iPhone XR lost mobile connection after iOS 15.1 update

My out-of-warranty XR just lost mobile connection after iOS15.1 update. I tried with Apple support and other possible ways, such as turn on and off Airplane mode, still does not work. I went through all the diagnostics both online and offline, I was told that there was no faults. The final conclusion from Apple was that please pay for hardware replacement and the choice is yours. This is absolutely a disappointing experience with Apple considering it is a premium product that pride itself for high quality.

Thank you for the advices. I have tried everything. The fact is that the mobile connection just went off after iOS15.1 upgrade. There is no change in network coverage and no tampering of the phone. After 2 months of back and for with Apple, Apple could not identify the faulty component, just to advise me to go for warranty replacement. This is extremely disappointing experience with Apple.
