Has anyone with the iPhone 13 had trouble with folks hearing them due to the phone cutting out when they had the caller on speaker phone? I've seen the issue mentioned a few times when doing a Google search, but I've missed it if it was brought up on the list before since I pretty much never put the phone on speaker when I'm on a call.
As I mentioned a while back, I took advantage of the deal from Walmart at Thanksgiving and purchased an iPhone 13 and an iPhone 13 Mini, getting the $300 Walmart gift card for each purchase. Anyway, I tried hard to like the iPhone 13, especially because of its better battery life, but it was just bigger than I liked, so I wound up making a deal with my sister in-law to let her buy the phone from me at a much-reduced price, what with being family and all. When she got the phone set up, though, she said folks were telling her that the phone kept cutting out while she was talking and thus they couldn't understand a lot of what she was saying. Now, as my subject line implied, she was indeed using the phone on speaker phone, as that is how she primarily uses her phones, while I almost never use the speaker phone when I'm talking with someone. And in fact, when she's called me on the 13, the phone often has cut out and I've had to ask her to repeat things, but I could hear her just fine without any problems when I've ask her to take me off speaker phone. She's talked with Apple a few times and even had the occasion to go to an Apple store yesterday and they ran some tests on the phone and told her that everything seemed fine with the phone and suggested it might be a carrier problem. Then on the other hand, her carrier, AT&T, referred her back to Apple. She is just about to the point where she says she's going to ask AT&T to switch things back so she can use her iPhone 8 Plus which worked just fine on speaker phone and give me back the iPhone 13. I would really hate for her to do that as she would lose the newer phone as well as have to go back to a 64 GB phone as opposed to the 128 GB of the 13. But AT&T says they can't help, and seeing as the nearest Apple store is almost 100 miles away from us, she can't really keep going there either. I do still have the AppleCare Plus monthly subscription on that phone, as I wanted to make sure things were working correctly for her before letting that go, which I guess could be a good thing if she really does give me the phone back and I of course refund the small amount we both agreed she would pay for it. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
