Hi, I just got a new iphone 5s. I turned OFF noise cancellation but still seems like my ears feel a bit strange at times. Is it all in my head? (haha) Has anyone compared with it on and off? Does a headset negate that feature? Maybe I'm just not used to any kind of noise cancellation, as I am coming from an older model Blackberry... tempted to go back!

I have noticed it while on speaker and up to my ear. It's been pretty mild-- nothing crazy, but bothersome. Is it something you adjust to??
I was happy there was an option to turn it off.

Thanks!

I have it on and have never thought once about it..I have no issues with it and I'm not sure what issues you might be experiencing..
 
sorry-- ear pressure, popping... it's a known effect of noise cancellation devices, but my question was more about turning off the feature, and if that takes care of it fully.. thanks
