How is sound on other end? My current wallet case, people say they can't hear me well.

No problem at all. It also has an audio amplifier which helps when listening to music or using speaker phone.

It sounds great! I feel like the sound is even louder than it would be without the case.

as best as I can tell... no. What I hear when talking to people seems the same with the case or without. People seem to hear me the same too. Can't say with regards to external speakers. I normally hook it up to a small speaker set when playing music. Hope that helps!

No, not that I have noticed. I am pretty sensitive regarding sound, formally being a professional vocalist. Sound is extremely important to me. This was a concern when I ordered the case but from what I have been able to detect, the sound has not been affected on my Galaxy Note 3.

I just got a Galaxy 430, have used it for medium gaming. No significant noise at all.

It is a quality issue. I only use mine for voice and it seems fine for that though the sound board folks had to do some work to dial it in correctly. The biggest difference to me is that I've never been able to get it to fit solidly and comfortably. The boom is much thinner and so wobbles a lot and the earpiece just doesn't bend into shape as easily.Still satisfied with the purchase given the price difference but you really do get what you pay for.

Indeed the sound is muffled. The case looks and feels very nice. The 3 design flaws to the case (earphone opening, Microusb port opening, and the speaker muffling) might be something one can live it. If you like plugging in your phone to your car via aux cord to the headphone jack then you might want to consider another case since it most likely won't fit. HDMI output cord will also not fit.

It's not really an issue, sound is coming from speakers on the front of the case rather than from the bottom when the case is not on.

I have not noticed any change in sound quality. I have not had any comments at all from others about my voice. BUT, my phone was in an Otterbox before this case.

I would say that it is slightly muffled and not as clear as using headphones. I listen to podcasts so high quality sound is not as important as it is with music. I like that it's connected to the bike and don't have to worry about it dropping and it allows me to listen safely

I don't think that the sound is muffled or hard to hear. Actually the Otterbox provides a small "surround" environment for my iPod 4. Thus it very slightly enhances the sound.

I notice very little noise, if any when walking around. Microphonics is an issue though, under abnormal circumstances. Running or fumbling around for something in your pockets for instance. Personally, I've never been annoyed by or have noticed this particular issue under normal circumstances.

It is fair like most laptops. If I wanted to listen to sometime special, I use my Microsoft LifeChat 3000 ear phones. I am hard of hearing so my opinion shouldn't count for much.

Maybe is it just 'my' phone. But I do not find the 'sound' loud enough...even on high volume...and I do not have hearing problems.

Hi Coty, have youtried the speakerphone function? how sensitive the mic is? can you speak like 0.5 m to 1 m from the mic and yet the other side still hear you clearly?

It MAY depend on volume? I hook mine up to my phone with spotify and have it for background music while I cruise, but I can hear if people are coming up behind me, which I want. I have never had mine loud enough to block out surrounding sound. I can hear both with my volume less than half. If you don't want to hear other people around you (which I don't recommend) then use ear buds.
