My volume is set as low as it will go and yet notifications are still so loud that sometimes the sound distorts. However, when my phone rings, I can barely hear it.
I have tried a hard restart.
I have done factory reset.
I have turned off “change with buttons”.
My software is up-to-date.
I. Bought. A. New. Phone
And yet, this problem persists
iPhone 12 mini, iOS 14
Open Settings ➔ Sounds & Haptics ➔ Ringer and Alerts : Make sure this is not set to OFF or too Low. Set Change with Buttons to OFF. Below that Make sure that there is a Ringtone selected.
Try the above setting for a few days and see if you like it.

I agree that your post said that Change with Buttons was turned OFF however I wanted to make sure that the Ringer volume level was also adjusted.
You have indicated that your iPhone is new and therefore I recommend that you take advantage of your warranty and have it examined at the Apple Store or at an Authorized Service Center and take advantage of that warranty. If the stores are closed then please contact ➔ Apple Support

...my post literally says that I’ve tried that and it didn’t work. So, any other thoughts?
Since this issue happened on the previous phone, and started after the most recent iOS update, I don’t think it’s specific to this phone, unfortunately.
Notification sound vs Ringer sound
