MacRumors, various early adopters have shared feedback across multiple online platforms regarding their experiences with Wi-Fi and wireless connections on the latest models.
What’s intriguing about this situation is that the majority have reported that it only occurs when their Apple Watch is unlocked. On the MacRumors Forum, one user mentioned: “Interestingly, this only occurs when I’m wearing my Apple Watch (which is already unlocked) and I unlock my iPhone. It happens almost 100% of the time. This also reflects in wireless CarPlay. When I’m wearing my watch and I unlock my iPhone, CarPlay will disconnect and then reconnect.” When the user does not have their watch on, the Wi-Fi appears to function smoothly.
