I've noticed my 5s seems to have a lower speaker volume than my 4s, wondering if anyone else feels the same? I keep the volume at halfway & to me it sounds way lower than my 4s at halfway, enough where I have to increase it while watching videos or whatever i'm doing

i'm gonna do a comparison test later today

Perhaps it's the OS and not the phone. I'm assuming your 4s had iOS 6.

The reason that I say this is that after updating to iOS 7, my 4s volume is noticeably lower, including alerts and tones. The alarm volume on iOS7 is a concern.

Agreed. Volume at same level on my 5S in Lexus (BT) and Bose Sound Dock vs iphone 5.

Seems to me my 5s is louder than my 4s at the same volume. Can wake up the whole house in the morning now.
