Interesting. I've known for years that I favor my left ear (like

phone on left) and am less sensitive in my left ear (don't like

trigger person sitting on my right).

I had a bad ear infection in my right ear when I was 14 (years after

4s developed); so bad that my teeth didn't meet because of the

swelling, so I thought that was why my right ear seems so weird. Also

used to get fluid in my right ear a lot which caused an irritable

vibration when I would speak.

Anyway, don't actually remember the details about my ears before I

had the ear infection.

Has anyone else noticed significant differences in their ears ?

Yes, my left ear has always been more dominant than my right. I had

ear infections as a child and have fluid in my right ear causing me

not to be able to hear as well out of that side. It's kind of like I'm

plugging my ear with my finger. I've always been thankful for it

because with my 4S I can tune more things out when someone sits on my

right. It'd be interesting to know if more people with 4S favor one

side. Anyone?

Same here. Sometimes my body quivers from some non offending sounds

because of the presence of the sound my body feels.

suprizing to me at all. I often hear noises like they're going right

through me. It actually feels like a bodily violation.
