iPhone loudspeaker...

irchs

Hello all!



I am posting this to check whether I have a dud speaker in my iPhone. There are two grills on the bottom of the device. When the front of the phone is facing me, if I cover the left one with my thumb, any sound (speakerphone, music, games) is completely stopped. If I cover the right, the sound continues undisturbed.



Is this typical of everyone else's iPhone? Anyone fancy checking for me?



Cheers

Yes, this is normal. The left is the speaker, the right is the mic.

Ah, my bad, the left grill is a speaker, the right is a microphone.



Confirmed by the diagrams on the iPhone page: http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html



Cheers all, hopefully this thread will helps others googling this "issue"
