If only there were a way to speak via wireless headset...

Right, Bluetooth is, of course, the answer to this, rather than
holding the tablet to the head, as this silly image depicts.
Certainly, a tablet, that can connect to a Bluetooth device, would
function as a type of phone, if one put one's mind to using it as
such.

Easy to do with an iPad.
But if someone wants to talk into a tablet that way... what are they hurting?

I would just point out, though, that just because something is *possible*, it does not automatically indicate using it that
particular way, one should have a logical, rational basis for what
they do with tech.

Oh, hey, I'm fine with these people finding some great achievement, in
using tech to the Nth degree, I certainly have my ways of utilizing
it, in my middle age, I have a Galaxy S21 phone, and my killer, self- assembled Win11 computer, I'm 46, but keeping up with the times. I

Those doing this hold in front and use ist very relaxed.

The set-up procedure is straight-forward. It's nothing new.

The photo is possibly a setup.
In the tablets I know, the speakers are not in that position. Nor the
mike. And the people I have actually seen using a phone as a tablet,
used it in hands free mode, not to the ear. Or with headphones.

You might want a private conversation and not have headphones with you.

Then you are in bad luck, as the tablet doesn't have a speaker suited to place near your ear,
and probably doesn't have the hardware to detect
the proximity of your face, in order to switch to that mode as phones
do.
Quite probably your ear could press buttons on it.
It is simply not designed for that.

My picture says otherwise.

Never seen the point of that.

Only if you are in the habit of mashing your face against a phone.

No, it doesn't. It is just someone posing as if he is using a tablet for phoning.

He is touching the tablet with his hear. Everybody does.
It is simply not designed for that.
