Yesterday I spent four hours at this store. I have an Iphone X that has a very poor signal strength. It started in March. I went to the Apple store in the city first. They erased my phone and started as new, but they did not document it . A week later, my Iphone X was dropping the signal again. I called AT&T and they assured me it doesn't not come from them. My wife has the Iphone 6S and she has a great signal while I don't. So I went to Ridge Hill, waited an hour to be seen. At the Genius Bar, on of the employees tried my phone and told me my internet was terrible. He called the technical person. She checked the hardware, didn't find anything, then she said we need to erase my phone again. I told her it has been done before and I am looking for another option. The manager came, told me that because it wasn't documented they have to do it and that there are no other options. I was so frustrated. He said if I didn't let them erase it, he would leave. So they erased the phone, then told me there were no issues. I was so upset. They said that if they cannot reproduce the issues at the store, they won't do anything. When you reset your phone like new, it will work great but if there is a defect, the problem would keep happening. I argued with them. I talked to the three managers, at that point they were teaming up against me, not trying to find a solution. I left the store, walked 40 feet and the signal dropped again. I came back but the signal around the Apple store is strong so I could not show them the issue, even though the manager tried to connect to the internet 5 times and then he told me my phone was perfectly fine. At that point I was crying. I paid 1500 $ for a phone that doesn't work, lost two working afternoons. I bought a phone is supposed to be the best on the market. I went home, read online that many people have similar issues and it might be because Apple uses different cellular modems in different iPhone X models. For example, the US version of iPhone X (model A1865) contains a Qualcomm modem. This modem is superior in both performance and global adaptability to all types of systems according to online comments. The Canadian model (A1901) contains an Intel modem. This modem is a weaker performer according to the same sources. For some reasons, I have this modem. So if the issue comes from the modem, it would not show in all of the diagnostics. I went home, called Apple Support, he told me that there is no repair options for Iphone X, but he opened a case for me and now I am going to send my phone for intense test but if the issue is the modem, it doesn't seem they will acknowledge it. I bought the Iphone X, after they did that update which created many issues for owners of the Iphone 6. I had my I phone 6 for 3 years with no issues. I have many Apple products and never complained. For the first time, I went to complain , I was not taken seriously. I feel powerless and taken advantage from Apple. read more
