Perform a Restart:
Perhaps things need to refresh.
A. Try Force Restarting your iPhone:
Save any information that need be. Then perform the restart.
Go Here: Force Restart iPhone - Apple Support
B. Try Manually Restarting your iPhone:
Hi theLittles, I went to the genius bar and ran the test which showed the microphone has the issue indeed. I’ve used this iPhone 8 for more than 4 years, maybe it’s a time to say goodbye. Thank you again.

You are welcome.
Notes on Upgrading:
If upgrading, get one that suits your needs (i.e. having enough storage). Just know that it will take a few extra weeks just to get a phone in the mail. This is due to COVID-19, which is making Supply & Demand spike high, as of the date of this reply.
Thanks TheLittles! I’ve restarted twice. Still not working. I used the voice memo to test, only noises can be heard. 😭
