I have noticed phones with a handset (like the one in the image) have a little cover that resembles something like a cold camera shoe under the bottom of the handset’s top speaker holder. Is there a use for it? It has a line bump in the middle, but it doesn’t go all the way from both sides, it leaves a gap. I have also seem some of them have extra space on the top of the cover, and some don’t.
Right but there isn’t anything that resembles that in the image
Nothing at all like that in the picture, literally the only thing i can think of is the charging contacts on a cordless phone? But then why not post a picture of a cordless phone.
If it’s not “the hook” (as in “phone is off the hook”) then idk what the OP is asking…
I would hazard a guess that
this is just a picture of a “telephone with a handset”, not the specific thing they’re talking about, and
their phone has a removable “hook” that was removed and lost sometime in the past and they’re seeing the slot where it went
