PSA: If you use AirPods on a call, please don't use the mic. Set Zoom to use your laptop mic or another external mic. I don't understand how people don't realise a microphone next to your ear if going to sound like shit. The mic needs to be in front of your mouth. Same goes for people with those Bose noise cancelling headphones (or equivalents). The mic is shit. And that's expected given its position.

BTW, the old wired Apple headphones with the cable remote/mic are a decent cheap solution.
