Apple Confirms iPhone 18 Pro Max Cellular Defect on AT&T Network

Apple has confirmed that a small number of iPhone 18 Pro Max devices on the AT&T network are experiencing a cellular connectivity failure that cannot be fixed via software updates. Affected units, which display an 'SOS' icon instead of signal bars, must be replaced for free through Apple or AT&T. While the issue appears isolated to the Pro Max model using a Qualcomm modem, Apple and AT&T have released iOS 27.0.1 and a carrier settings update to prevent the problem from affecting other users. The root cause remains unconfirmed, though the defect is distinct from other launch issues like Face ID glitches or speaker anomalies.

T-Mobile Drops Starlink Branding as Big Three Launch Satellite Joint Venture

T-Mobile removed Starlink branding from its T-Satellite website coinciding with the official launch of a joint venture between T-Mobile, AT&T, and Verizon. The new entity, led by interim CEO Paul Roth, aims to pool spectrum and resources to eliminate coverage dead zones. While existing carrier-satellite agreements remain in place, the move signals a strategic shift to counter SpaceX's direct-to-cell ambitions and support alternative providers like AST SpaceMobile.

Apple Confirms AT&T-Specific Glitch Forces Free Replacements for iPhone 18 Pro Max

Apple has confirmed a cellular connectivity bug affecting a small number of iPhone 18 Pro Max users on AT&T networks in the US. The issue causes devices to lose signal, displaying an 'SOS' icon instead of bars, and prevents calls, texts, and data usage. While an iOS 27.0.1 update and carrier settings patch are available to prevent the issue for unaffected users, Apple states that phones already experiencing the failure cannot be fixed via software and require a free hardware replacement. The problem appears isolated to the iPhone 18 Pro Max, which uses a Qualcomm modem, unlike the iPhone 18 Pro which uses Apple's own C2 modem.
