After the first ring on my Xr iPhone the ringing decreases significantly.
Apple TV, iOS 7.0.3
Hey baxjax
You can turn the setting off so that your ringer stays loud even if you lift up the phone.
Go to Settings
Scroll to Face ID & Passcode
Type in your Passcode
Scroll to Attention Aware Features and deselect it
Your volume will remain loud now even if you pick up the phone.
If you pick up the phone and are looking at it while it is ringing, that is by design. The phone is designed so that when the phone "recognizes" that you are looking at it, then the ringing sounds, as well as other notifications will decrease in volume.

Thank you Chris. It was driving me nuts. My wife and I both purchased Xr phones and they both would lower their volume on the ringer. Fixed it!
You're welcome.
Thank you, it has stopped lowering the rings. Ahhh! Sanity.
