Where do these phones get their system time? I noticed the following (due to calendar reminders)...
Samsung S6 Edge+ on Sprint MVNO 7:45
Moto G5 Plus on Sprint 7:43
iPhone 7 Plus on Sprint 7:42
Moto G6 on FP LTE SIM 7:42
Chromebook on wifi 7:42
?!?

From the year 1982, perhaps. Your iphone has the correct time according to the linked article. But I just noticed that the article is 7 years old, so more research is needed.

Not really, the earliest to latest differs by 3 minutes.

Note4 on FreedomPop Sprint showed 7:42
Seems to be a conundrum for some users.
My note 4 has a 2 minute time discrepancy - anyone experiencing this? I'm sure it's 'operator' error, so any help is very much appreciated. - e.g. when I go to reply to a text, my reply shows up in the time line before the initial text that was sent...
My Moto X used to match time well, but has slowed to a full 5 minutes behind. I thought all cell phones synced time with the network, but maybe not. I'm on ATT & my wife's S4 clock is correct & matches all other "credible sources ".
Has anyone...

Oops, turns out I had turned off automatic network time on the S6 Edge+ and the Moto G5 Plus. Matches now.
Time solves some problems.

This brings up another observation... I'm sure I had the times match initially, looks like the internal clock of each device drifted.
