This is a past monday Apple also received a class action lawsuit for low Wi-Fi battles in the iPhone XRs. The company is accused of hiding the fact that its iPhone XR, released in 2018, is pushing a set of 2 x 2 MIMO anchors while the iPhone XS and XS Max are putting in 4 × 4 MIMO.
It is not the first time that a company has faced legalization of this problem, about a month ago a similar case was filed by the same court of the Northern California District. The new lawsuit, signed by 13 people, involves a group of affected iPhone XR owners accusing Apple of using low-tech and fault-free technology that could have made the model have communication problems.
The basis of need
Among the problems caused by this feature are alleged to be unanswered calls, cuts incoming and outgoing calls and download speed as cited by evidence in the Robert Altmann case as reported by AppleInsider. He is one of those affected who shows like the rest of his family that he does not have an iPhone XR but does not suffer from these problems with other types of company, and says even his previous iPhone X worked better.

The case is based on the fact that these problems are caused by the low-powered iPhone XR system, which uses two antennas instead of the fourth as a premium model, the iPhone XS. The 2 × 2 MIMO XR technology that they have is far more capable than its predecessor that uses only one antenna, but hides behind the 4 × 4 MIMO technology that uses four. Plaintiffs claim that Apple understood this and yet did not hesitate to produce and distribute this model without explaining to customers that there was a difference in this.
According to need "Apple knew or should have known it was selling less product, but did not report this to customers, expecting the latest model to include the latest technology.This It is supported by a set of reports that are said to indicate that the iPhone XR is working seamlessly in this case with the iPhone XS.
“Unwanted” Practices
Whether these finalists successfully complete their case will be another matter. While it is true that Apple does not emphasize on its website that the iPhone XR uses MIMO 2 × 2 technology, if that makes it clear on the device's technical specification page, of course if you're notified of this.
The lawsuit asked for indirect damages and legal fees for the case. The order is also requested by Apple to prevent it from using "misleading and taxing business practices"
