Here's the thing:-

What matters to everyone apart from obsessive weirdo's on the spectrum like yourself is what they actually experience day to day themselves. No one else cares about "test" results if it it works in the real world.

I've had iphones since the 3G (just because I like them) and never had any reception, signal, overheating or anything else that would cause me to lose faith in the brand. It works for me and therefore I'm a satisfied consumer.

If Duncan's having problems he needs to change his sim, service provider or hardware. Probably in that order. And just man up and do it, rather than coming in here and bleating/trolling for a rise.

 

Get out of here with your real world experience.

I've had no signal loads of times all around the world, generally everyone around me is in the same boat - sometimes literally - but occasionally there's a winner and sometimes that winner is the iPhone.

 

Hes repeated same link as I put up , which I thought was bit unoriginal

 

iv got no damn internet AT ALL this morning ! ( but full bars for calling )

I should be refunded as far as I'm concerned







* i tell i lie , I'm up to Edge now

 

Edge rarely works for me.

 

3G Is like dialup here , I've applied for sim unlock . I'm 12 months into contract out of 24

 

They maybe running around in house an cart but ......

Right , so got my 6s unlocked and girlfriends 6 unlocked

and slipped my sim into her phone , and guess what , internet is perfect!

while I was getting edge on my phone

And add insult to injury I'm now just over 12 months into contract , so what will apple do ?

I know full well voda have been mending their mast , but I always thought must be something amiss with phone as well

poxy antenna !

 

god knows how much business iv lost , voda mus have known something was up when they suggested I switch to wifi calling

 

What about your girlfriends sim in yours?

 

her sim doesn't work for 3g internet on mine either


we just swapped sims , didn't reconfigure any settings

hers works straight off the bat ,with either sim


shes on ee

 

I think the fact my SIM in her phone pulls up a page on mobile internet straight away where mine will do the same but at dial up speed is pretty conclusive

 

You need someone with the same phone really.

 

Damn , pages an pages of it

Kind of. You have a known problem with your local mast, until that's fixed holding it right could make a difference.

 

works fine with iPhone 6 and my voda sim

 

But you don't have an iPhone 6. There were likely changes that were awesome for some, but not for you. It was the same for me until 4G arrived.

You may have a case for a refund, maybe an upgrade to the 7.

 

The 6s and plus version are probably the worst iPhones for a few generations. My son's 6s bent like a banana and would lose battery power at 50℅ my daughters plus version has a knackered camera and again loses power when cold all just over a year old.

 

This one is ten months old, well when it started going wrong.

Thinking about it I'm pretty sure iv never had a phone that's made it through to the end contract all working . This is only second 24 month one iv had since '98 , if memory serves

 

Who else has iPhone 6s...?? Must be a few

What are your mobile internet experiences ?

 

Take it back.

Oh, you mean to the shop

Make sure you tell them that there's a broken cell tower in your area, that'll help them with the diagnosis.

 

It was broke, but was sent message that it is now fine ( about 3 weeks ago)

 

Ah, cross your fingers then, it's so subjective that unless there's a recall you'll need luck.

 

Well the "genius" plugged it in did various stuff, and concluded there's no hardware problem

So that leaves software and apps

All I know is every phone iv had to date would get internet with couple bars and 3g showing.
This one refuses and/or very very slow

 

I would recommend backing up to desktop btw, Not icloud

I can't find last 7 months worth of photos after resetting phone

 

Definitely back up locally if your amount of iCloud storage does not cover your amount of files. Free will get you going again but paid is best.

 

Check iCloud.com though as it may them to your iCloud library but not your back up.
