The hit for users will be even harder to take as iOS 15.1.1 was launched especially to "improve call drop performance" for iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 owners - it appears to have had the opposite effect. Forbes reported that a number of iPhone 13 customers are saying that the allegations are nothing new and that they have been suffering since the release of iOS 15, which might hint at a hardware fault only weeks after Apple expanded its iPhone 12 recall due to audio issues.
