Fortunately, Apple acknowledged the crackling sound problem on Milesabovetech’s iPhone 15 Pro Max. He confirmed this in a follow-up TikTok video, in which he said that Apple replaced his phone twice at no cost.
It’s possible that the audio problems are caused by a software bug that Apple can fix with an update. But it’s also possible that the issue is due to a hardware defect, which means that Apple would need to replace the affected devices.In the meantime, there are a few things that users can try to resolve the issue:
- Make sure that the speaker openings are not blocked by dirt, dust, or a case.
- Try restarting your phone.
- Update your phone to the latest iOS version.
- Reset your phone’s audio settings.
If users have tried all of these things and the issue persists, they may need to contact Apple support for further assistance.
