So now, you might want to know: whatโ€™s its purpose? The โ€œtiny holeโ€ is known as the โ€œNoise Cancelling Microphoneโ€, and basically does what it says it does โ€“ it filters away the noise in your surroundings, and helps you achieve an optimum voice call experience.

So thanks to that seemingly-useless tiny hole, whoever youโ€™re talking to on the phone can hear you clearly. If youโ€™re a techie (or just really, really love your iPhone), this video is a must-watch. But if youโ€™re lazy, Appleโ€™s Phillip Schiller explains in it that the iPhone 5 and above models are equipped with three microphones.

The ones on the top and bottom are responsible for clearer sound. So when youโ€™re blasting the latest Taylor Swift hit in the car, you know which hole(s) to thank.
