Does anyone else have problems with an echo while phone is in case. People I am talking to can hear it (I can't) it was so annoying I had to stop using the case?

No complaints so far, but I don't spend much time on calls. Mostly use my GS4 for data.

Hello Lori, something is amiss, you should have volume control w/both your phone and the JBL? I played around with mine quite a bit and had no issues with volume??????

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've had Otter Boxes such as this for 3+ years and this particular one for 6 mos. No one has ever mentioned an echo when I talk/talked. Hope this helps.

Yup, I had the same problem. It was bad enough that I returned mine and haven't replaced it yet, since the one person I talk to the most also complained the most about the echo.

I don't take it out of the case. I just open it like a book and talk with the front side facing the back of my ear. To remove the phone from the case to talk probably would be difficult. It is not problematic having it open and at your ear, at least for me.

My phone has a major echo with the cover on. I have to remove the cover to talk on my phone. I am going to get a different cover.

I have never experienced an echo. Love the case. Only "challenge" is taking the phone from the holster with one hand or fitting the phone back into the holster after use.

If you are using with phone and phone is in somd kind of case, its possible that the pin does NOT go all the way in. In that case, you may hear from one of the speakers.

I actually have noticed this as the caller on the other end, and then some other times I don't hear the echo as the caller. I am not sure as to why it happens.. maybe they have both cordless phones on and near each other? Next time I call and I hear the echo I will ask if they have more than one phone on.

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.

I know what you are talking about but that is not related to the case. I do not know the exact cause of it but I believe it to be some type of a connection problem. With or without a case I experience that on both my Iphone and my Galaxy phones. Typically I hang up and redial and it goes away.

Using this case I have no trouble hearing the person I'm talking to nor do they have any trouble hearing me. The only difference is when the phone rings its a little quieter than when out of the case. And playing music with the phones speaker is softer than when out of the case. When I'm playing music I use a small Bluetooth speaker.

Sometimes I hear an echo but I haven't tried taking off the case to see if its the case or the phone. If I were you I would just get an otterbox case. I have never had a problem with an otterbox especially when I would drop it nothing would happen but this case I dropped it & my screen cracked. I was very disappointed with this case!!

I don't get feedback/echo issues on the Jabra 930 headsets. I know traditionally, if you can adjust the volume down, that will sometimes reduce the feedback/echo issues.

Sorry, I just saw this message. Everything seems to work fine, EXCEPT, there is a clicking noise that is constant while you are talking and extremely annoying. However, I do not know if it is the phone I also bought or the Basic Talk. 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 :)
