Check if that mic (small hole close to the rear camera) is dirty.

To clean it use a strong flashlight, a wooden toothpick and a soft brush.

If the issue persists, make an appointment (*) and have your device inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) among this list:--> Apple – Location Selector. After checking it out, they'll give you all the available options.
