iPhone 12 is so slow

I’m having the same issue. Brand new iPhone 12 pro is annoyingly sloooow. I’ve had it for 2 weeks but after 2 days, I put it back in the box and fired up my old iPhone X. It sucks because I waited for the 12 and I was so excited. I wonder if it has anything to do w COVID....maybe after everything beings shut down, it was rushed out. It all comes down to the old mighty dollar after all. I’m gonna try it for a day and if it’s not better, I’ll return it 😟

All good I have found it -

NB if I were to be describing it to someone else I would say"the circular blue icon with letter"i" at the centre"

and of course now your diagram is visible all is clear

thank you

Mine iPhone 12pro is very slow as well. Have done the update, turned it off and on a few times, tried a hard reset. Nothing is helping. My husband has the same phone and his is working fine. Anyone found a solution?

Totally agree ! Really disappointed with my iPhone 12 pro - internet is rubbish compared to my iPhone 11 Pro. Wish I hadn’t upgraded! Nothing wrong with my home internet as housemates phone works fine. Apple need to sort this.

Yes tour phone was just working right out of the box too. Would you expect it to work in an area where there is no cel phone reception? Why would you expect either phone to work where you have terrible WiFi. Apple is not in charge of making sure that your router isn’t too old to deliver the speeds you pay Cox for.

Note if turning off private Wi-Fi makes your browsing faster, it's actually an issue in either your Wi-Fi router or with your ISP.

Nothing inherent to private Wi-Fi will slow down browsing at all.

It's great that it works as a workaround, but essentially it's hiding an issue elsewhere in your infrastructure (or your employer's or whomever provides your Wi-Fi) and may return someday.

My new iPhone 12 pro is slower than my iPhone 7. It’s so annoying when you pay a lot for a newer, “ faster” phone and it takes forever sometimes for an email or news story to open or waiting for more news to upload. This was not an issue with my 7. The battery also does not last as long as it should. Doing a zoom meeting with family worked much better with the 7 than the new 12. The phone is less than a month old. Solutions?

I agree, I have the 12 pro and my 11 and x before that were both great. This one is horrible I wish I could return it. Not sure if it was the pandemic and they had low staffing or what but whatever they did this time around has got me itching to switch away from apple phones. I’ve already swapped out my MacBook Pro for a pc and loving It.

hello, lately I’ve been have many issues with my new iPhone 12 Pro! My business is all on my phone. I’ve had dial- up Thats much faster then having this phone. I thought it was my wifi but it’s the iPhone 12 Pro! PLEASE fix this issue or i’m switching back to anything else but Apple!

My new iPhone 12 promax is really slow on the Internet I’ve tried turning off the wireless And going on 4G this doesn’t seem to solve the problem Eva. I’ve done a speed test at home on my Wi-Fi and all is good can you help can anyone help help

Same here ! I’m so disappointed. My son and daughter-in-law bought me the iPhone 12 Pro. My last phones were all the latest galaxies and after selling my galaxy s20 ultra I got a google pixel 3a to try and so far that $300 google pixel blows this thousand dollar iPhone away . I obviously would never tell my children that. My whole family has iPhones and I thought iMessage would be magical but ...not! It’s just so disappointing for my first iPhone . The google pixel 3a is faster with a much brighter screen i, super light weight and it takes way better pictures !!!!!! I hope apple fixes this issue . Right now this iPhone 12 is dull. I’m gonna tough it out for 2 years but after that I’m going back to google if it’s not resolved !

Oh god. Please someone tell me how to stop getting these emails. The whole thing is solved but it never ends. My wife loves her phone, it’s super fast, you are all going to need to take some personal responsibility and read the thread.

So, what do you think it is? AppleCare has been working on it for over a month. They reset it, changed settings, reset the network, nothing works. When I run a speed test I’m getting anywhere from 50 - 112 MBs at the same exact time in the same exact location as I’m trying to stream something and can’t. Apple has thrown up their hands.
