If your RealMe 16 vibrates aggressively whenever you receive a call, it can feel jarring and uncomfortable. The phone might shake loudly on a table or feel almost painful in your pocket. This usually happens because of vibration intensity settings, haptic feedback options, or sound profiles that are set too aggressively by default.
Why Call Vibration Feels Too Strong on the RealMe 16
- Vibration intensity is set to the highest level.
- Haptic feedback is enabled for multiple system actions.
- Sound or notification profiles are boosting vibration strength.
- Software changes after updates reset vibration preferences.
- Accessibility or alert settings amplify vibrations unintentionally.
1. Lower the Vibration Intensity
RealMe allows you to control how strong vibrations feel. If this is set too high, incoming calls can feel overly aggressive.
Open Settings, and then tap Sound and vibration.
Tap Vibration intensity, and reduce the level for calls.
2. Adjust Call Vibration Pattern
Some vibration patterns feel stronger than others even at the same intensity. Switching to a softer pattern can significantly reduce how intense calls feel.
Open Settings, and then tap Sound and vibration.
Tap Call vibration pattern, and choose a smoother option.
3. Turn Off Extra Haptic Feedback
System haptics add vibration to taps, gestures, and interactions. When combined with call vibrations, this can make the phone feel constantly aggressive.
Open Settings, and then tap Sound and vibration.
Tap System haptics, and turn them off or lower their intensity.
4. Check Sound and Notification Profiles
Some sound modes boost vibration to ensure alerts are never missed. If your phone is set to an aggressive alert profile, calls may vibrate harder than expected.
Open Settings, and then tap Sound and vibration.
Tap Sound mode, and switch to a balanced or standard profile.
5. Disable Vibration for Alerts You Do Not Need
Multiple vibration triggers can stack together during incoming calls. Reducing unnecessary alerts helps calm the overall vibration behavior.
Open Settings, and then tap Notifications.
Tap Notification vibration, and disable vibrations for less important alerts.
6. Restart the Phone
A restart refreshes sound and vibration services. This can fix vibration bugs that appear after updates or long uptime.
Swipe down from the top of the screen, and then tap the Power icon.
Tap Restart, and wait for the phone to reboot.
Strong call vibration on the RealMe 16 is usually not a hardware issue. Once you fine-tune vibration strength, patterns, and haptic feedback, incoming calls should feel much more comfortable.
FAQs
