Are you tired of receiving muffled voice notes that sound like they were recorded from the next room?

According to a viral tech tip, simply holding your phone horizontally instead of vertically when recording supposedly aligns your mouth perfectly with the microphone for clearer audio. But does this "game-changing" hack actually deliver on its promise?

In this myth-busting episode, we put this popular voice note technique to the ultimate test with a real-time, side-by-side comparison. Spoiler alert: We reveal the truth about phone orientation and explain why proper voice projection matters far more than how you hold your device.

Tune in to separate tech fact from fiction and judge for yourself if this widely shared tip deserves a place in your communication toolkit!
