PUBG Mobile destroys microphone on AirPods?

Some time ago I bought AirPods.

I was using them for a few months.

Then I decided to try them to play PUBG Mobile (before this I was playing with wired EarPods).

After a few times of playing PUBG, microphone stoped working right during the match - after that moment my teammates couldn’t hear me anymore. So I had to switch back to EarPods.

At first, I didn’t understand what happened, thinking that this was another PUBG bug with team communication.

Later on I had a phone call with my AirPods on. And the caller didn’t hear me. Like not when you’re having a bad reception/signal, but he didn’t hear me at all.

That freaked me out a bit.

Right after the call I opened Voice Memos to check the microphone. And all I could hear in the recordings was a faint noise and no signs of actual voice.

I tried other apps for voice recording and the result was the same.

I tried Siri and voice dictation in a keyboard and it didn’t work either.

I tried and connected my AirPods to my friend’s iPhone - microphone didn’t work with it either.

I also tried to reset - all the same.

Mic was obviously dead.

I went to a store where I bought them, and they replaced AirPods with the new ones due to warranty.

I began using my new AirPods, and not having them for gaming.

After a few months I had thoughts that maybe it was a coincidence that microphone died during the game and it’s actually safe to play PUBG using AirPods.

So I started playing PUBG Mobile with AirPods.

And after a few games microphone died right during the PUBG match again!

I was so ****** off.

I can’t replace them this time, because vendor said that warranty doesn’t cover replaced products.

Now I have AirPods which I can’t use for phone calls, voice dictations, Siri.

Probably PUBG has a bad software that burns out hardware of the microphone on AirPods (maybe due to heavy overloading or there are other reasons for that, I don’t know).

Or AirPods have a bad software/hardware in the first place which lead to that cause and it’s not really PUBG fault, although it did damage mic.

So what is it - poor AirPods engineering or poor PUBG engineering?

Whose fault is it?
