Z5 Microphone Problem

Hey guys, I recently just purchased the Z5 on Black Friday and starting last night I've been experiencing a problem related to my microphone in that it isn't working. No one can hear me during calls or when you record videos.

I checked to see if there was microphone suppression settings but unfortunately there isn't any.

I want to see if I can fix it first before taking it in just because my old phone broke on Halloween and I went an entire month without a phone up until j got this one and so I'm trying to avoid letting it go.

Thanks in advance.

I also having a same problem with my z5 compact. I bought it on July 2016. On Jan 2017 my z5 compact screen suddently blank and i cant turn it on. I went to the service centre and repair it. They have change it with the new board.

And then a new problem happend. When i calling somebody and people calling me, they cant heard my voice. I already doing diagnostics test but there is no problem found. I ve change my sim card with other the same problem also happpend. I also have done factory reset for twice. But the problem is still there. Z5 compact is not a cheap mobile phone. If i know this situation will be happend i ll not buy this handphone. Sony! Please get alert to your smart phone problems or your customer will not believe on you anymore in the future!

I finally sent mine back for repair under warranty and it had the microphone replaced. Now callers can hear me fine.
