Is there an opening for the speaker? Can you hear it well when it rings?

(If you look at the second to last image on the slide show and zoom in, you can see how it wraps the corner of the bottom but doesn't cover the whole side.

The case really only wraps around the sides and corners, not top or bottom, so there's nothing covering the speakers.

There is no problem with hearing the phone ring. There is also an option on the phone where you can adjust to having your phone in your purse...rings louder

Yes, there is an opening for the speaker as well as all other components needed like the camera and you can hear it very good. The cover even folds back behind the phone well when taking a call.

Yes. There is a circular finger dial between the speakers to adjust the volume. It is flat with a serrated edge. I find it easy to use.

The Ringer can be put on off, low or high. I just tested it. The phone works very well. Both the speaker and hand held are clear and can be adjusted for volume. It also has a jack for a headset. I would buy again.

Yes. It has a high and low ringer. My phone is upstairs and I can hear it downstairs most of the time.

1) I got a complaint today about muffled voice. May be caller's issue. First time I have heard that. 2) Yes, there is a long slot underneath, accessed on the phone side.

The speaker hole is there but covered by the elastic band in the picture on Amazon. When open, the sound is not blocked in any way by the case.

No, there is an opening at the bottom for the headphones and the charger. Not even a flap to open. Also can control the volume with it on. Just put it on and leave it.

Yes, there is a button on the speaker and you can also use the volume button on your phone

The gumdrop case is custom designed to fit the openings located on your device. There are small flaps that snuggly open and close. I use the audio port a lot for my speakers. Also there are small holes over the internal speakers so you can hear just fine.

It's not covered. There's an opening. It actually sounds great when using the speaker. I've used this cover on my S4 for several months.

The speaker is on the back near the top of the handset. It is a series of tiny holes in the case.

Yes. There is a built in speaker below the buttons. Sound quality is all right for its intended purpose.

There is a ear plug/speaker jack on the top of the case. We have had our case for almost a year and it is wonderful.
