Apple has just released the iOS 27.0.1 update, fixing three major bugs in the iPhone 18 Pro series in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, new anomalies soon emerged. This time the problem lies in the phone’s speaker.
According to foreign media reports, many foreign users of the iPhone 18 Pro series have recently reported abnormal speaker sound problems in communities such as Reddit. Some people have encountered this problem in both iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The abnormal sound is mainly said to come from the speaker of the handset, which will make popping, clicking, or subtle popping sounds from time to time. Some users even encountered the same problem after switching to a new phone.
What's more troublesome is that there doesn't seem to be a fixed situation in which this problem occurs. Some people describe the abnormal sound as occurring continuously, while others only experience it during specific operations, such as using apps, scrolling web pages, receiving notifications, keyboard pop-ups, or making calls over the mobile network. The sound may suddenly appear. In addition, turning on and off airplane mode and quickly adjusting the screen brightness also trigger the same abnormal sound.
I just updated iOS 27.0.1 and the cause of the abnormal speaker sound is still unknown.
It is worth noting that Apple’s latest release of iOS 27.0.1 fixes three issues for the iPhone 18 Pro series, including a reboot that may occur after Face ID verification fails, color artifacts that may occur when taking photos with 2x zoom and f/1.48 aperture, and the screen may temporarily become unresponsive when the Notification Center and Control Center are opened at the same time.
It is still unclear why the speakers of the iPhone 18 Pro series have abnormal sound. If it is ultimately confirmed to be a software problem, Apple should fix it through updates.
