How loud is the sound when using for phone calls

Did not use it for phone calls. Did not work. Sent it back and purchased a JBL which works great with the computer and XM radio.

I didn't use it for the calls, but I believe for a call the sound should be okay. But music is no where close to what I expected.

It is considerably louder, however I am dissatisfied with our Renny as it continually hangs the phone up in the middle of calls.

I don't have a way to test the decibels but I would say it is approximately 30% louder than my iphone6. I feel much better sleeping now and am confident I will wake up for emergency calls.

My mother uses the phone and I find it very loud. She also has it connected through her cable system that not only announces who is calling and flashes the name on the television screen if the TV is on- seriously cannot miss a call!

can't tell you. I bought it when my phone went bad, got impatient and ordered another phone, was defective so they gave me the newest model, put this up as a backup phone. I have only cranked it up about 3/4, any louder is too loud and have to turn it down.

The volume is as good as any other. It is a bit better than some. A phone conversation comes out louder than watching a streamed movie from Uverse etc. It is very comfortable to wear. IT calls out who's calling if it's an unblocked number and in your contact list.

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

The phone is dust proof, but as per LOUD ringing...? May be not very, very loud!

Talking on the phone I can hear clearly but I do not know how well they can hear me. So far I haven't had problems. Things like speaker and ringing is quieter(as expected) but I've put mine under water, been around drywall dust and hasn't leaked into the case to the phone

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would say it is somewhere between a 5 and 6. You really couldn't hold a telephone conversation while it is on. It isn't as loud as my dishwasher, but louder than I expected.

Yes. It is about as loud as your average speaker dock which in my experience is a lot louder than my phone. And I have the new HTC One which is pretty loud for a phone.

I'm not sure I would be comfortable making business calls with this device.. It seemed kind of raspy when I was using it. The speaker would definitely be loud, however; the quality wasn't that I would use for an important business call. I used it on the beach, and near the pool.. Fit it's purpose, but not for much else. Hope this helps!

I was too loud for me on the highest setting. My house is not big, 1300 sq. ft., but I would say the ringer is plenty loud. I have one phone in my house and the other in my garage and always hear it.

Not sure if you can turn off ringer? I will say it is not loud at all. Mine even has a red light that flashes when I receive a call. Hope that helps!
