Play some music or a podcast. Now plug the headphone jack with your finger. I get pretty dramatic difference in sound. I am going to try and find a dummy plug for mine.
It's because the headphone jack and speaker are so close together. Covering the hole just insures all the sound comes out the speaker holes. (two holes next to the camera)
i have the otterbox commuter case and it has a flap that covers the headphone jack. i never listened with it uncovered as i put the case on right after i unboxed the phone! i'll have to check this out.
When I'm listening to music, I put my phone in a bowl, box, or something to act as a "band-pass" speaker enclosure. Helps the bass become more noticeable and focuses the sound.

Niceee, otterbox. Now i know what im gonna get next. XD
When i get home I'm gonna clip the 3.5 plug off of any of my billion broken heaphones and leave them in the phone... xD Not. Itll look like it has an antenna. Lol. Maybe if i get mad enough, ill clip the plug off of my SK Skullcrushes xDDD JK.
But, really, good find. I would've never found that.
