How well can you see your phone screen through the Phubby? Can you answer a call, leaving the phone in place, using the phone speaker?

Yes and no. In bright sun, I have difficulty seeing the face of my phone, but in lower light conditions it's possible. The Phubby doesn't appear to interfere with sound quality, but I prefer to slide the phone out while talking because I feel a little silly talking to my wrist.

It would be possible. But, I keep a cover on my phone for protection. The phubby was just to keep it handy. I quit using it because it was too tight and uncomfortable to wear.

Yes, you can see the screen well enough to answer a call (although not to play Angry Birds), and use the speaker phone.

can see the light on, can see that it's a text or a call, but that's about it. it's not very good really!

I was disappointed with this feature and found that I can't use the phone in the pouch because I really can't see the screen properly.

poorly made, I could barely see the face of my phone, let alone answer a call.

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.

Yes there is a speaker button on the main unit that allows for hands free. There are no speakers on the secondary phone stands thou I believe you can put the handset on speaker but I'm not sure about that as I have not used the phone that way.

The phone rings through the speakers and you pick it up to to talk. You cannot talk with the phone attached. At least not that I've found.

You can still use voice dial if you have that on your phone. The speaker is on the flexsmart. The sound quality is decent as long as you don't have excess noise in the background.

Yes, When I am connected to my phone watching youtube or whatever with the bluetooth feature, I can still hear myself speak, and I can also use the microphone and headset in phone calls. If you dont want to hear yourself while watching a video or whatever, You can just mute the microphone and it goes away.

Yes, you can, but you have to answer phone from touch on screen..then close the case and you can talk and hear fine.

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.

Honestly, I love this thing, but the speaker is horrible. My Galaxy S4 phone is louder and sounds better, which is kind of sad in my opinion. My battery lasts longer than my 12-hour work day with moderate use but not heavy use. Obviously it'll depend on what you're doing. Anything that requires constant screen use is going to severely limit the life of the battery.

NO!! It does not have voice-0ver on speaker phone. That means one cannot talk when the other party is talking while on speaker phone. This is a very big disadvantage, as a lot of conversation is lost.

I have not tried both yet. Good question though. I was only interested in the phone/music functionality while I was riding my bike. Yes to your music pause and answer phone. Music resumes when call is over. Sorry I couldn't help more.

When there is an incoming call and you answer, it will switch to the call and you can hear them but you can't speak back because it does not a speaker to accept audio. Hope that makes sense and helps!

Yes - you speak directly into the handset and you can hear the person on the other end when they speak - just like a regular phone.

Yes you can make calls. It's sort of uncomfortable up against your ear and the sound is a bit muffled

Yes you can. Anything you can do on your phone will be displayed on the screen.

Sure can! Voice is great. Video, well, I've never been able to transmit my face, but can see who I am calling very well.Haven't used it recently.
