The AT&T store I went to yesterday was out of iPhones by the time I got there. BUT... I was able to play around with a demo they had in the store. My main concern about buying an iPhone was how well the phone worked. After my wife and I tried the demo, we walked straight to the counter and ordered two phones. The clerity was crisp and clear. Had no problems hearing or being heard with all the ambient noise in the store (lots of voices and loud music.)
The quality of the headset volume is what prompted us to spend $1,200 on phones.

I'm pretty sure people know how to turn up the volume, that's not the issue.thanks...i thought we had a major situation here...it may be that folks aint turnin up the volume...'pump up the volume-pump up the volume-pump up the volume -dance-dance...'
Even when the volume is turned down below halfway, turning it up all the way barley increases the output.
Mine is just as bad. My old phone was a LG and the speaker phone was amazing. This speaker phone sucks. I'm praying that it's just my phone and it can be fixed.
I'm praying that Apple can release a firmware upgrade, and soon, to allow us to increase both the earphone and speakerphone volumes. I'm thinking that maybe they capped the max volumes in the firmware to save battery life?
why would you have to release a firmware upgrd to increase the call volume/speakerphone call volume...that should be the first thing that wks flawless
This was my first guess too, if that's the case I'm very pissed off. My logic was that speakers require a lot of power, even in car stereos you have big amps to run them. Scale that down, and its' safe to assume a loud speaker may use a lot of power on a cell phone. If they can't fix it, like I said, I'll be returning it.
Not to sound elementary, but do the people who are having problems hearing know that to turn up the headset volume, you must be in a call? Turning it up while you're not on a call just turns up the ringer. I couldn't hear that well at first so I had my gf call me so that I could turn up the headset volume. Works fine now.
