iPhone 8 Plus - Poor reception and broken up audio on telephone
Brand new 8+. The second one as the 1st did exactly the same and was unusable.
went back to older iphone7.
Use sim from each carrier. Worked fine on any other phones, but not the 8+.
Being the second new phone in a year, both brand new 8+, I know it is more than chance.
Looking on the internet now, I see that I have not been alone.
My Research shows that it is likely a flexible cable internal that is either bad at the time installed or it is installed poorly. No recall ?
So, if any have bought an older new phone with no warranty, you are going to have to find a local repair shop.
For me, loosing a phone for even a few days is like a death sentence. And they want me to use it as a wallet?
So, I am a bit reluctant to buy the latest and greatest anymore that seem to be more prone to issues and I can't be without a phone. I can care less about apps.
Spend more time servicing the phone than it services me.
More money/time updating computer apps ios and leaves me with little to no bandwidth for myself.
Dumbphone and laptop/tablet may be in my future. Or just a laptop with VOIP and blutooth headset.
You need to issue a recall !
