left speaker on bottom of phone as you hold it and doesn’t work. Is this a microphone or speaker? 😝

Yes, as you hold the phone it’s a smaller left speaker I believe on the left side of the phone. The right side has sound coming out of it. The left side does not. Is the left side a speaker or microphone? Thank you.

iPhone 13, iOS 17

Left speaker not working on iPhone 16 Pro Max Is the iPhone 16 pro max has 2 speakers? 4 circles on the left and 6 circles on the right? Because only the right speaker part works for me. I am thinking maybe the left one is a microphone? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

How many speakers are there in iPhone 15 Pro Max? Hello, When I bought the iPhone 15 Pro Max, I had the impression that there were two speakers on the bottom of the phone, but today, as usual, when I accidentally covered the speaker with my finger, I felt sound vibrations only from one speaker on the right side, is the speaker on the left side a microphone in the iPhone 15 Pro Max? Sorry for the stupid question, but it's bothering me. Best Regards. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

iPhone 11 Pro Max audio only plays through ear speaker, not external speakers Audio a music is only coming from the ear piece, not the speaker at the bottom of the phone. When I have a phone call and change it to speaker, it still only comes from the ear piece, just a little but louder [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Along the bottom edge of the iPhone, there is one speaker and one microphone.
