Loud Mobile Phone Talkers Leads List Of Mobile Etiquette Annoyances

Posted on : Oct 24 2008 | Posted under Wireless Technology |

There are all sorts of annoyances associated with mobile phones, but apparently the biggest one remains the fact that people talking on mobile phones seem so prone to do so loudly, greatly disturbing those around them. A recent study found that loud mobile phone talkers were considered a bigger nuisance than things like answering a phone at the dinner table or having a really annoying ringtone. The company that put on the survey notes that people should remember to move away from noisy areas when on the phone, and should try to find a quieter place to talk. I also wonder if better speakers, to hear who you’re talking to more clearly, combined with adding or improving sidetone (the ability to hear yourself through the phone’s speaker) on mobile phones would go a long way towards decreasing mobile phone yelling.
