[Q] Unknown hole ?

[blackfire74]

Hello, I'm sporting N5110 version, no LTE or 3g so it doesn't have a phone functionality. But there is something I don't know what is this for? A little hole above power button. Look like a mic hole, if I get one, at the bottom side next to the right speaker. I'm using gel cover for my Note and there are two holes in it: one for mic (if I get one) and other one above power button. I took a look and I found that there is this tiny hole.
What is it for?

Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 N5110 and the Galaxy Note 8.0 N5120 are almost identical with the only difference that the N5110 is WIFI only and the N5120 supports 3G, LTE & Cellular Network and IMHO Samsung just used the same template for both devices

I know what speaker is, I know what microphone is but what tha hell is speakerphone? What is its purpose?

It doesn't apply to the N5110 "your model"

Well, it seems like it may! Because i have that hole and I don't have a hole for mic on the bottom side. I know whag are you talking abut, that all Note 8's have same chasis, just different features. But it seems like they don't, otherwise I should get prop hole for mic, too, but I haven't.

Anyway, I have it or not, can't you answer my question, which wasn't if I have something or nor but what is speakerphone?

Speakerphone is nothing more then a microphone that allows you to hold the phone a little distance away from your face when in a phone call, this can either be half-duplex "one way" or full-duplex "two way" but since the N5110 is WIFI only this feature is not relevant for the device since it cannot make phone calls, now moving forward.

I do apologize for my ignorance, I took my N5110 out of its case and looked to see if it had a microphone hole located at the bottom and realized that I indeed did not have a microphone there either, so having said that I can only come to the conclusion that the microphone/speakerphone hole on the side located above the power button is the microphone for the N5110 to be used for lets say S-voice, video recordings or Skype.
That is about as good of an explanation I can give

Hoping this was a much better answer

Thst was the best answer!!! I hope all members can answer in such way, then forums will become really helpful.

Still hating when someone complains about interpunction, capital letters and other minor flaws in writing style, making it big dwal but not answerin questions.

I'm glad I could be of a little help but running for president is going a little far if not entirely impossible especially since I am Dutch and not a US citizen nevertheless thank you for the kind words
