Dropping signal since beta 4 install

It happens about 10x a day on my 6s+ on ATT. Interestingly, it happens in the same exact locations when I'm driving through my parking deck or walking down a stairwell in my office. My guess is there's a bug in the way iPhone handles a low strentgth cellular signal (possibly related to the switch from LTE to 4G?)
Same thing here on mine. Telenor (operator) in Sweden. Happening a few times every hour. Girlfriend has 6+ while I have 6S+ and she has no issues.
Same for me as well. Unlocked 6S+ on Telus in Canada. I tried resetting network settings with no success. 
I switched my 6s+ on AT&T to 4G only - turned off LTE - and we're still having the same issue/bug
Something triggers it for me. For example, I can replicate that every time I use my Viper SmartStart app to start my car, I tap the start button and my LTE drops out. Literally every time.
What's interesting is my friend on AT&T isn't having any issues either. But now that I think about it he's on a 6+, not 6s+.
6S on Verizon with public beta 3. I can reproduced data connection drop ever time I try to a search with Safari. Turning on and then off airplane mode restores data connection. Going to try it with my wife's 6 tonight when she gets home.
Has been reported.

Bummer. Good thinking to run that test. I wonder if manually updating carrier settings from ATT would fix it? I'll try this evening.I switched my 6s+ on AT&T to 4G only - turned off LTE - and we're still having the same issue/bug
On T-Mobile (US) I Disabled LTE and so far no dropped cellular signal. Still testing. So far going strong for the last 5 minutes, previously would have dropped several times in that 5 minutes. Perhaps an LTE error/glitch.
Am on Vodafone UK - 6S+
Signal for me so far is as good as had on previous beta and on IOS9 - no dropping out
Don't know if relevant but our signal is only 2G - phone mobile settings set on 3G
Am in the sticks in N East Scotland so our local signal still only 2G - and only one local mast
( maybe for once benefitting from low tech 2G )
