I know this is an earlier thread, but I can’t find anything online about it. A friend of mine uses a bluetooth phone in his ear. Every sound he makes, like running the water or wadding-up a piece of paper is tremendously magnified. As the recipient, the discomfort to my ear is excruciating. Would you know if other recipients of bluetooth calls have this experience? Thanks.
I'm a low-tech kind of guy and while I carry an i-phone and use it I use virtually none of the applications, haven't bother yet to sync it with my vehicle phone capabilities, etc.
I did google the subject("bluetooth phones noisy background") and it appears your plight is a common one.
These are all retail listings that I will paste below but as you can see the feedback and background noise issue is mentioned in almost all of them.
I think your friend might need a newer model bluetooth or perhaps some noise-suppression ad-ons.
Good luck!
