I'm not sure if anybody else has this problem but my iPhone 5 tends to drop the cellular connection when it's in standby for a prolonged amount of time (20 mins or so). This means I sometimes receive text messages 10 mins late when I open my phone. It's pretty frustrating because my iPhone 4 never had this problem. I'm contemplating going into the Apple store today to see what's up.

Any suggestions? Or anyone else having this problem?

There another thread somewhere, but long story short you're not the only one with cell service issues, it's been found that if you go into setting, general, cellular and turn off LTE it improves cell signal. It's worked for me, I'm with AT&T and they just rolled out LTE where I live so I'm thinking it might be that. Hope it helps ya.
