How's your sound quality and ease of use? Is sound muffled, camera blocked or buttons and inlets fully accessible?

all functions are accessible. The only thing that requires "intervention" in order to use is the ear phone jack. The apple mfi sends an adapter that you have to use in order to plug your ear phones in. The reason for this is the length to get to the jack is longer than the length of the standard ear phone plug. It's not an issue for me because I hardly use my ear phones but if you use yours a lot, this could be annoying to you. Oh and the sound is perfect - nothing is blocked.

Yes! Within the menu settings there is a "Mute" selection of either on or off. When mute is "on" there is absolutely no sound from camera operations.

Thanks for the reply,Does it only mask other people's music if you have music on? Like Bradley I want mostly noise cancelation, not too much worried about music. Thanks again

It doesn't let sound through unless you push the button to activate it. Then the sound from you comes through nice and crisp to the camera speaker. Really nice set.

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 Ihave to turn it off after a while. I would not buy one again.

I very rarely experience any echo or muffling and if I do im 99.9% sure it isnt the case...its my service. The case itself does not block any of the speakers...not the one that rests on your ear or the one that plays media. If you get this case I would suggest getting screen protectors because the screen is exposed. No big deal they are very inexpensive.

The only button I had a hard time with was the silent switch. My main complaint was that 3 people told me that when I talked to them on the phone it was garbled and they couldn't understand me. Because of the waterproof foam that is blocking the mic.

Yes and no. I have had a fine time with normal talking and hearing but when on speaker phone the other person has never been able to hear me despite my continued attempts. also definitely muffles audio if your listening to music without headphones and such.

The sound quality is good. It does not pick up sounds from behind the camera well, as it shouldn't. The sound mics (stereo) zoom forward with optical zoom. There is no external mic input, so you must use the mics on the camera.

It's just a little harder to hear but not completely mute. It's a slightly muffled sound because it's literally sealed shut. It's not meant to be an every day case if this bothers you. It's meant for when you know you will be in or around a body of water or if you have young children who like to play with your phone.

I was told that I sounded muffled when on my cellphone but was able to hear me, anyone else? Is there a "fix" for this?

Nothing was obstructed for my version, but I don't have the 2013. The microphone on the left side is free of obstruction. My version is the one before the 2013.

Thank you for answering this Slush! I wish they had a picture of what this looks like. Is it hard to maneuver with the headphones?

I can hear fine, and the person I'm talking to never seems to have any problems hearing me. There is difficulty when you have the phone on speaker, the person always complains that they can't hear me, but I can hear them fine. So other than the speakerphone part, the hearing isn't a problem. I also tend to use my Bluetooth headphones whenever I can just because it's convenient and it's a little clearer

No. I haven't had any complaints that listeners were having difficulty hearing me. That includes when I use the speaker phone.

Try reinstalling the software. Mine acts that way sometimes. I know the camera price is low end of this type of camera, and I didn't expect a superior audio hardware. Given the fluctuation of the audio quality, I assumed the buzzing issue has more to do with either the camera software or the internet connection or both, more so than the hardware itself (other wise why I get better audio than buzzing sometimes?)
