At first I thought it was the case because it had no holes at the bottom, so it was covering the speaker and mic, but even without it there would be an echo. So I took my phone during the week of purchase to T-Mobile and the manager was not helpful at all. He kept telling me it’s normal, it happens sometimes, it’s a network problem, the phone is not defective. But he told me my only options were to send it to Apple or Get a different one with my insurance. He didn’t even try to help, nor touched my phone at all!


The closest Apple store to my town is 2 hrs away, so I took it to the Geek Squad at Best Buy instead. They checked my phone and even though I saw the screen showed “issues found” they said the phone was working properly, but they could send it out to Apple to have it checked and it would take about a week. I work from my phone, so I can’t afford to be without it for a week. It was very frustrating because until this day, there is no solution to this problem online.


I finally visited an Apple Store and thank God the associate knew what he was doing! He took my phone for a few minutes, came back and told me there were no problems with the device, but he had me reset my network settings. IT FIXED THE ISSUE! I can’t believe it was that simple and no one could help me before. I almost purchased a new phone.


It has been months since that day and just a few days ago the echo came back, but it went away by resetting the network settings again.


Before you waste more money on another phone or your time waiting for them to fix your phone, TRY RESETTING YOUR NETWORK SETTINGS.

I just purchased four new iPhone. One IPhone 11 and three IPhone 11 Pro. Three of them are experiencing the echo problems. The fourth one has not been activated yet but will probably have the same problem. The echo happens while on speaker and also during face time calls. There is a serious problem with this and it needs to be addressed immediately. It’s definitely not the case because I don’t have a case on my phone.

@goral123 - I have had the very same issues. Upgraded my entire family of four to iP11’s and we cannot talk on speakers. The echoes are unbearable. Tried same steps with case, etc. and nothing seems to help. I will try the airplane mode solution until someone from Apple addresses issue! This problem makes one of the most used functions of the iPhone I useable!!!

Reading this thread leads me to believe that the main problem is one of sound conduction and less one of sound transmission. Apple needs to widen the wave inversion algorithm to search for an inverted wave injection point at both a delayed interval as well as possible first reflected harmonic. Though better handled in hardware this can be done in software at the expense of cpu and a brief potential slight initial echo. A trivial PID algorithm should converge during the first call. The advice of one theoretical physicist turned machine/deep learning experimentalist.

I, too, am having this issue but it only just started happening. I have tried changing cases, even though I am using the same case as I was when I got the phone and didn’t have the problem. That didn’t fix it, I have tried rebooting the phone, taking it off and putting it back on speaker, and it didn’t fix it. Please fix this problem as this was a very expensive phone.
