Imagine meeting the love of your life and then finding out they’re a real living human being.

Plot twist: Dude is actually talking to the top of his phone, not the bottom.

Nerds might catch this joke a little quicker…

Imagine meeting the phone of your dreams and caressing it lovingly and leaking bodily fluids…

As a former iPhone repair technician, I can confirm this is both true and false at the same time. There’s a speaker in the normal position for the ear as well, it all depends whether the user decided to put the phone into loudspeaker mode.

This comment coming from an Android user that’s just as guilty of this at times.

Damn, that reminds me, I should replace my own battery soon. How do you replace human batteries though? 🤔

No no, I mean he’s talking into the top of the phone, perhaps where the loudspeaker microphone might happen to be, totally depends on the model of phone/tablet though.

They got multiple microphones these days, not just the one at the bottom of the phone. Put it in loudspeaker mode and it uses a different microphone away from the bottom speaker.

Any which way, if you turn the phone upside down in portrait orientation, the screen won’t flip 180⁰, because ‘smart’ phones are too stupid to do that.

Edit: My comment is in jest, but at the same time I have to talk into the left side of my tablet, because thats where the main microphone is.
