Hi

Is anybody else frustrated with the new feature that enables the display when adjusting the volume?

I understand the logic behind warning about high voulme when wearing headphones, but isn't this just silly?

I adjust the voulme several times during any one track and it's getting very annoying, not to mention battery life.
 
I'm not sure what you're talking about. I'm not able to replicate this on my phone. Tried headphones in and out. Screen never came on when I adjusted the volume.
 
When I turn the volume right up the volume indictor goes from white to yellow and then red with the words "high volume". It must be an iPhone 5 feature as my iPhone 4 with iOS 6 didn't do this.

Perhaps this is a european feature??

Edit - it must be as it stops if I switch the "recommended european level" on however the sound is really quiet at Max Volume.
