iPhone 12 Pro Max signal keep switching

I just bought the new iPhone 12 max pro.. and i notice that it keeps changing signal automatic

which is really annoying


cuz i do have a weak 4G signal with 2 bars but it’s still better than 3G full bar signal which my iPhone keep changing to


i want an option to force lock it on 4G or 5G

and not auto switch to the next better signal


please give us the option to choose between 3G only - 4G only - 5G only


5G with one bar signal is much better than 4G with full signal

4G with two bar signal is way better than 3G with full bar


and not leave the choice for the phone to pick one .... Thank you

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14
