Iphone X weak signals

Seems ok today. Like I said, yesterday was a complete nightmare but today I tested both bands in low signal area and seem ok for now. I don’t think it’s a hardware issue. There’s too many complaints about this. I feel it’s our carriers having radio communication erro

I’m with O2 , and I think you’re right. There’s a cell mast near me , which should be giving out a nice signal . But for one reason or another , they just can’t seem to get 4G runnin. This has been going on for weeks!!

Hmm. Strange. Im in a very marginal area but I swear for sure I’m supposed to have much better data than what I’ve been seeing. I will test again at work tomorrow which is 15 miles away from me. That’s the best way to test because I know exactly how every phone behaves. But I did test it before with almost no LTE and was loading everything perfect. Very strange.

Ok..... at work. Um. Something is definitely strange. I’m holding 4 bars of LTE and blasting through everything with zero lag. Netflix, YouTube, amazon movies.... the loading time doesn’t exist. I’ve never seen something blaze so fast before. I know the dead spots here and they no longer exist. I ran a speed test and was blown away by the results. Unfortunately this page won’t let me send a screenshot of speed test but I’m 137 on the down and 34 up!!!!!! How is that even possible when verizons max output is 7-10 mbps???? I’m hitting numbers high as my home network. So yeah, I guess you have to leave the area for a mile and BAM!!!! And also no lte drop either. I have a brand new replacement coming tomorrow but obviously there’s clearly nothing wrong with this. For now.

I’m very very disppointed about iPhone X. I faced with “no service” after I went to low signal area. After I was out from there, my iphone still had no signal all the time. It worked well only after resetting the network. So I went to Apple authorized service provider and I got the new ones for 2 times But same problem still exist with my current iphone. I don‘t know that ’s because of intel chip or not. But another low cost phone have not this problem. I feel I waste my money for iphone X. Apple please solved this problem.

Thank you for that . Really helped 😀

Yes it's about time APPLE acknowledged the fact their Flagship/s are sinking fast .

I for one will be thinking hard on ANDROID next time I renew my contract with O2 .

Apple have really let themselves down badly .

I do not think you are correct. I live in one of the largest cities in North America, Chicago and in an area void of tall buildings. I have also spent hours on the phone with ATT. They have checked maintenance and towers and signal strength. The service is not a problem. It is definitely a problem with the phone itself.

Same problem in Colombia. My iphone x always connect to 3G instead of LTE and the problem is that they charge me more when I'm not connected to LTE. Apple needs to do something to solve the problem. Is a very expensive phone to have this issues...

Unfortunately I have not seen nor do expect any acknowledgment from Apple that a problem even exists with cellular and WiFi coverage with the X. We just are left to get used to the problem and stop complaining.

Worse reception I have ever seen on a iPhone and I have had them all, my wife’s reception on her iPhone 6 Plus S is perfect when I am standing next to her with my X and people can’t hear me because they say I am breaking up, Terrible and I believe Apple will never admit they did something wrong.

Gosh, your story is sobering. Two Xs and a 6s, oof. I'm still going ahead with my plan to get a new X with the Qualcomm modem and probably change to Verizon as ATT had been demonstrably uninterested in improving cell reception in our California semi-rural area. I'm just hoping that with the better (?) modem and Apple waking up to their responsibility to make more reliable products and work on the software. Considering, though, selling this thing and getting a solid 7s. Ugh.

I ‘upgraded’ from a 6s (worked like a charm) to this X. Now I’m strongly considering to sell it and get ....? Is the 8 solid? 7? Which has a solid modem that works well with iOS at present? I’m at a loss what to do. Maybe just wait Apple out for a software fix. One of you guys said the Qualcomm modem is no better than the Intel. This has got to be a wider problem. Is it only being recognized by users with overall spotter cell service or ....?

Same problems. Live in Brooklyn, NY, never had any connectivity issues until I got this iPhone X....Indoors or outdoors during peak during non peak, signal strength usually between 1-3 bars. Never had any Lte or WiFi connectivity issues with my iPhone 6 Plus. Both phone on Verizon network.

Same here. At the Bar of the Geniuses last week, reset to factory for a third time, told to see if problem resolved before a restore of my backup. Nope. Restored my most recent iCloud backup. Same. They offered me a new phone at appointment if all else fails but I'm questioning the utility of changing the phone. Wouldn't want to cause extra cost to Apple! 😉 I dream of having my old 6s back. Such a good phone, even though I really like the new interface of the X, screen, camera, etc.

An Apple Genius Bar technician saved my stuff to iCloud (I don't use iCloud) and did a completely factory reset. Took a long while for everything to restore, and during that period I was replacing the SIM card as he advised and trying various trouble spots.

Nothing at all had changed. My TWO iPhone Xs (an A1905 and an A1865) continue to be unreliable cell phones and unreliable data phones, especially compared to my 6s Plus and my wife's 6.
