Hi BigDaddyCool,

We regret to hear that you were not satisfied with the headphones. Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. For optimum performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Sound Connect app). Use the Bluetooth device to re-establish the connection. Select HFP or HSP for the profile. You can also check your source device or the app that you are using for mic sensitivity if available.

Thanks again for sharing your review and we hope you will consider Sony for your future purchases.
