iPhone XR - microphone issue ?

Whilst talking (trying to talk) to apple support they noted that they could hardly hear me. My signal strength is st max. So what else could it be ? Does the iPhone cr have a microphone problem ?

I have a similar problem on my new iPhone XR. While talking on the phone with the phone to my ear and the mic in front of my mouth, people can hear me. If I so much as pivot the lower end of the phone down from my mouth, people can no longer hear me. It works fine when on speaker or using ear buds. Something definitely wrong with the mic fading off if not directly in front of your mouth.
