Does this cover up the 'speaker' so you have to take it off to answer your phone?

No. You can use all functions on your phone with the case on. It even has a pocket over the back speaker that directs the sound to the front and amplifies it.
469574
No, it just goes around the back of the phone. Speaker and microphone should not be obstructed by the case.

Not at all! As a matter of fact, it makes it louder and focuses the sound towards the front. Kind of cool!

No, it does not. The phone works great with the case on it, and the speakerphone works better because the case is designed with a space around the speakerphone that boosts the sound a bit. It's very well designed.

It covers the volume up and down buttons and the top on/off button. the rest are uncovered.

No, the volume controls as well as the silent switch are covered when the case is closed.

There are no flap covering the speakers but there's protection around the speakers and they do not affect the volume or quality. The only "flaps" there are for the charger and head phones spot

You will have to keep it open unless the phone is on speaker. I usually fold the cover back and speak or put it on speaker, since the phone is so big.

Yes it does. I had a thick plastic cover over my phone. It you have a thin cover, then you have no problem but you do have to take it off if it's thick

If you are talking about the Divot at the bottom lip of the case (Below the Back, Home, and Search Buttons) then yes, that so to not cover up the phone microphone. If you ask me it does look a tad cheesy but you need to have some trade offs for such a good case.

Yes, it covers the entire screen, but does not cover the speakers. I have had no problem using the home and back buttons, the phone is still very sensitive to touch.

It does not cover the speakers. The phone fits the case perfect my only issue was the clip that holds the card side doesn't close very tightly so if you have more then 3 cards and some cash it does not want to stay closed. Hope this helps.

Via bluetooth, yes. I have never talked on the phone itself with the cover closed because I open the cover to accept or make a call. It might work fine on speaker... Might have to try that.

The only time I've done was on speakerphone or using bluetooth, I'm sure though that it wouldn't much effect the volume of your call either way.however the cover may accidentally touch a button on your screen if you move and turn the screen on. When I'm using my phone to take calls I fold the cover the other way around and hold it as you would any other phone / case.

i think you are asking whether you have to take the cover off your I Phone in order to put it on the speaker/charger. i have an IPhone 4 and can keep the cover on the phone while it is mounted on the charger. That's one of the reasons i bought a second one of these units to use downstairs. Hope this helps!

The speaker has a tiny light which flashes alongside the power button. In my opinion, this light shouldn't bother you if you point it away from you. If it does bother you, you can easily cover it.

no. just intercom. need to answer the handset and no speaker phone while on intercom.

you can answer the call without opening the flap. it does not affect the sound quality at all.

No it doesn't cover it, maybe just the top edge of sensor but it works fine when I'm on a call.I love this case fits great!

No, I do not have a problem people hearing me when I have the case on. The case does not cover the speakers at the bottom at all.
