iPhone 8 Plus Sound Distortion

My iPhone 8 plus is also having sound distortion when I just have music playing and I'm not even touching my phone, as well as when I'm using my phone for texting or even if I'm just using an app like twitter or instagram, however this does not happen when my iphone is connected to a bluetooth speaker or headphones.

I have the Iphone 8 64gb Space Grey and when i play audio i get occasional Popping/Crackling noises coming from the speakers within the phone. Im not sure if its an internal problem or it can be fixed with an update but it is worrying me!

Hey. i think you might wanna take it to the Genius Bar, my 8Plus has the same issues and i tried everything...eventually, apple engineers agreed it was a defect and offered to replace my phone. Unfortunately, they didnt have a replacement in store as at when i went, but they just called me to come pick up a phone this week.. should be going there 2mrw or next. At this point, i dont think an OS update will fix it, I did a DFU, Restore, Update (even to beta) and still nothing. If theres no accidental or warranty void, you should get a replacement phone.

As well as on my iPhone 8 Plus (3rd phone now) I also have the issue (albeit less frequently) on my MacBook Pro (2017). This points to perhaps it being a software issue that they just haven't picked up on even though they supposedly fixed the initial issues identified in September.

Otherwise they've been using dodgy speakers in all their 2017+ devices potentially... 😮

This is the problem right?

https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSBeta/comments/7qjp2k/bugs_iphone_8_plus_pop_sound/?s t=JCG9DWEH&sh=f2ffba0f I post it on Reddit so vote it and more people will know about that

I have bought my iphone 8 a day ago. And I have exactly the same problem. It is really annoying. I also tried the beta version, but nothing changes. Still have the same problem. Is there any apple announcement about this problem? Is it a software problem or hardware problem? As I checked not every iphone 8 has this problem. I am not sure if I should wait for an ios update or take the phone to apple service. :/

If you fight with them enough maybe. I will be fighting to get a replacement and I bought it from Apple, they still denied it. 14 day return policy, they will only replace it if apple workers accept that there is a problem. Worker I delt with denied hearing the issue until I left the genius bar.

I have verified that if I am disconnected from the Wi-Fi network, the loudspeaker poping sound disappear. I often notice that noise when playing memories in the app photos. Has anyone else tried to disconnect the wifi network Iphone 8?

I sent my phone to the apple service today. I am really fed up with waiting for the update. I am not sure if it’s a hardware or software problem. But apple haven’t announced anything about it. So I think the best solution is to send the phone to the service so far. :/ I will keep you posted about their solution.

Mine just started when I updated to iOS 11.2.5 and it’s sounds like a Nokia phone, it sounds very bad and since I’m in Nigeria I can’t get a replacement, I can’t even play music out and watch videos because it sounds very squeaky and muffled at the top... I’m seriously tired.

Having this issu. When I play Bluetooth audio at home from my iPhone 8 on any of several speakers the sound will occasionally sound garbled no matter the range or clear line of sight. Worked great with my iPhone 7.

Err.... I think Najimm is gonna need a replacement. I had this same issue and since i got a replacement unit, its been resolved. I believe this issue is related to specific iPhones with maybe a different Hardware, my guess would be iPhone that were manufactured within a certain period, probably driver incompatibility. if it were genuinely a software problem, it would be across most iPhones at least.

If we compared serial/imei numbers, im pretty sure we will fit into iPhones manufactured within the same week(stock)...two at most.

Anyways, get a replacement unit.. apple probably wont speak about the real problem..bad PR and stuff..

And I’m pretty sure you still have this issue.

Try it again, music and twitter for example and scroll very fast and you will notice it.

Another thing is that every iPhone 8 Plus on the Apple store had this issue, it’s very annoying

This problem can be verified by installing the "Nigth Sky" app. With the background music and click on the names of the stars, pop clipping sounds. I believe that Apple is hiding this problem and does not provide us with a solution.

In the native app photos also happens when playing memories.

It's a shame that this happens in a new terminal.

My iPhone 8 Plus has this problem, too.

The "pop" noise is random. For example, if the "pop" occurred at 1:37 of a song when playing by the loudspeaker, rollback the progress bar, the "pop" will not happen again at 1:37. However, the "pop" will randomly happen later.

In my opinion, this problem may have two reasons. First, software bugs, that will be easy and feasible. Second, defect of electro-magnetic compatibility in the design of the integrated circuits, if so, no solution.
