No difference for me with 26.3 (getting same noises).
But again, the only way I can hear it is to press the phone physically hard into my ear (the bottom part) to be able to hear anything. I don't hear anything with normal use or without the phone physically pressed into my ear - even in a 100% silent room. A distance of greater than 2 cm from my ear, I can't hear anything.
Recently I have a feeling that the noise is gone. Perhaps it was fixed in the latest software update. Do people find the same?
Did you had it before? Explain why it is gone in detail. What does it do different when it did made noise?
What version did you upgrade to?
26.4 just got released.
I am still using 26.3.1. So this improvement happened probably between 26.2 and 26.3. Before this upgrade, I had this issue. In recent weeks, I don't quite notice the noise. I believe there is an improvement on my iPhone. I am just less sure about what actually improved it.
Did it improve or completely gone?
What phone you got? what country and when did you bought it?
Practically completely gone. Maybe in very special occasions in a very quiet environment there is still hint of such noise (could be my imagination though). Anyway, I don't really feel it in a daily basis, unlike before.
