Low call alert volume

[don44]

Love this phone except find the ring alert a little low. Not disastrously low, but not quite enough in a noisy environment. Is there anything that can be done about this at all?

Not really anything you can do other than turning the volume up to the maximum 30/30. If that still isn't loud enough then it must be a limitation of the devices loudspeaker not being powerful enough.

Yeah, it's kind of annoying when they put so much emphasis on the 'smart' side while letting down one of the phone 'basics'. I tried recording my own ringtone but it came out softer than the default ones. Still, I can live with it.

Looks like others have been unsatisfied too:
What app can i use to make huawei ascend volume sound louder? - Why is my call volume is too low how do i make it louder on my huawei ascend :: Ask Me Fast

Although not enough to bother that many users, evidently...

Realised I can just plug it into one of these when at home:



Or computer speakers would be even louder :excited: Works for the alarm too, which incidentally seems even lower than the call alert.

The volume isn't really an issue when outside the house, as the phone is on person.
