Back your phone up. Log into iTunes from your Mac or PC and do a Restore using iTunes. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes. Log out of iCloud on your phone then do the restore. Mine has been working for 3 days straight.

Me and DJgmoney is the original people who have had the issue and 4 replacements I had one replacement for the charging issue before we know it was a software issue then speaker issue then the video stutter issue on 24p videos if autobrightness is on does anyone else here the video judder stutter issue on even iTunes videos or Netflix videos if autobrightness is on it looks like a frame rate issue there is a thread about it here as well with 500 people or so. And they still have said nothing I took my phone into Apple they said just turn off autobrightness which I did and I keep it off hopefully it wont cause screen burn in I keep it about half way in the middle but to tell customers I have to turn features off to make other features work properly is pretty pathetic on a 2 grand device. Can other people confirm the video judder issue as well. Look up iPhone XS choppy video I will font the thread

Hi Mr DJ_GMONEY

YOU didn’t post for a while ?! How is your last replacement going so far , I’ m On my third replacement and same thing still happening , I’m going to replace it for the 4th time , actually there is no point like u mentioned before of keeping replacing phone , but I will do it out of desperation, they extended the return period here in Australia till the 8th of January for the holidays , thats why im going for a full refubd this time and then buying a brand new one , maybe this will make a difference and make them acknowledge the issue, I doubt it will do anything but this whole situation is getting really frustrating

Plz let us know what going on with your last phone you got from them

Regards

This is serious matter. Apple should solve it sooner. No. 1 brand is going through such kind of problems, its doesn’t seems good. Restarting solves it for a while.. but why?? This is not a sloution. We’re not going to restart our phone 100 time a day. The customer who is paying $1100 product isn’t expecting these kind of problems.. this thing doensn’t make it worth. Please solve it ASAP.
