All sound only coming from earpiece

Hello there, so I recently noticed that any and all sounds coming from my iPhone 8 when I play videos, run apps of any sort or just listen to any form of audio, come out exclusively from my ear piece- the one speaker that’s beside the front facing camera-, while the two bottom speakers- the ones to the left and to the right of the power socket- don’t seem to work at all. Therefore I was wondering how I could resolve this issue, if at all- I’ve already tried to balance the audio channels through the accessibility settings btw.

iPhone 8, iOS 13

Hello,

There is only one speaker on the bottom. The other set of holes is for the microphone. In any case, see if this link helps:

If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support

Good luck.
