I do this, here's why. Also I'm 23

I don't like getting oils and sweat on my screen. I also don't like putting my dirty screen on my face.

I can still talk to someone and do other stuff on my phone. If I want privacy or I'm in an area where speakerphone would be annoying then fine I'll use it the old way, but generally I have headphones to bridge that gap anyways.

Yeah, I'm with you. Speaker mode is much more comfortable. But I do have some common courtesy while in public though. Nobody needs to be forced to hear your conversation.

You think your fingers don't generate oils/sweat? You can have the phone next to your ear without having it pushing against the side of your head lol Multi-tasking makes sense though.

Not nearly as much as my face that's for sure
