iPhone 11 speakerphone cutting out

That worked for me a little while but it is no longer working. It seems whatever is wrong is degrading. I'm trying to get refunded for the iPhone 11 Pro Max phones we bought. Excuse after excuse they are refusing. I think they are dragging it out to get past some no refund date.

That's not a resolution actually. That is a work around. The reason I personally use the speakerphone is to better hear. Turning down the volume for me is counterproductive.

Today I got a response from their support saying "I am sorry you are still having the issue with your iPhone.  You can submit feedback on Apple products at apple.com/feedback". That site states, "We cannot respond to you personally, but please know that your message has been received and will be reviewed by the iPhone Team. If we need to follow up with you on your ideas for improving the iPhone, we will contact you directly." It seems to me they have no intention on resolving this defect.

Note: My oldest son never had issues with his iPhones. He just got the iPhone 12. Boom, he has the same defect as well now.

Absolutely. You'd expect more from a company as large as Apple in supporting their products. That means more to me than a defective product. Defects happen. You fix them, replace them, or refund them. The fact Apple is not doing any of those is astounding and says volumes about the company.

Has anyone else noticed their phone unable to connect to Amazon, etc, if there are only 1 or 2 bars? It just never finishes loading unless it has 3 or 4 bars. There is so much wrong with iPhones. My androids never had so many issues.

I am so having the same problem. My phone company will not exchange my phone even though it’s not even 3 months old. It is very frustrating. Mine does it when I’m not on speaker also. Has anyone come up with an answer to the problem

If you do the reset, please post back and let us know if that resolved it, I’ll try that with our phones also if you have success.

Funny how no one from apple is replying on this thread, yet other posts get replied to right away. Seems like a problem they are aware of and don’t want to take responsibility for.

When I first posted here, it has about 400 something me too’s with the original post, now it’s getting close to 800.

if this doesn’t get resolved, both my wife and I will be switching over to a new platform when it’s time to upgrade..

We ended up switching to an iPhone 12 Pro due to this and no more issues.

We switched service to T-Mobile and they gave us a $830 credit for each iPhone 11 Pro. In total it cost us $400 to switch 2 phones since we just got the 11 Pros’ but it’s worth it. I can speak on speakerphone all the time on the 12 Pro even with my case on!

I keep sending emails to their agents whom said they would call me back. This must be the 6 or so agent that has had my case. They are just not returning calls. They obviously have no intention of addressing this issue or even honoring the Apple care we already paid for.

Same issue is occurring on my brand new 12 Pro Max. I found this thread by searching “12 Pro Max speaker phone cutting out”. Pretty disappointing to see how far it goes back and realize that not only has Apple not been able to fix it on 11s, but they have the same issue on their new flag ship model. Boo Apple!

I literally can’t have a conversation with anyone while using my iPhone.  For over a year I’ve had to deal with this in addition to 2 chronic lung conditions, amid covid19 Etc 

 This has made existing even more unbearable for me. I don’t have another device. Nor do I have the extra money to waste on another glitchy device. It’d be nice ifI had something I COULD ever rely on. This of the only way I have of communicating with ANo pop YONE, kids, boss, family, doctors, ANYONE. I paid over $1,000 for this device to add dress up or h to stress me out. I got ripped off. Wouldn’t be the first time. Feel free to reprimand me for ranting, frankly I don’t even care. You also ripped me off on three different Apple TV’s, you scored another unhappy customer.. Toggling the noise cancellation only helped a few times, back when.

Any solution to this? My boyfriends phone (iPhone 11pro max) has this issue. I can not hear most of what is said when he has me on speaker. But if he has headphones on or is on the actual phone, it’s no issue. It’s beyond frustrating.

Gee, thanks for the useless advice there, Tips.

Here’s some for you, before chirping in to offer a solution that a few hundred people have already pointed out doesn’t do anything, maybe do some research into the issue first?

WTF, jus tried doing the mute suggestion when both I and my wife were talking to each other both using speakerphone.

Doing this recreates the problem exactly.

So now what, are they still gonna deny there is no problem?

I guess the only way to prove this since they don’t listen/care here, is to go to an apple store, get two employees, take one with you out of the store, and call the other guy iPhone to iPhone over speaker, and show them that this is they way to recreate the problem, and what are they gonna do about it now?

Hello! This happens with the iPhone 12 Pro and pro max as well!

My mother has an 11 pro max, and she has this problem, she only has use of her right hand, so she uses speaker a lot, but it is near impossible with this malfunction. It is very hard for her to do practically anything while she is on the phone now, because she cannot use speaker. PLEASE FIX!

I thought maybe it was just here phone, but I upgraded from an X to a 12 pro a couple days ago, and so did my dad… we now all have the same problem. Very disappointed in this.

Yes! Loved my X. My daughter and I have the 12 Pro. We have to hang up and call people and each other back constantly while using speaker! So frustrating. So annoying. So glad to hear I’m not freakin crazy!
