Question about Apple iPhone 17

4 days ago

To everyone who has the iPhone17 and to the Galaxus team - I hope to receive as much feedback as possible: After a long search, as a previous Galaxy user, I decided on the iPhone 17 for my new smartphone. It seemed to fit my criteria best - above all, it seemed to be a consistent choice that offers stability in connectivity (even in weaker signal regions). Connectivity is a key criterion for me. Then 2 days ago I came across the PROBLEMS of the iPhone 17 series, which have apparently been there since the beginning. Even worse: they have not yet been solved (April 2026). It seems to affect millions of users, but does not follow a clear pattern: not everyone is affected. Those who are not affected are delighted with the Iphone17. I include some links below for your information. I find the breadth of deeper problems worrying: Signals that drop out, mobile phone service repeatedly cuts out, wifi cuts out. Screen stays black after charging and can no longer be switched on, smartphones that keep switching themselves off, problems activating e-Sim and much more. As far as I know, there is no clear statement from Apple. It doesn't even seem clear whether these are purely software problems. I read in one source about a presumably "fatal combination of sensor-driven hardware requirements and specific software triggers within the iOS ecosystem". Now to my QUESTIONS; I am primarily referring to the standard iPhone 17 version: USERS: have you experienced REGULAR, recurring problems (not 1-2 time bugs)? Does it work for you? How is the connectivity (phone calls, connections, signal, WLAN) in different situations? GALAXUS: What are your experiences? Do you have any feedback? How risky is a purchase?
