Horrible call quality..do I need to update firmware?

New taco owner. Every time i'm on a phone call and carplay is connected via usb, the person i'm talking to has a hard time hearing me. Has anyone else experienced this and what's the solution? And how exactly is the firmware updated, does it use the phones connection?

 

i get over-the-air updates every now and then. not sure how it works.

fwiw, i've never had any issues with call quality but i have heard of other people with that issue.

 

Bluetooth sucks.

 

I'm connected via usb.

 

Try Bluetooth.

 

I did read another post where bluetooth worked perfectly

Might I recommend AirPods? They’ll change your life.

 

And will unfortunately result in a summons in most states if you wear them while driving.
