iPhone X no connectivity

iPhone X with 4 bars LTE unable to connect to the internet. Been fighting back and forth since first week of usage, but Apple still believed it is software issue.

I can resolve this only by restarting my phone, flight-mode on & off doesn’t work.

And my reception is worst of all phones. Carrier confirmed their network was fine, new sim card, and tried other carrier sim with no luck.

Does anybody have this issue?


Can’t post video so i snapshot a picture..

If anybody has this issue, just so you know, this is a hardware issue. In the US, there are two models A1901 intel chip and A1865 Qualcomm chip. In comparison of the two, A1865 is far more superior in stability and speed than the weaker intel chip. If you have A1865 model iPhone X you probably never experienced this issue. In addition, A1865 has better reception in low signal areas and is unlikely to have drop calls like the A1901 model. One last significant difference is the refresh rate; when you exit subway or tunnels, the A1865 model gets signal right away but for A1901 you need to switch on/off flight mode or sometimes you must restart your phone in order to refresh cellular network. Overtime your intel chip degrades, then you will need to restart your phone everyday in order to refresh and use cellular network, this does not happen on A1865 model.
