Based on person stories, sign energy on the iPhone 14 Professional is unreliable and weak, whereas different telephones, reminiscent of final 12 months’s iPhone 13, present no points.
I feel it’s one thing with the brand new iPhones. My sign is normally 1 to 2 bars at dwelling with a 14 professional, however my brother is on my plan with an iPhone 13 and when he is over he has all 4 bars. His 13 additionally will get a lot better speeds on 5G than I do at present. Hopefully it is one thing an iOS replace will repair.
In a prolonged Reddit thread, a person stories that they are experiencing gradual 5G speeds on the iPhone 14 Professional on the Verizon community, with a minimum of 100 different feedback reporting related points.
Is anybody else having main points with their mobile service on the iPhone 14/14 Professional collection? Ever since switching from my iPhone 13 Professional Max, I’ve had nothing however fixed points which embrace:
– Gradual information (at occasions even when proper subsequent to a 5G UW tower)
– Frequent mobile service drops – noticing this occur particularly when the telephone switches on 5G, however even occurs when my telephone is on Wi-Fi calling (that is to the purpose the place I can’t reliably use texting for SMS)
Prospects have reportedly spent hours over the telephone with Verizon buyer help and have but not addressed the difficulty. Some customers have even taken drastic measures to utterly restore their iPhones and check out the newest iOS 16.1 beta, however have to this point been unable to discover a resolution to the difficulty.
Related points for me, additionally in Chicago proper now. Utilizing new iPhone 14 Professional Max. Continuously, the telephone utterly loses sign when switching between LTE and 5G and takes a couple of seconds for it to comeback. By no means had this challenge with my 12 Professional Max that was additionally working iOS 16. I submitted a bug report back to Apple – hoping it is a software program challenge associated to the brand new modems and so they can iron it out.
I dwell in Chicago and have the identical drawback with mobile service drops. Simply switched from an iPhone XS on AT&T to an iPhone 14 Professional on Verizon. I dwell within the South Loop and the cell service retains dropping out continuously to the purpose the place I can not textual content or use sure apps as a result of I maintain dropping a connection. After I’m linked the speeds are nice, I’ve clocked 5GUW downloads at 2.5 Mbps. However each couple of minutes my service retains dropping and reconnecting after 10-15 seconds
I’ve tried resetting community settings and wiping the telephone and establishing as new — nonetheless identical challenge. I’ve even tried one other completely new unit (one other iPhone 14 Professional Max out of the field) the place I am getting the identical challenge — I used to work as a Genius at Apple so I’ve made positive to check out all doable options on my facet 😅
I am having the identical points in nyc. Simply moved from iPhone 13 Professional Max (Verizon) to iPhone 14 Professional Max (Verizon) and seeing vital reception/sign and pace points. Seems like a large step again this improve. Tempted to ship it again to apple and swap to T-Cell
