call quality

[seang]

i am getting tired of people not being able to understand me on the phone without talking directly into the mic hole.
any one else experiencing this?

I've seen complaints about this but I haven't had any issues

I use a shell case and am not experiencing any issues. My friend has a Droid and has this problem but he doesn't use any kind of case or protector. It seems that it might be a hardware problem in certain phones that were purchased early after the release of the Droid.

i got my phone Dec 21. my wife has one also, and she got hers Dec 29 or so.
we both have this issue.

Yours are newer than mine then. I bought mine on Dec. 11 after the update came out. Must not be a specific issue with the older ones then.

Maybe these defective ones were built on a Friday.

I haven'd had any complaints about my end of the call. I have noticed that the speaker makes the call sound more "digital" than other phones I have owned though.

How's speaker phone?
Have you tried a voice recorder to see if the quality is the same there?
With my phone I can hear my own voice through the phone's earpiece.... can you hear this and does it sound loud and clear to you?

I have no complaints on speaker phone either. I use it frequently and it sounds very clear on my end, and I never get claims of bad quality on the other end. As far as I know, they can't even tell they are on speaker phone.

I have to talk directly into the mic or people cry about not hearing me. I second that digital/fax/modem sound every once in a while??? I knew there was gonna be some mild issues going with this phone near release, but I feel the problems will be fixed over time.
