Here’s a write up on the RF performance on the new iPhone. He is generally a contributor to a Sprint forum, but in the graphs other LTE frequencies are included.

Interesting that the Max is not so Max in performance.

This is something a lot of people don't think about. I've got an iPhone 7 and my connection with Verizon is iffy at my home. My friends who live slightly up a hill get a much better signal. So RF performance is important to me.

My 6+ would already be useless in parts of my house without WiFi calling. WiFi calling can still save me at home, sketchier connections would, in general, be no bueno.

Does the guy work for google?

Does anyone outside of google actually uses google +?

 

[Deguello]

If he worked for Google would that mean his results or conclusions are wrong?

Enginners are usually quite rational beings, I would trust them - Intel modems are known for their slightly worse reception than Qualcomms so this would be no big surprise.

Except it has nothing to do with intel or Qualcomm.
Don’t think you actually read the link.

I wouldn’t trust an engineer from google.

The measurements reflected in the article seem to be taken directly from measurements that are in the FCC reports on the devices. You can check the info for yourself.

This is an important subject. It afffects call quality and data speed and the ability to do those things at all in low signal areas. Also, battery life. I’m surprised there’s not already more discussion.
