I haven't experienced the microphones on the ARM MBP 16", but with its Intel predecessor. And there the microphones are excellent and not drowned by fan noise (assuming of course, you don't run huge compute tasks in the background during the calls, never encountered anyone doing so). I can't imagine the ARM MBP to be more noisy than the Intel one. But specifically: the MB Air doesn't have a fan, so you won't hear fan noise while using it.

Even on the Intel i9 MBP 16" having a call is a huge compute task that will unleash the fans. Regardless of Zoom, Meet or whatever videoconferencing I use.

  That i9 was quite the little heater

  I have the i9 16" and not getting fan noise during calls. But of course, I am not doing much else at that time.
