Go back to my question iPhone User profile for user: sam3009 sam3009 Author User level: Level 1 20 points Speaker holes are dirty The speaker holes on my iPhone are filled with dust and I think it is compromising the loudness of the speaker. What should I do?

Use a toothpick (possibly a plastic one) and/or a soft brush. Gently remove the dirt, lint, etc., using also a good flashlight and... a lot of patience.

I tried that. It did clean the speaker holes to some extent but not completely. But I’ll try again with a bit more patience 😜😜

Thanks

You're most welcome, sam3009.

(I made that procedure a couple of months ago... and it was a hard time, for my patience 😕)

Have a nice day.

Giulio
