cannot hear caller on iPhone 6 but can hear on speaker

when I dial out or on with an incoming call i can barely hear when the phone is at my ear but the person at the other end can hear me. however it is clearly audible when i put it onto speaker. this happened while it was on iOS 9.0.1. I updated the software to 9.0.2 but the problem still persists.

iPhone 6, iOS 9.0.2

The last thing to try is to restore as NEW - not loading your backup file - to test for a bit to see if something in your backup file is corrupted or one of your apps is affecting the device. If this does not solve the problem, this means that you have a hardware problem and should take the device to your nearest Apple Store Genius Bar (make an appointment first) to have it evaluated for service or replacement.
