Secondly, I’m asking you as a 25 year old, rather than a birthday-haver, if that’s okay?
Do you ever hold your telephone in front of you, like a butler carrying a silver platter, and shout at it from a distance, then when it’s the other person’s turn to speak, move the phone and hold it sideways, so it sticks out horizontally from your ear?
If so, why?
Why don’t you just hold it like a telephone, where the microphone is near your mouth and the speaker is near your ear and speak at a normal volume?
If you don’t do this yourself, do you know other people who do, and why they do it?
I have seen some older people do this too, but it seems quite heavily skewed towards younger people, and of that, particularly iPhone users.
Firstly, I hope you have a nice birthday!

Sometimes I do yes
I do it because speaker phone is more comfortable. When I hold it up to my ear for too long I start sweating and it’s sometimes too loud.
Uhh I do that sometimes but only in short calls
Also not an IPhone user.
