Multiple iPhone 17 models suffering from Wi-Fi bug — what you need to know

Apple iPhone 17 review.

New iPhones mean new problems, and the iPhone 17 is absolutely no exception to that trend. In fact, some early adopters have already reported issues with the Wi-Fi cutting out intermittently on iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone Air. Which doesn't sound like a good thing.

The issue in question seems to affect users by disconnecting Wi-Fi at random points, only to reconnect when they unlock the phone. Now you may think that this isn't a major problem, because why would you need Wi-Fi if your phone is locked? But you would be wrong.
