Echo free cases

---

I've seen some threads about SR users reporting echo when using a case. I'm looking for something that provides good protection, but is echo free, and ideas?

You'll need to find a case where "both" mic holes (top and bottom) are larger than those on the phone itself. Too many of these cases have tiny holes and thus if not "perfectly" aligned will block all or part of the mic.

If I have to, I can enlarge the holes, slightly.

That is exactly what i dod

Will this cause you to hear an echo of your OWN voice or the voice of the person you are talking to? I ask because my girlfriend just got an iPhone 4s and has an Otterbox Defender case on it and has been complaining of an echo.

The echo I experienced with the SGP Neo Hybrid and some others with the Otterbox were such that when I would talk to someone (my end would be loud and clear), while they would report hearing an echo when they spoke. I removed my case and no more echo.

I'm now running the Seidio case with no problems.

+1 for the Seido cases, all of the Mic holes line up and are larger than the ones on the phone its self. I am constantly on speakerphone stranded on conference calls at work and never get any complaints. (I switch between the Active and Surface Cases depending on where I am going that day.)

not gonna say it...not gonna say it...not gonna say it...



no but seriously, the diztronic cases on amazon are outstanding. no echo problems at all. fits like a glove.

I have the casemate pop case and there is no echo. I like it better than the otterbox commuter.

I'll be buying a Seido or Casemate, later this week.
