Separate area for niche lag issues including unexpected causes and/or electromagnetic interference (ECC = retransmits = lag). Interference (EMI, EMF) of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction latencies like a bad modem connection. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI.

Judging by your experience, the problem persists even far away from any EMI sources, which means your device is the source of the problem.
Please give me the link to the Chief study you mentioned earlier.
By the way, Iβd like to mention a story about a computer mouse interfering with the operation of a Boeing aircraft's controller from a distance of 7 km.
It's not a study he replied to a guy who claimed that dirty electricity can be stored

link, bro, please.
If I told you that my iPhone's screen drops to a 10Hz refresh rate when I charge it in a "problematic spot" and stays stuck at 10Hz absolutely everywhere else until I let the battery drain to 0% and charge it in a "good spot" would you believe me?

Here you go.

I have Iphone 15 plus and never noticed any difference like you mentioned and I'm more inclined to believe Chief when it comes to this topic. Phones are also not a good way to measure this problem. They are extremely inconsistent by nature (random overheating and spyware and bloatware running in background 24/7) touchscreen, etc.

For phones, the only difference I noticed on a bad socket vs. good socket is the charging time and heat, not phone performance...on bad wiring, it took well over 1 hour to charge from 15% to 90%, and it even refused to activate "fast charge" sometimes, and the charger was also very hot to touch, but on normal wiring all this is gone, it charges in below 40 minutes and the charger is only slightly warm.

Nah, if you have this issue and pay attention close enough you can see your phone change just like your monitor does. Sometimes text is more spaced out, the aspect ratio looks off, more blurry and other times more sharp etc. Perhaps it depends on the phone though
