Google Pixel 2 mic not working during calls? Try blowing into bottom speaker

Among the several issues still plaguing the Google Pixel 2/2 XL, there's one that causes the phone's microphone to not work in some critical scenarios, like during a call or while using Assistant.

There's a dedicated discussion going on over at Google's Product Forums, and officially, the company is currently in the process of collecting bug reports.

Another user even shared a video confirming the process actually works. You can access the video here. Multiple other users also confirmed the solution works.
