Does anyone know if the 8 or 8 + will have the same intel or Qualcomm issue in regards to cross compatibility withhold all carriers?

Must be a rare issue.

No iPhone owner I know has complained to me about this. And on travel I carry 2 phones. The iPhone seems to do better connecting than my two androids.

So I have to write the issue you are asking about must be rare.

It's different.
It's up to you to find it better or not, after you compared them. For example, it has no touch ID. And then, if you find it better, it's up to you to decide if it's so much better that you're willing to pay the higher price.
