unfortunately the network selection optimistation is STILL buggy. It was better after the first restart(latched on to 5g network), but after a second restart it is back to unstable network selection. 4g is working fine, but the phone simply takes a long time to connect to 5g network. And then it fails and falls back to 4g.
The same sim in a different brand phone works fine in the same locations. This is on Jio 5g network.
The phone used to work absolutely great before the december update. Then the network problems started showing and after the NOS 3 update has become unusable.
This is horrible QC and testing from Nothing. Network is the most important aspect of a phone. Otherwise it is a glorified ipod.
The bug seems to be that the phone simply fails to register the 5g network after the December updates. Then falls back to 4g. User facing the issue for 2 months and yet to solve is not a good look.
