Buzzing Earpiece iPhone Xs

Ștefan, îți recomand sa suni la Apple ca sa ia la cunoștința problema ta, care este una generală, și sa facă un update pentru rezolvare! Eu am sunat deja și le-am scris și pe twitter !

Hi ! We all have to report this directly to apple and so, maybe, they will finally release an update to fix this!!

You will not believe me but if instead of taking the phone with your right hand you take it with the left while you are calling the buzzing disappears. Let me know if this works for you...

replace XS?

No,it's hardwer problem.I changed 3 iphone XS and it was on each one the same and in the end I sold XS and bought iphone X and I do not have those problems anymore.

Had you updated to iOS 12.1 ? I am on 12.0 and I have my second iPhone Xs with the cracking-buzzing issue. So I bought a new iPhone xs, after I saw how annoying was my first’s iPhone xs buzzing speaker ! My second iPhone xs is the same!!! Apple please make an update to resolve this issue that had in the past most iPhone X and iPhone 8!

Ok, I am surprised. I agree that the Facetime is very clear. However, depending on the volume and the type of sound coming from the other end I was still able to recognize the rattle/vibration in the earpiece speaker. I am convinced that the problem is not related to normal phone calls over cellular network.

So I had a call with Apple today. They told me that they got some feedback from development. Development is aware of this issue and taking care of it, since a lot more people have reported it in the meantime. Unfortunately, they do not have a solution yet.

Nevertheless, everyone who as an open case regarding this will be informed by Apple once they have a solution. Of course, it does not solve the issue for now but I am very happy that they are now taking care of it and have realized that there is an actual problem (be it software or hardware related) that affects not only a few people out there.

I upgraded from 7+ to XS first day XS came out. By day two every time I was on a call the other person said there was a crackling or static sound they only heard when I wasn’t talking. There was no specific time into the call or length it would last so I took it in and they said my speakers and mic were broken. I got a new phone and the problem came back again by day 2. I am very excited to hear I am not alone in this one because the store staff was at a loss and that concerned me. I even had someone ask if I really needed to talk on the phone! So the primary thing a phone should be used for isn’t working and I was being told just to not talk....spent 2 days back and forth between my phone carrier and apple store and I really don’t think I can deal with another trip back. Sorry for the rant, but I’ve been waiting awhile for this to be fixed.

Just to update my experience. I was advised by apple support to restore my iPhone and set it up as new and I did that yesterday. Yesterday for a while the phone worked fine. But today again I have the same crackling issue on most calls. I think this is a software issue which apple needs to rectify asap. I hope apple is listening. I am tired of this.

Hy, i am from Germany and i have still the same problem with my Iphone Xs.

I also hab the problem with my iphone X, i have changed it in the Apple Store this summer, but the new one had the same problem.

There is this crakling sound by phone calls and when i hear music in this frequences.

I buy the xs, because i have hoped it will be better, but the same Problem like the X.

Yesterday i get an iphone Xr, it sound clear and with no crackling. But i don‘t want an Xr. I bring it back to Apple next week. I only buy it to check the sound.

I there still someone who have no crackling?

Hi,

unfortunately, no update from my side. I am waiting for a response from Apple (requested dan update two days ago).

Disabling noise cancellation didn't help that much in my case. The buzzing sound is still very present during phone calls. It sounds that the whole earpiece component is vibrating like crazy 😟

I returned my first one and currently looking to see if I should give it another shot. My old iPhone 7 is serving me well, but I waited for this upgrade for such a long time! It seems that every XS and XS max has the same issue, but some people are just insensitive to this crackling sound or they don't use the speaker at all but instead use bluetooth or speaker phone.

Definitely not each has the same issue. There are some batches with the issue, not all. I tried some xs,s in the shop and they were ok. I think that people here have different problems. Those who have only with calls and those with defected speaker (piano riff- no way that only sensitive people hear noise as you can hear it on 1 meter like device is blow off).

Yeah, I had issues with calls. No one could try this at the store as displayed phones are not cellular connected. But at least the ones I’ve tried had the same issue. I don’t think my previous XS had an issue with piano riff though. It mostly happened during the call, and from some other audio sources.
