Microphone not working on iPhone 15 Pro Max

I just bought a iPhone 15 Pro Max, and suddenly I had this problem where the microphone in many apps does not work like in WhatsApp, Snapchat Instagram and other apps, but more importantly, the voice memos app. When I record a video on my iPhone the sound is clear, even when I record a front video, there is no problem with the sound so i ran a test for the three microphones( front, rear, bottom ) they all work great so I don’t understand where is the problem coming from ,especially that the phone is brand new. I just got it like three weeks ago. when making phone calls, it works . Does anyone know how to fix this problem please? I just got it brand new and it’s really frustrating to have this problem. I tried before to back up all my data and to reset my iPhone like a brand new phone but the problem persists ,but normally with the tests i did , It’s not a hardware problem.

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 17

Hey! I had this EXACT same issue. I took it to Apple and found out my left microphone was not working. Thankfully it was

still under warranty so they changed the microphone for me and now it’s working again! But this seems like an issue with a lot of 15s which is ridiculous considering how much they cost. It is 100% the same issue so take it to the store to get it fixed.
