How can I disable the noise canceling or noise reduction on S21+ calls?

Thanks.

Hi, please try the below steps and get back to us with the results.

Settings>>call>> advanced settings.

There you'll see the selection to turn off noise reduction/ suppression.

Hi, Galaxy S21+ Ultra device supports the basic feature to eliminate the surrounding noises during speakerphone call and this feature operates when the talker is away more than a specific range(about 1.5m) from the device.

So if you’re away from the device during the speaker call, some of your speakings may be interrupted to send to others due to this feature. Sound quality through the speaker is optimized within a distance range of about 1.5m. Therefore it’s recommended that you make a call within a near distance from the device for a speaker call.

Hi, Unfortunately, the noise-canceling feature is not available on S21+.

I had an S20 Ultra and now I have an S21 Ultra, both have the same issue and that is very very frustrating. Please fix this issue in the next update. This has to be a top-priority ticket on your board.

I agree. This is a significant feature on which the I-Phone has an edge.

It's incredibly annoying.

I think there is no noise cancelling feature on the phone. Unless you are talking about Active Noise Cancelling on earbuds.

If it is on earbuds, you need to open Galaxy Wearable app and disable Active Noice Cancelling.Screenshot_20210711-141616_Galaxy Buds Live.jpg
