It\u2019s not uncommon for new iPhone models to introduce issues for a small subset of users. With iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, it seems a number of users have encountered a strange speaker hiss when charging.<\/p>\n

Shortly after iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max launched, some users grew concerned about the product\u2019s durability due to scratches observed at Apple Stores. That turned out to be a non-issue<\/a>, with Apple tweaking its display setups to mitigate the transfer of materials from MagSafe stands to the backs of iPhones.<\/p>\n But today at MacRumors, Juli Clover reports<\/a> on another potential iPhone 17 Pro issue: a \u201cstatic or hissing noise that occurs when the\u00a0iPhone\u00a0is charging.\u201d<\/p>\n There are\u00a0multiple discussions<\/a>\u00a0about\u00a0the issue<\/a>\u00a0on Reddit,\u00a0the MacRumors forums<\/a>, and\u00a0Apple\u2019s Support Community<\/a>, where affected users say there is a noticeable static noise \u201clike an old radio.\u201d Some people report hearing it when playing audio and turning the volume down, while others say the static is audible without anything playing from the speakers. In some cases, there is a low crackle or a hiss when scrolling through webpages when the \u200ciPhone\u200c is charging, and some people hear the noise at low volumes even when the \u200ciPhone\u200c isn\u2019t on a charger.<\/p>\n Reports about the speaker issue seem to vary when it comes to the severity of the problem. But one of the more extreme cases can be seen (and heard) via this user video<\/a>.<\/p>\n So far, users who reported the speaker problem back in September seem to still be encountering the issue as of iOS 26.2. And while some have had the issue resolved by swapping their iPhone for a new model, for others the problem has persisted across multiple models.<\/p>\n It\u2019s possible iOS 26.3 will fix the issue when it launches\u2014a release is expected in just a few weeks<\/a>. However, there doesn\u2019t appear to be evidence of a fix coming just yet.<\/p>\n Have you encountered issues like this on your iPhone 17 Pro or Pro Max?
