The rise of personal audio gear, particularly wireless Bluetooth earbuds and headphones that include a built-in microphone, coupled with the increasing popularity of “gamer” headphones with little boom microphones for maximal audio quality, means that quite a few people have better audio gear, they just have to plug it in. I definitely expect that the next generation of laptops is going to have significantly better built-in cameras and microphones, but that’s another discussion entirely. Undoubtedly laptop and computer designers never anticipated we’d spend a year or more on video calls instead of meeting face to face for work, school, and personal entertainment. The sad fact is that most built-in webcam and microphone setups on modern computers are pretty poor or downright crummy. While the most common error I see in Zoom meetings is that people start talking without noticing that they’re still on mute, having the wrong audio source has to be a close second.
