The orientation sensor is the accelerometer. You know which side is up because you get 1 g of acceleration downwards. At least on Earth.

- jff 13y agoThat's an interesting thought: what orientation will your screen take in microgravity? Will it stick on the last time it saw ~1 g, or will it flip randomly from one to another, or will it just go with "whatever has the highest acceleration", meaning that pretty much any motion of the phone would change orientation.
