Does anyone know why apple's iphone camera is mounted in the upper corner
of the phone? Just curious if it is possible ,why they did not choose to mount it in the center like a real camera? Any comments insights are greatly appreciated.

I don't know the answer to your question, but I can tell you, having had a HTC with the camera right in the middle of the back, I like it much better on the corner. Its a lot easier to hold with one hand and snap pics

And move the phone's speaker on the front to where?

My other question, what would it matter? I have taken literally hundreds, if not thousands, of pics on my iPhones over the course of a few yrs, and have yet to have any issue aiming the camera where I wanted.
