This xs max dual sim network reception is quite weak. Been roaming in thai and seems my secondary digi roaming always 1 or 2 bar only.
Anybody have similar issue ?

Anyone have issue with spotlight search ? Suddenly the spotlight search become very slow ( 10s to show the app that i typed ) . Happen since 2 days ago with no other problem except the slow show up of app when type the app i wanted to search.
Every setting is exactly the same as before never touch anything it just happen suddenly.
Tried soft reset , adjusting back and forth the siri & search setting with no improvement. The least i would want to do is doing a full restore so anyone have idea how to fix this ?
Google for solution but still cant find the solution. Wonder what make it very slow to show the app i search and its annoying because i rely on this very much.

Strange, I thought T&L sold HK models? Goes to show there is always an element of risk when buying parallel import stuffs. Anyway, glad your issue was resolved by Apple. I'd be sure to use your case as a reference in case anything goes wrong with both my XS Max and XR from T&L! laugh.gif
No issues on my XR though, I just tried it. Are you already on iOS 12.2?
*
Yes , on the latest 12.2 . Really cant figure out what’s the problem as it suddenly become really slow to show the results, which usually instantaneous

I guess the only option is for a hard reset to see if the problem persists.

:x :x :x , the most annoying solution, and yet it doesnt guarantee solve the problem if i restore it as i read from the apple discussion forum. The problem came back not long after.

Update on the spotlight search, after switching everything off related to siri and suggestion ( pain in the **s ) because i need to individually click on the button one by one and i hv over 100++ app. The search became instantaneous again.

Yeah no choice , tried all possible way except hard reset because that was the least i wanted to do . The spotlight search is damn too important feature for me as i have tons of app and sometime searching the app manually is just insane lol. I really cant remember where i put the app.

IF HK set, then send it in for a replacment. If not, still send it in for a replacement. Just get a new phone. You paid for the price, shouldn't get these kind of quality.

But show them the proof.

Why HK set and send for replacement ? Been sometime didnt follow with this thread, any problem with it ?

I think there was a case of a HK set whereby when a second SIM was inserted, the phone signal dropped significantly. The owner successfully claimed warranty for it here at one of the authorised Apple Service Centres.

I also felt the reception is not really good compared to my previous 8 plus. Sometime the signal for both line will just “ reset “ itself for a few seconds.

I felt the same when I compared my previous X to my previous 8 Plus, and also same when comparing the X to my XR/XS Max. But put an iPhone next to any of my Android phone and the difference is apparent - the Android phone reception is so much better!

It’s a case of the Intel vs Qualcomm modems, I guess.
*
Yeah , apart from the network i felt gps is not that good compared to my previous device as well. Intel problem too ? Haha. Maybe will go try RMA at BKK Apple Store.
Anyone tried claim warranty at apple store ? Is it can get replacement on the spot or still need to wait ? Bad thing is i dont have spare phone during the claim period.

Well, if it’s an Apple Store you can try, it should be Ok. For us here with no Apple stores and only authorised service centres, it could be a different story trying to claim something like this - they may give all sort of excuses laugh.gif

But i will get a single sim with esim Seed unit right ?

Actually i am still very skeptical with how the esim work especially in roaming as i travel quite alot.
Do we have a qr code or something that we can keep in the even of software crash or phone lost we will able to add the number again by ourself without going to the center to activate the number again?
