How much louder is this over the iPhone ringer, any decibel level specification ?

It is considerably louder, however I am dissatisfied with our Renny as it continually hangs the phone up in the middle of calls.

I can't give you a decibel level but it's a lot louder than the iPhone itself.

I don't have a way to test the decibels but I would say it is approximately 30% louder than my iphone6. I feel much better sleeping now and am confident I will wake up for emergency calls.

There is a 3-position "Ringer" switch on the side of the device. The positions are High/Low/Off, so you basically have only two volume levels and "OFF." There is also a 2-position High/Low "Tone Control" switch which may help if you're seeking a volume somewhere mid-range.

I dont know the technical specs but its very loud. I have had two others before this one, and they dont even come close. I use mine outside under our patio with speakers playing music for parties and I can still hear my phone ring very well. Works great.

I can't tell you in decibels, but it is pretty loud. Too loud to operate in the morning when some are still sleeping

I have the same issue with my iPhone 6. Can't get the volume low enough. Reasonably loud for a small room or nothing.

I haven't noticed any difference in volume. iPhone or Galx.s4 seem to opr. the same. BTW, I have had about a dozen ofthese and this is about the best so far

Oh yes, the ringer is as loud as a stock phone. The picture is misleading as there is a screened hole in the lower left of the battery pack, allowing the speaker to work just fine.

yes, volume is adjustable, like most normal phones. Ring is pretty loud as well.

On the contrary I turn up mine to 7 and hear the ring and also the caller at the other end. One needs to eek assistance to find a ring tone that one who is hard of hearing can be happy with. As a matter of fact I use two hearing aids and find the phone admirable

The ringtone does have a loud setting, but I did not find a listening volume adjustment so I'm not sure it would work for someone quite hard of hearing.

I can't say in decibels but loud enough that you cannot use it at full volume. I have no hestitation in recommending it. I have 3 so far for the last 6 years and and I am planning to buy 2 more shortly. Battery last quite a while and sound quality is excellent. Only con is placing on the charging cradle - usually takes more than 1 attempt to get into charging mode.

Not as loud as I would like and no way to make it louder manually. Also, would be happier if ringer volume could be increased. Perhaps if you contact Great Call directly, they could tell you if volume can be increased by them. Otherwise great product.

yes,that is loud enough. when on the phone it self the sound isn't loud enough.

I would say that the ring tone is farly loud, but would also depend on what ring tone you select. as for a ear peace, I have never tried one.Thank you, Dennis F

The speaker volume matches my phone's ringer volume. If I have the speaker on in my home office and my phone is on the other side of the house I will hear one or the other where ever I am. If my phone is in the same room as the speaker I hear the ringer in stereo, but not any louder than either device on its own. I have an iPhone 4S.

Oddly the volume on it seems to only be for when you're talking on the phone but I use mine primarily with an iPhone 5 and it's plenty loud for me and I blast my earholes with a ton of old pink and ninety's hop hop

The ring is a good volume . I am totally deaf and have cochlear implants for hearing. If I can hear it anyone can! Good luck
