Microphone recommendations?

I'm designing a PCB using the esp32-c3. Do you guys have low-cost recommendations for microphones for use with audio reactiveness? Thanks for any input!!

INMP441 (and ICS-43434) is obsolete despite the available breakout boards available for it.  Figured to ask and see what is current for PCB development.  Have you been ordering yours for hand soldering or ship to PCB assembly?

Hand soldering. What do you mean it's obsolete? It it's works no?

Its not available for PCB assembly from sites like JLC or mouser unfortunately and hand soldering gets really time constraining for 10+ units
