Yes it is. Quite a bit. I bought 3 of these speakers. I have a Galaxy S4 and the sound is not as good unless you add this speaker to the phone. Hope this helps.

Yes it is significantly louder. It is very small but I use it outside by pool etc. for the price it is a good little speaker

The volume was super low from my iphone5, I got a replacement speaker and it was just as low. I think this speaker is garbage and useless for outdoor use.

It's quite a bit louder, not extremely loud though. I recommend it though. Sounds pretty good. I've gotten many compliments, and you can't beat that price.

I felt the headphone does not reach that level of volume. The max volume is actually decent and not very loud. I tried with iPhone 4, 4s, laptops with different media players. Stating this, I did not feel the sound leakage actually.

To me, the sound quality on both is almost the same (I'm no audiophile). The key differences between the two are more in the physical characteristics. The S5i is supposedly built more rugged and is water resistant. The remote is huge though.

I returned mine due to the following reasons : 1. I have my galaxy s4 on my left holster and while I turn my head, the music will crackle and gets interrupted, 2. Comparing Kokkia with my Samsung HS3000, the stereo present was not there; base and treble sounds like very thin

It does. Same speakers as the iPhone 5/5S, which means they're ok for a hand-held device but sounds much better with headphones or when docked in a proper sound system.

I would say "yes" also...I do not have a direct comparison with the iPhone, but it seems to be comparable to the direct volume of phone or whatever it is plugged into.

It doesn't on the iPhone, but I am sure this s4 one will affect the sound quality without a hole for the speaker.

Im not sure about that specific phone but I have a Samsung galaxy s3, and it sounds terrible also an iphone 4 ans neither of them sounded good at all

I have gound that a lot depends on the device you have it hooked up to. My Samsung S 3 didn't put out much sound. Mynew LG G2is even worse. If i hook it to my laptop it can be heard all over the kitchen i work in. This speaker pushes 2.5 watts. They make one that pushes 4 watts. Youmay want yo try that one for using in a gym or consider stringing a few together. I still love tjis speaker and will buy another.

I'm not familiar with the speakers you mention .. The little iLuv sounds better and is louder than my phone alone .. It's $20 ..

I just tried it in my garage and the sound is very clear when the phone is on speaker and inside the case. Not sure if the sound will be as loud and clear once you're riding outside though.

My friend had an iphone 4 so I really can't say. Sounded really good. You do have to turn you're phone volume up after hooking it up , as the phone turns it down automatically.

It can sound like it is muffled when using the speaker on your iPhone 5s when in lifeproof case, but what I do is that I turn phone around to hear it louder from back of phone or lay it face down as this seems to give the speaker a louder volume for you to hear from.

I'm not sure, I bought one for my work phone, hoping it would amplify the sound. I was not impressed, very disappointed

No. But I can tell you that apple headphones which are packaged with iphone 5 are much much better. The sound is deeper and cleaner, and it isolates the external noise much much better.
