Unhappy [Q] Poor Call Quality on the Note!?

I recently read a review of the Galaxy Note by Ray S. on www.PhoneArena.com and he rates the phone a 7 out of ten and says it has poor call quality bad ear speaker and poor mic wich was very upsetting to me as I was looking to purchase one would like to know any thoughts on this from people who actually own and use this phone

I have the same question, is the in ear call volume loud enough or is it muted like on SGS 2? Did Samsung bother to put somewhat better internal speakers into this flagship phone? Can anybody honestly compare the call sound quality? I am NOT interested in music player volume quality. Thank you guys...

I have been using the Note for a couple of days now and audio quality during calls is sufficient but not great. No deal breaker for me though.

Call clarity and call loudness are 2 seperate things. Is it that its not loud but clear or vice versa. Please reply ???

I find the call quality far better than any other phone I've had including SG2, Captivate and Motorola Atrix. I had to turn the volume down. It was too loud. Whoever I'm listening to comes through crisp and clear. They have no difficulty hearing me either.

More note owners please confirm this, otherwise it would definately be a dealbraker for me.

I've found call quality to be both loud enough and extremely clear. No issues at all.

So far i would have to say the call quality is great and far better than the HTC sensation i was using. Also the actual volume available is very good with no background noise. As i think someone else mentioned i found i had to turn it down as it was a little to loud on the standard setting.
