Reply to comment by tobleroneeater03 in If you noticed your iPhone is charging a little slower it may be due to a new setting Apple added in iOS 16.1 — Clean Energy Charging. With it turned on, iOS will only recharge the iPhone's battery when the electrical grid uses cleaner energy sources like solar or wind. by RonSwazy

Algarve at the moment.

It's an American-bought iPhone, so maybe that has something to do with it. 🤷‍♂️

Yup. Works great. As of the iPhone 14, the US models are eSIM-only though.

Some years there are also differences in frequency bands the radios can operate on. It often depends on the year, but if they can’t design an antenna/radio system that supports every frequency in common use, they’ll offer phones with antenna/radio systems best suited to specific markets.

Even when your device can’t use every local frequency band though, it almost always still works well generally. My 13 Pro Max gets LTE or 5G almost everywhere here. Does it support every frequency that Portuguese carriers use? That I don’t know.
