I've always had my iPhone volume on max (alerts, keyboard clicks, rings, and other system sounds). But ever since installing iOS 12 beta, the usual 100% volume sounds much much louder, about 500% louder. It's actually so loud that my next-door neighbor started hearing my iPhone. What the hell happened?? Am I the only one?
 
I've always had mine on mute, so honestly hard to really compare to how it used to be, but I don't think mine is louder. I would find it very unlikely if my neighbour could hear this for sure. I mean, I don't think I'd be able to hear it in the next room with the door open.
 
I always had mine turned all the way up as well, and noticed on the iPhone X, with it turned all the way up, it’s much louder. Our neighbors next door to us (we live in an apartment) can hear my phone when it rings.
 
I wish my iPhone X on iOS 12 was this loud lol. Hard of hearing and it's nice to have a little extra now and then. I don't need it screaming, just a little extra.

To answer the question, no. Noticed no change in volume.
