All you need do is put the top side of the phone on your jaw or any part of your head, and an installed vibration transmitter “Sonic Speaker” will transmit sound through the bone, enabling listening clarity even in noisy places such as a construction area, for example. Originally, this phone was designed for elderly people and others with hearing disabilities. Details [in Japanese] Here.
