◆ Speaker breaks sound
In the Apple specialized media "Mac Rumors" forum, some reports say that sound cracking occurs in the speaker on the front part of the front of iPhone X, the side with the TrueDepth camera. What happens is when you are playing with the volume set to its maximum, and it seems that sound cracking is occurring as well as ringing tone and alarm sounding not only during music and movie playback.


There are individual differences in the occurrence of this phenomenon, and it seems that it is not seen in all terminals. Also, it is not based on specific iOS versions, terminal settings, etc., but it is said to occur in various situations.

Two patterns of "software origin theory" and "hardware origin theory" can be considered as anxious sources. Considering that there are also cases where problems do not occur even if other users play at the maximum volume, it is thought that it is caused not by software but by variation in the quality of hardware, but software origin theory Users who advocate. In fact, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus also experienced problems with noise from the speakers, which has been corrected in iOS 11.0.2, so it seems to be difficult to determine the cause until detailed investigation is done .

Some users who noticed the problem consulted Apple and received some exchanges of the terminal. Apple has not responded to inquiries from Mac Rumors at the time of writing the article.

◆ Response of Display Declines
The phenomenon which is concerned about display is clarified. One Reddit user tried to operate iPhone X under a low temperature environment of minus 20 degrees, but he noticed that the terminal might not react to the touch. The probability that a touch was recognized was about 20%, but it seems that once you lock the terminal and unlock it again you can use it.

Another user living in Minneapolis also encountered a similar situation in a minus 14 degree environment. And, similarly once locking the terminal and unlocking it, the problem seems to have been solved. This user says, "I had to tap several times to notice the tap and it was a little troublesome, next time I would like to try" Lock to unlock strategy "can be used."

This situation seems to be occurring especially when the terminal is cooled down suddenly. On the other hand, Apple has announcedspecificationSince the operating ambient temperature of iPhone X is "0 degrees to 35 degrees Celsius", it is inevitable even if it can be tidied up to the point that the motion becomes unstable in extremely cold situations .

Apple said about this matter, "At our company, we understand the phenomenon that iPhone X's screen temporarily becomes unresponsive to touch operation when it changes to a cold cold environment.In a few seconds the screen behaves as original I will return as expected.This problem will be handled by future software update ", I respond to CNET.

Jonathan Ive, Apple's Chief Design Officer (CDO), also said that iPhone X "totally misplaced in a year" and what kind of change can happen.
