The speaker phone works as I would expect it to work on my iphone 7. When I hold the phone away from my ear for a second or two, the speaker comes on and goes off if I replace the phone to my ear.

I don’t agree with the statement that the phone part of the iPhone is the worst part and I would never carry some cheapo flip phone just to make phone calls, this would mean having two cell contracts since I assume these people would still want to have service on the iPhone for texting and so on. I might agree if somebody has physical issues which make it difficult to use the touch screen, but for people who have normal use of their hands I think it’s just practice.

In fact, I know some folks who have a cheap cell phone that they use for calls and they use their iPhone for the other neat stuff you can do.

In my opinion, the iPhone is the worst cell phone I have ever had, but it is a great portable hand-held computer.

I have spoken to Apple and they are aware of the problem but have no solution. It is nerve racking and actually hurts my ear. Is there any possibility of lowering the volume of the speaker phone before it damages the only ear which still has hearing?
