Why does the Xiaomi 15's earpiece leak sound during calls?

The Xiaomi 15 stereo system features a combined earpiece speaker, where the top speaker serves both as the loudspeaker and earpiece. To ensure speaker performance, the design includes a longer narrow slit. As a result, some sound can leak through the slit beyond the ear area. During calibration, the volume of the earpiece has been adjusted to minimize sound leakage while meeting the loudness standards. You can reduce the leakage by lowering the volume during earpiece mode calls.
