Hi!

First, you should re-try to reset the AirPods using the following method: plugging the AirPods to a wired charger, opening the case and hold for about 15 seconds until the light flashes white. Then try reconnecting the AirPods to the device. For the best experience, you should also update the iPhone to the latest version of iOS. Second, check the microphone settings by going to Settings > Bluetooth > AirPods and making sure the microphone setting is on “automatic”. If this does not work, you might want to contact Apple Support.

Hope this helps!
