iPhone 18 Pro Owners Complain of Speaker Crackling or Popping

Some iPhone 18 Pro owners have noticed an unusual crackling sound coming from the speaker of the device, leading to complaints on the MacRumors forums and Reddit . Users have called it a crackle, a faint tick or pop, or random clicking. Many say the problem is with the earpiece speaker, and both the &zwnj;iPhone 18 Pro&zwnj; and &zwnj;iPhone 18 Pro&zwnj; Max appear to be affected. Some people hear the sound consistently, while others hear it during app use, scrolling websites, when receiving notifications, when the keyboard pops up, or when making a call using a cellular connection. On affected units, reports suggest toggling Airplane Mode on and off triggers the sound, as does adjusting screen brightness quickly. Apple released iOS 27.0.1 yesterday to fix a bug that could cause &zwnj;iPhone 18 Pro&zwnj; models to restart when Face ID authentication fails. The release notes didn't mention a speaker fix, and early feedback says the update did not help . There are reports from people who returned their &zwnj;iPhone 18 Pro&zwnj; models only to get a second iPhone with the same issue. It's not clear what's causing the problem, but if it is a bug, a future software update may address it.

You Can 'Get Ready' for iPhone Duo Pre-Orders on October 12

People who plan to purchase an iPhone Duo can go through the "Get Ready" process starting on Monday, October 12. The new detail was added to the iPhone Duo product page yesterday, according to Reddit . Get Ready lets users select a preferred color and capacity, confirm their carrier status, choose accessories, choose an AppleCare + plan, select a trade-in, add a payment method, and set a shipping and billing address. When pre-orders go live, Get Ready is helpful because it allows for one-tap ordering. It will be especially beneficial for the &zwnj;iPhone Duo&zwnj; because supplies are expected to be limited. Pre-orders could sell out within minutes given reports of production issues leading to supply constraints, and users who have Get Ready will be able to submit orders faster. &zwnj;iPhone Duo&zwnj; pre-orders will begin on Friday, October 16 at 5 a.m. Pacific Time or 8 a.m. Eastern Time. The device will launch on Friday, October 23. Pricing starts at $1,999.
