Just took a call on Mom's iPhone, and I have a question: How the HELL do y'all manage to hear anything out of those buggers? It's built in the exact opposite shape to one you can put to your ear, and even when you do manage to maneuver it into the one position where the sound actually can enter your head--getting head crud all over it in the process--the speakers are terrible.

Maybe it's just some sort of disconnect I have with Apple products, but it seems really unwieldy. What gives?

Yeah, the iPhone is actually a terrible phone. Which isn't so important for me, since I despise making calls (and have a headset/headphones for that anyway), but if actually talking to other humans is a thing, I wouldn't recommend it. Every time I've tried to use one by itself I've managed to accidentally hang up a call with my face.

The answer: 'iPhone' is a misnomer. The end!

I think the mistake you're making here is that you're using it as a phone, silly person! It's like a mini-tablet! If you want to actually listen to things on it, you have to plug headphones in.

Speakerphone.

...am I the only person who's going to admit to having no problems with mine? XD I don't get HOW people can hang up with their faces, it disables the touchscreen when there's an active call and a cheek-sized patch of skin contact :P
