How can I improve the sound of a voice call with a Galaxy S23

The Galaxy S23/S23+/S23 Ultra models have three microphone holes for calling and recording. If a case, cover, protective film, etc. is used, it might block one of the microphones. Also, if one of the microphones are blocked with your hand during a call, the sound transmission or recording performance may be affected.

Step 1. Check the location of your device's microphones and air vents.

Galaxy S23/S23+ microphone and air vent locations:

The Galaxy S23/S23+/S23 Ultra models have an air vent groove at the bottom of the device that adjusts the pressure inside and outside the product for waterproofing.

If a case, protective film, etc. is installed or attached to the air vent groove, a noise may be heard from the top and bottom speakers or from the receiver when the device is pressed or the internal pressure changes.

If the temperature is high or low (summer/winter), the difference between the inside and outside pressure increases and if the air passage is blocked, noise may be more noticeable.
