So far with me new 11 Pro Max I notice inconsistencies in the cell signal I didn’t have with my X. I’m on Sprint and sitting in my desk at work I have seen the signal be 1 bar or 5 bars within a matter of minutes. Additionally I’ve had data issue appear that prevent me from streaming Sirius or reading twitter etc. that go away when I restart the phone. After the restart it goes right back to 4 or 5 bars of signal.

I never had this issue with my X so is this happening to anyone else? Is this a carrier issue or an antenna issue?
 
From what I’ve read on other forum posts the software is quite slow at deciding which antenna to use (11 pro max has four) hard for me to comment as I live in an area where I don’t get any mobile signal so I only use WiFi call
 
Called Apple suport today, they made hardware diagnostics. Told me that hardware is all good. I hope this gets sorted out with next iOS upgrade.
