is sound affected by 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 - the sound is perfect. I worried about that too and seriously - not an issue. However if you are using your iphone to record a concert then - you get what you ask for. Don't think that is what the phone is intended for.

Yes! We recorded some of a concert we went to concert and when we replayed it, it all came out muffled. We disappointed in this case.

Not at all. I'm a huge fan of the case.Looks sleek. I do take it out of the case if I want the music to be louder.

I found the sound definitely changes but i don't think it's that bad at all. I find that on some of these devices including my phone and iPad i will "cup" the speakers anyway to direct the sound back at me and that's basically what the case does too when flipped over.

What is meant by"sound leakage"? If it revolves around heading sounds from the outside, I'd say it was minimal.

Yes and no. It only effects the sound. You can hear perfectly fine, just in lower volume because it is airtight making it change the way sound waves travel. As far as clarity goes i saw the change is so minute you can hardly tell. Overall worth it if it protects the phone

I haven't experienced any problems with this case. The volume and sound quality haven't been affected as far as I've noticed. I am very pleased wih mine.

Not really. Of course, I was using at the beach so the background noise was considerable. I bought a bluetooth headset to use the phone while in the case.

There are holes for the sound to pass through. I don't have any problems with the sound coming through. This is an awesome case, not bulky and very snug, I love it. Hope this helps. I am very satisfied with this purchase, in fact I now have the same style in two other colors, lol.

It depends on how loud the volume is... but some external sounds are heard.

Don't have that problem with the case. Had read about that problem in reviews before I purchased it, but thankfully it is not an issue, otherwise I would have returned the case. Very happy with case, can you adjust volume settings?

Yes. However, the volume of your ring tone or speakers won't be as loud due to the case coverage.

I have not had a problem with the sound. The sound is adjustable and I keep it on the nightstand - which is close to my head

Not really. It depends if I am listening to podcasts I can sometimes hear it if it is on the ground but I'll move it around and it will go away. With music no.

For the most part. U can adjust the sound but I don't really notice the difference. However it was one of the better purchases I've made. It blocks just enough sound to my daughter to sleep soundly.

Hi JC the sound quality is not affected by the holder and you can be rest assured about that. We finally used some headphones as "The Wheels on the Bus " played repeatedly, did start to create an issue!!!!! I started hearing it in my sleep.

It muffles the noise quite a bit. The clarity of the sound is definitely affected.

I actually feel it sounds louder with the case folded back. Seems to project the sound forwards.
