I have had my phone now for a week and generally it's ok but for one slight problem..making calls. People can't hear me when I make or receive calls, they complain the sound is muffled or I sound distant. I have full signal, I'm not obscuring the microphone and it happens indoors or outdoors. I have resorted to using the headset for making calls which is good but not practical all the time.I will be retutning the phone the next chance I get for a replacement. Also the sound from video player recordings is very low. Has anyone else encountered these or any other problems with this phone?

My call sound seem good, as for the sound from video player, you can use the volume buttons(on the side of the phone) to turn it up.
one thing i dont like is that the Bluetooth has to be on to transfer sound to my BT ear piece. my old P800 had an auto function which turned it on automatically.
you might be better getting it replaced under warrenty if it doesnt sound right

Sounds like a microphone malfunction.
Just get a replacement.

Or speak in a very loud voice.

Thanks for the replies folks.
My S700 has now this morning officially died! I was trying to look at pictures on my memory stick but got the message 'insert memory stick or save to phone'. The stick was in so I removed and reinserted it but still got no joy so I switched off the phone. That was it, the phone will not now turn on. I have tried charging it but the phone has no charging light and still cannot be switched on. I have spoken to O2 and a new phone should be on the way tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have better luck with the replacement.

I had a similar problem the other day in that I couldn't turn my S700 on; attempts to charge it also failed. I removed the battery and then replaced it and it is now working fine.

In most of the cases removing and reinserting the battery does the job

Cheers guys It worked! but forgot to say that was one of the first things I tried. The only difference was I cleaned the points on the battery this time.
Anyway it should'nt be doinng that and I've still got the call making problem so it's still going back tomorrow.

Hi
I have a new s700i and I have experienced both the muffled microphone and the won't-start problem, I also have a doesn't-receive-sms's problem (they can only be downloaded by power cycling the phone).
Did you get a new phone? and if so, is it better?
