does the case affect the outgoing volume when speaking to someone on a call

You can't use the phone when in the case, truly the only thing this case is good for is water proofing your device, unfortunately the pictures while the case is on sucks. Hope this helps

Generally yes, if the phone is answered with a wired speaker the sound plays through the speaker. This speaker doesn't have a microphone or answer button so you will have to use the phone to answer, when the phone is answered it should detect that there in not an external mic because the mic contact will be shunted against ground. Most phones will go into a speaker phone mode automatically using the internal microphone with the sensitivity set as speaker phone would be but will play the the audio through the external speaker or headphones.

No, volume down/volume up/pause and the pause works also to accept calls. For the price it's a good acquisition. For a small speaker the sound quality is good, i believe will only find better audio quality in speakers above $150.

I think it's because the case completely seals the phone. You can hear your calls, but sometimes it will be difficult. For example in noisy places. I've never had a problem with callers unable to hear me. The mic (where you speak into) and the speakers at he bottom have a special opening that allows sound in & out but is still sealed. The part you place by your ear is plastic. I think that is why hearing calls can sometimes be iffy.

No because the receiver hole at the bottom is on the wrong side. The case covers the hole and the person on the other end cannot hear you well.

Yes and no. It only effects the sound. You can hear perfectly fine, just in lower volume because it is airtight making it change the way sound waves travel. As far as clarity goes i saw the change is so minute you can hardly tell. Overall worth it if it protects the phone

None,it doesn't work that way all calls go through your Caller ID and Answering Machine.As two other people have commented on this,i couldn't have said it better myself,if you buy it you won't believe the quiet you'll get from it.I'm still very happy with mine,this was a wise investment on my part.

I had this problem. The person on the other end of my call always complained of hearing a delay/echo when speaking. I turned off noise suppression (settings&gt;networks tab&gt;call&gt;noise suppression) and poof, no more complaints. I had had this phone for only a couple days at that point so I'm not sure if it was really something to do with the case, or just something quirky with the phone.

In my opinion it does not affect the sound quality. The case offers perfect protection for this excellent high end Bose component. Every time I bring it to BBQ's at wounderful Zürich-Lake my friends are fascinated cause this case its not available outside the U.S. I would highly recommend. Sacha, Zürich, Switzerland

yes it does as long as your telephone service has caller id on your phone. I love my phone . It is slimline the volume control is in the middle of the front of phone so it isn't that easy to turn the volume down accidentally.

No, it does not. When a call comes in, it'll ring through the speaker. When u answer the call, you can't hear anything. I have a iPhone 6 Plus. Hope that helps.

In my opinion the call quality is fine and I work offshore to where noises can be loud and I have no problem hearing. People on the other end of the line also say that the call doesn't sound muffled on my end. The case is actually quite slim. A lot smaller then an otterbox defender. Doesn't add much bulk at all.

Yes you can but with mine sometimes people on the receiving end of the call say I sound like I'm in a box or can't hear me especially if I try to use the phone on speaker phone. It also seems to effect the phones ability to deal with automatic answer systems it makes it hard to get the computer operator to understand your voice commands. Overall though I like me case since I bought it to protect my phone from drooling kids who think cell phone can swim in bath tubs , dog bowls, and toilets.

Not really. Of course, I was using at the beach so the background noise was considerable. I bought a bluetooth headset to use the phone while in the case.

Yes, the volume actually automatically adjusts back so a safe level (still loud but not dangerous) for users with normal hearing when a captioned call is ended. Your wife will be able to answer the phone with out any danger to hear hearing.

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