A ringtone only teenagers can supposedly hear: The sound is supposed to be too high for people over 20, unless you have “exceptional” hearing. Given I can hear it and my hearing sucks because of years of headphones, I’m a little skeptical (or maybe I’m just paranoid about my hearing). The sample is very annoyingly pitched, though.
that’s freakin’ annoying! who the hell would want to use that as a ringtone?
ed: whoa, easy on the caps & punctuation there mate. almost thought you were a 13 year old for a sec =P
Did you read the article? It’s a stealth ringtone.
Yes, it’s annoying. But the old people cannot hear it.
That and it was originally designed to keep teenagers from loitering in places. I don’t suppose we have any old people around to test it, do we? hui-ai?
;P
What’s wrong with the vibrate function? There’s no way I’m going to hear that in anything but a nearly silent room.
A nearly silent room? Like, say… an exam room? Yeah.
Your ideas intrigue me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
I’m 13 and I barely heard it. It kinda hurt my ears. I’m sticking to the old-fashioned thing.
