"Affected devices were manufactured between October 2020 and April 2021."


While Apple has not indicated how many devices this affects, it has told users how to check whether the issue is affecting to their iPhone.


"If your iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 Pro does not emit sound from the receiver when you make or receive calls, it may be eligible for service," says Apple. "Apple or an Apple authorized Service Provider will service eligible devices, free of charge."
