Enquiry regarding iPad Air 5 speaker.
iPad Air 5 contains 2 speaker but has 4 grilles. I only get sound from the bottom 2 grilles. Is this a problem? Or this is how it works? Or the 4 grilles should provide sound

On an iPad Air 5th generation there are only two speakers, not four.
The additional grilles are only a matter of "aesthetics".

To be clear, your iPad physically has one speaker on the top - and one speaker on the bottom. Sound will be heard from both the top and bottom speaker.
When in Landscape orientation, the two physical speakers will produce a left/right stereo pair.
When in Portrait orientation, the left and right stereo channels will be from the top and bottom of the iPad.
Of the four grilles - two on the top edge - and two on the bottom edge - only one of each has a physical speaker.
Don’t be fooled by your iPad Air seemingly having four speaker grilles. Your iPad Air has only two speakers - not four as found in models of iPad Pro.
Recent models of iPad Air have one speaker at top and bottom - such that what viewed in Landscape orientation, you will have a left/right stereo pair.
You can verify and compare iPad specifications here:
As a point of interest, older models of iPad Air had two speakers on the bottom edge of the iPad - one placed either side of the Lightning port. For these models, with the iPad positioned in Landscape orientation, both speakers were to one side of the screen.
No. With the iPad in Portrait/vertical orientation, you will have one speaker on top - and one on the bottom.
That means if I vertically operate my iPad I will get sound from the left side?
No no. I was asking if sound will come out from both of the grilles from top and bottom while using vertically.Or only from one grille of top and one grille of bottom?
