If you came from iPhone XR/XS, did your wireless reception take a hit?

Did your reception take a hit at all? In the same places I normally go, I seem to drop calls and FaceTime on my 12 where my XR was perfectly fine. Even when there is 4-5 bars it dips.

I have better coverage on my 12 Pro than I did on my XS Max and 11 Pro. Last time I had this decent coverage was with the iPhone X which happened to be the Verizon model with a Qualcomm radio just like the one I have now.

I didn’t come from an iPhone XR, though my old XR had better reception than my 12 Pro does. Even data will drop out. I turn off cell radio off and on (airplane mode) and then the phone will find a better tower. Happens a lot with the 12 Pro for me. Never had that with iPhone XR or 11 Pro.
