I have AirPods Pro (1st Gen) and every time I am on a phone call with these, people on the other side are never able to hear my voice and only hear the background noise. is anyone else facing this?

Hi Sameer_J,

welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community.

Re:  AirPods Pro (1st Gen): "every time I am on a phone call with these, people on the other side are never able to hear my voice"

Am no expert in this area, yet your question surely deserves a response.

Apple support have articles online that may help trouble-shoot :

Eg: You may need to update your iPhone's iOS version to the latest. 

        About iOS 16 Updates - Apple Support (says iOS 16.4.1)

That way the firmware on the AirPods will automatically update also, when paired: About firmware updates for AirPods - Apple Support

You might want to restart the device you are using for phone calls ..

Eg: How to: Restart your iPhone

You might want to check you have not accidentally turned on "Silent" mode or "mute",

and

try experimenting with the volume during a call.

Eg: How to put your iPhone on vibrate, ring, or silent mode - Apple Support

or

While on a call on iPhone – Apple Support 

says:

"Adjust the audio during a call

To change the volume, press the volume buttons on the side of iPhone.

Or

swipe down on the call banner, ....... then

Mute: Tap the mute button."

We are all Apple users, like yourself, in the community, so have no access to the feedback, if any, that Apple receives on this topic. Unless a community member with personal experience of the issue answers, likely no-one here would know.

Troubleshooting the iPhone's Call Volume:

• Volume Output: If you Can't Hear a Person on a Call or Voicemail or if the Sound isn't Clear on your iPhone

• Volume Input: if your Microphone isn’t Working or People Can’t Hear you While you’re on a Call

Yeah my AirPod pros were incredible. When I first bought them now they’re junk.
