Why has this become a common way to speak to phone? Everyone else hears your whole conversation even when they don't want to.
>>
>>102103164
phones are so heavy it's uncomfortable to hold them up to your ear.
try it yourself
>>
>>102103164
>Everyone else hears your whole conversation
that's the point
>>
>>102103168
its impossible to hear anyone without it being on speaker when outside
>>
>>102103281
press the volume up button
>>
>>102103164
Less radiation to the brain

>>102103164
I have only seen subhumans do this
>>
>>102103164
I have only seen well mannered individuals do this
>>
>>102103369
talking on a phone in public at all is pretty rude, no matter how it is that you hold the device
>>
>>102103281
>>102103294
i think this is the actual reason? i've noticed with my phone that i don't need to put it on speaker to hear it, then i naturally have a call like that without really thinking about it. people are forgetting to turn it down.
>>
>>102103164
Monkey see monkey do.
>>
>>102103383
I disagree a bit. If you keep your voice down and hold it like it's supposed to, then it's at least tolerable. It becomes insufferable when people put the speaker on max volume and yell out loud their personal issues.
>>
>>102103164
My ear hurts and proximity sensors don't work so I often open apps with my ear while on the phone. Main reason is because is more comfortable as he said >>102103168
>>
>>102103164
I do this so I’m not holding an EMF emitter up to my head. But I also tend to not accept phone calls in public and if I do I keep them very brief.
Worthless subhumans have long pointless phone calls while shopping or walking around with their airpods, I look down on them with disgust.
>>
>>102103574
you sound like an autistic retard
>>
brown people love doing this shit in public
>>
>>102103574
you sound like a reasonable and considerate person
>>
>>102104281
I once beat the shit out of the kid who was blasting shitty dubstep in a bus full of wagies who just want to go home in silence because their life sucks.
>>
>>102104500
sheesh, nevermind I guess
>>
>>102103281
because speakers are so fucking narrow and grille holes are like micrometer in diameter they get clogged in no time
>>
>>102103164
talking with phone to your ear heats up your brain matter and slowly cooks your brain over years. people who are on their phone all day can feel the side of their head and it is warm.
>>
>>102105446
alright, call someone, put a cup of water over the speaker and put the thermometer inside the cup, let's cut through bullshit like real grown up men here.
>>
>>102103164
BT wireless earpiece works wonders but people dont use it often
>>
I don't do it in public, but when in private I do. It's just more comfy.
>>
>>102103164
Holding a phone to your ear is idiotic and uncomfortable.
>>
>>102105648
lies.

the other person won't be able to understand you. the mic is too far away from your mouth and bt's profiles for bidirectional audio are stuck in a time two decades ago.
>>
>>102105786

>>102105786
Get headset that is long enough to your mouth and has modern noise cancelling setup with dual microphones.
>>
>>102105813
yeah when people call me on bluetooth headphones it always sounds like crap. sounds like they're calling from an indian call center
>>
>>102103164
You do this when wearing headphones since theres no need to hold the speaker to your ear

The only people that do this are minorities like beaners and nigs.

Nobody holds a phone the White way anymore. It's either the speaker retardation or the bluetooth schizo talking to themselves.

>>
>>102105470
They won't. Because they're full of shit. The 5G vaccine crowd was completely full of shit too, but I bet you'll find "smart" people who still wouldn't hold a mmWave 5G phone up to their head.

I find it hilarious this FUD keeps getting peddled though. A stanky ass old AMPS brick phone or cordless analog 900 MHz home phone would've blasted your head with orders of magnitude more radiation.
>>
>>102105786
Yeah, maybe with bullshit "true wireless" ear buds. I have neckband and "pendant" style BT headphones. Both sound fantastic on the other end. Only one can manage NC as well as my phone's mics can in wind thoughbeiteverfore.

i hate such cunts. worse is:

> walk into store a 3am
> some indian street shitter is mumbling something wearing apple earphones
> trying to get my shit and leave, faggot is mumbling some shit
> i ask are you talking to me?
> "no"
> then who the fuck are you talking to? do you have schizophrenia? are you on the phone or something?
> "err. no"
> hurry the fuck up and get my shit
> oh! tell your street shitter friend on the phone of yours that he's a fucking faggot
> "what?"
> yes. you heard me. i insist: TELL YOUR FRIEND HE'S A FUCKING FAGGOT
> he hears me over the phone
> street shitter starts getting mad
> I tell rajeesh streetshitter if he lies to me again i will crush his skull in. and tell your faggot friend on the phone what i'm going to do to you.
> i insist: tell him!
> his friend hung up on him
just fuck with people. it's far more entertaining.

amps was something like 4w for a car phone. literally not much more advanced or dangerous than a walkie talkie, you dangerously low iq, flea and tick eating primate. did you drop out of school at yr 4 to suck cocks or did you acquire a permanent brain injury?
>>
>>102103164
I think it's some sort of display of confidence and/or social dominance. I don't know what those concepts have to do with the way you hold your phone, but judging from the body language and skin color of the people I see do it, this is my conclusion.
>>

it's nothing of the sort. it's literally brain damage mixed with entitlement.

here's a free valuable tip that you won't learn on your designated shitting street: you're paid to work, not talk to your street shitting friends in india.
>>
>>102103164
I only see niggers doing that.
>>
>>102107935
And how much does a modern smartphone use? It's closer to 1W. Thanks for proving my point, retard. The older phones pushed MORE power and weren't dangerous.
>>
>>102103383
Talking on a phone at all is rude. You should be using IM/SMS/email depending on the situation. Voice transcription is acceptable for the physically impaired.
>>
>>102103281
>>102103164
Smartphones were not made for actually talking on the phone dumbass.
>>
I want everyone to hear me have phonesex with my totally real wife when I'm in public.
>>
>>102105446
There's no way holding a phone next to your ear heats up your brain any more than standing in sunlight.
>>
>>102103164
Text messaging. If you need voice you're even older than boomers.
>>
>>102103164
Third-worldification.
It's going to get worse. The world will become Brazil-South Africa and there's nothing we can do.
>>
>>102108790
The only one I talk to on the regular is my boomer relative who is 75

Otherwise if somebody calls me on the phone instead of texting it better be really fucking urgent or somebody I haven't talked to in months and they want to catch up.
>>
>>102107820
There's only one faggot here, and he makes up shit that never happened

The rare times you can get people who play music out loud in public to consider whether other people might want to hear their music too, they conclude that they must be enriching the lives of everyone around them by playing music. It’s remarkable really, that they actually think they’re doing a good thing by playing music out loud. It’s the perfect illustration of how low-IQ people are genuinely incapable of modeling the minds of others.

Why do phonoids always hold it horizontally like that now?
I don't personally like talking on the phone, but if I have to, I just plug the 3.5mm TRRS jack of my headset into the headphone jack of my phone.

They're not trying to speak into the USB port. The microphone on most phones is located there.

people use their phones to call others? weird! i thought they just used the call feature to locate missing phones in the house.

>>102103164
Modern phones are fucking bricks and they are sweat and grease magnets to the head. I rather use speaker or my ear phones to talk on the phone at this point
