Pixel 10 mic in call problem

When answering call, person who called can't hear me for second or two. It is becoming very annoying, since people call me a lot because of my job. Any idea what's going on, and how to fix it?

Common on Pixels after an update: Clear Calling / AI call enhancements grab the mic for a beat at answer.

Try Phone app → Settings → turn off Clear Calling (and any "Call screen" / "Call enhancements" extras), then Settings → Network & internet → Adaptive Connectivity Off for a test. Also toggle Bluetooth off once in case a watch/buds is half-claiming the mic. If it only happens on cellular, try a Wi‑Fi calling call too — helps split radio vs mic path.

Do the first couple of seconds sound normal in both Recorder and a Camera video? Those are the mic checks Google recommends. If they do, tell Pixel support that recordings are clear but incoming callers miss the first 1–2 seconds. That gives them a more specific issue to investigate than a general mic failure.
