PHP read_exif_data and Adjust Orientation

Question

I am using the following code to rotate an uploaded jpeg image if the orientation is off. I am only having problems with images uploaded from iPhones and Android.

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['photo']['tmp_name'], $upload_path . $newfilename)){
            chmod($upload_path . $newfilename, 0755);
            $exif = exif_read_data($upload_path . $newfilename);
            $ort = $exif['IFD0']['Orientation'];
            switch($ort)
            {

                case 3: // 180 rotate left
                    $image->imagerotate($upload_path . $newfilename, 180, -1);
                    break;


                case 6: // 90 rotate right
                    $image->imagerotate($upload_path . $newfilename, -90, -1);
                    break;

                case 8:    // 90 rotate left
                    $image->imagerotate($upload_path . $newfilename, 90, -1);
                    break;
            }
            imagejpeg($image, $upload_path . $newfilename, 100);
            $success_message = 'Photo Successfully Uploaded';
        }else{
            $error_count++;
            $error_message = 'Error: Upload Unsuccessful<br />Please Try Again';
        }

Am I doing something wrong with the way I am reading the EXIF data from the jpeg? It is not rotating the images as it is supposed to.

This is what happens when I run a var_dump($exif);

Based on Daniel's code I wrote a function that simply rotates an image if necessary, without resampling.

GD

function image_fix_orientation(&$image, $filename) {
    $exif = exif_read_data($filename);

    if (!empty($exif['Orientation'])) {
        switch ($exif['Orientation']) {
            case 3:
                $image = imagerotate($image, 180, 0);
                break;

            case 6:
                $image = imagerotate($image, -90, 0);
                break;

            case 8:
                $image = imagerotate($image, 90, 0);
                break;
        }
    }
}

One line version (GD)

function image_fix_orientation(&$image, $filename) {
    $image = imagerotate($image, array_values([0, 0, 0, 180, 0, 0, -90, 0, 90])[@exif_read_data($filename)['Orientation'] ?: 0], 0);
}

ImageMagick

function image_fix_orientation($image) {
    if (method_exists($image, 'getImageProperty')) {
        $orientation = $image->getImageProperty('exif:Orientation');
    } else {
        $filename = $image->getImageFilename();

        if (empty($filename)) {
            $filename = 'data://image/jpeg;base64,' . base64_encode($image->getImageBlob());
        }

        $exif = exif_read_data($filename);
        $orientation = isset($exif['Orientation']) ? $exif['Orientation'] : null;
    }

    if (!empty($orientation)) {
        switch ($orientation) {
            case 3:
                $image->rotateImage('#000000', 180);
                break;

            case 6:
                $image->rotateImage('#000000', 90);
                break;

            case 8:
                $image->rotateImage('#000000', -90);
                break;
        }
    }
}
