When you use a speakerphone, your voice goes through the phone's speaker and comes back to you. But instead of hearing it directly in your ear like normal, you hear it through the air, like when you talk to someone across the room. This makes your own voice sound deeper or odder, kind of like how your voice sounds different in a bathroom with lots of echoes.
Examples
- You talk to yourself on speakerphone, and you sound like a robot.
- You're in a quiet car and use speakerphone, your voice sounds super loud and weird.
