Speaker Very Quiet

Hey guys,

When I tried making a call, the speaker at max volume is very quiet and is barely audible. Is that normal or did I receive a defective unit?

Edit: Just compared an identical voicemail between my watch and my phone and I would say the watch's max volume = 6+'s volume at around 50%.

It's definitely audible under a completely silent room at max volume, but it's definitely much quieter than the 6+ at max volume.

I'm concerned how I can hear the caller via the speaker on the go.

Can you guys compare an identical voicemail and play it on your watch and your iPhone 6+ and see if you have a similar finding as me?

I find that the watch's max volume is equivalent to the 6+ at around 50%. Though the watch may appear louder as the sound is clipping more but do pay attention at the intensity of the volume.

It is definitely hard to hear if you're in anything besides a quiet environment...

That being said... for the minuscule size of the watch/speaker what do you expect? Even better are the complaints that you can't play music on it. Seriously?! I guess some of us have different uses/expectations for this watch.

I did this (although I have a 6, not 6 plus) and the volume is maybe 50% of the phone. I think yours is normal.
