iPhone 13 video call issues

I recently purchased an iPhone 13. While there is no issues with my normal calls, my video calls through WhatsApp is of poor quality. The other person complains that my audio is choppy and gets cut in the middle, the voice is very low and sounds far away. I tried connecting to different Wi-Fi networks and also through mobile net. The voice is always low and far away and the audio gets cut intermittently during the call. I also tried video call through Google duo and have same issue. I removed my case and screen guard but nothing has helped with the issue.


I took the mobile to service centre where they tested the mic and found no issue. I am not sure where is the issue is but the video calls are bad. Any advice on the issue?

I have tried the suggestions mentioned but the issue still persists. I have also updated to the latest iOS.


Audio/ Video recorded using voice memo and camera is capturing the sound properly.


When I go on a video call, the audio suddenly starts crackling in the middle of the call.

While the support team says it is a unique problem, it has been widely reported by many people but no one seem to have got a solution so far.

I have reached out to multiple support team but no one knows or understands the issue. With this issue, the iPhone usage itself is very limited. I am unable to take any video calls.


Is there a way to raise this as a serious issue that is affecting many users?
