio issues than hold the phone to my ear for an hour. It's annoying I know, but that's how I got it to work. Wish my audio was too loud. Did you try and lower the handset volume on your phone? Usually there is a disc to press downwards or a side volume button?

Yes I have and still do. I use earbuds but it's still not all that great. There are other issues too, do you have a problem with clarity? The touch screen is not very "touchy"...very frustrating. Battery also gets extremely hot I have to turn it off after a while. I would not buy one again.

Based on my experience, I wouldn't bother trying. When I changed the tone to any tone other than the default tone it wouldn't work ... silence ... missed a lot of calls before i figured it out. Hate to be a downer, but that's just a lousy phone in a lot of ways, I finally got rid of it.
