In a company as Apple there are many, many layers in management and someone lied about its tests to keep his/her job and faked quality reports. The production rolled out and it was too late to correct the defect. Such situation is common in large corporations, see Toyota's brakes defect.

But I'm also sure that iPhone's buyers doesn't even check iPhone's or other phones' performance on this web site. They are usually in US and are used with defective products for high price. It is just OK to have defects for $200 when you get $100,000-$200,000/yr family income. Each 6 months they can buy other phone and keep about 2-4 cell phones, 2-3 cars.

I think and feel that Steve Jobs is the best marketing individual in this planet .... you can check his antenna press conference on 16th July 2010 in Apple site ...
1st, he asked the users not to grip the phone in such a way ....
2nd, he tried to change physics by SW update
I guess if there will be no coverage, but using updated SW -> it shows good signal coverage. I guess it would make Apples relationship worst with AT&T, as end customer will point the finger to AT&T then. And the idea was skipped.
3rd, today in the press conference he was proving that every Smartphones have weak spot, like iphone 4 ...
http://www.apple.com/antenna/ ..... comparing with Blackberry Bold 9700, HTC .. and Samsung smartphone ... anyway none of the smartphones (3 NOKIA models, 4 Blackberry models, One Samsung) in my home have got the trouble in a way what was showed in the video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKIcaejkpD4 .... iphone antenna song … it’s cool
4th, today he provided a solution to use a bumper (or casing) ... it makes more sense now.
That’s for sure; he will not mention that the problem is related with the aggressive industrial design for such a complicated wireless device (with 7 or 8 radio) -> using phone outer case or structure metal as antenna without any non-conductive material coating. iphone 4 antenna simply changes its physical length when gripping on the weak spot as human body is not like insulator. Therefore antenna has got different resonance frequency than what it should get. This is very simple
And for this, Apple doesn’t need 18 antenna scientists/engineers with PhD degree and 100 million worth of antenna chambers.
The data or statistics what he provided today -> those sound nice, but not close to reality! He is simply making us fool ...

"I notice 6.7s across the board for voting results for the iPhones while the Galaxy S got 8.7s. Does that mean the voters are stupid because they rated the iPhone 4 so lowly?"

Even if people were totally uninformed, and blindly following, they would still be unhappy if the antenna kept dropping their calls, no matter how loyal an Apple fan. After all, they could always buy an iPhone 3GS. However, notice what's happened? A full 3 weeks since launch, a whole lot of noise in the media.. but... no mass returns.
People seem to forget why Apple fans are bashed. They are actually more sensitive to quality, and are the type who only go for the best things that they can. Apple fans are the first to complain to Apple, when they are unhappy about a product from Apple.
It is therefore illogical to that despite all the media hoopla about the antenna issue, there has been no mass returns. Rather, the phone has sold over 3 million, and this has only been the limited release. The phone hasn't even been released to the whole world yet.
Why no mass returns? The iPhone 4 is fine, and performs well that's why.

iphone4fansunited, 17 Jul 2010Replaced my iPhone 4 for the Samsung Galaxy...I definitely ... moreFirst of all, it wasn't the media that caused this mess...it was Apple's problem to begin with. Notice how Apple always blame others for problems that are generated through their negligence?
Secondly, I did mention in my comment that there is 16GB memory on board my Galaxy S, as well as a MicroSD card support for up to 32GB.
How can you say my post is wrong when all I have stated are facts (coming from an ex-iPhone 4 user). And isn't it great that we can upload videos in various file formats, even if pirated movies are supported. It's called CHOICE, something that the iPhone 4 doesn't offer much of.
I notice 6.7s across the board for voting results for the iPhones while the Galaxy S got 8.7s. Does that mean the voters are stupid because they rated the iPhone 4 so lowly?

I owned an iphone 3gs and i love iphone actually,its design,its fast response,good entrertainment device which you can use it as a music player,internet surfing and watching movie on it.but i have to admitted that iphone 4 is a crap with the antenna problem itself.The way Steve response to this by providing a FREE CASE is a dump act and irresponsible.He should have keep the design and do something on the dead spot ( like fixing a insulator) for the upcoming iphone 4 products and replace all the phone which has the problem with no charge.i think this the only way and response to LOVE THE IPHONE USERS !!!!

it's going down, sorry apple. but all these people who own iphone 4 have experience signal problems not just in usa but other countries as well. maybe the new update os4.01 might fix it, but we'll see. i have iphone 2g, 3g, 3gs and nothing like this has ever happen to it (signal dropping off if you held it in certain way) all 3 models have been jailbroken, then back again to legit update still works fine. my point is having read & research about iphone 4, im going to skip on this one. i'm not risking getting iphone 4 if the signal is dropping of, after all whats the point of a phone but to call and by that you need a good signal. (sorry cant deny wahts going on with the news the facts and hype) people lost interest on the iphone 4...and you know what im not alone with this opinion.

Anonymous, 17 Jul 2010Look y'all, I understand that there are annoying Apple hate... moreAccording to Apple 0.55% of iPhone 4 users called customer care regarding the issue, 1.7% of users returned iPhone 4's.
The iPhone 4 is still getting high satisfaction ratings from actual owners in spite of all the whining from people who don't own them.

This should be deleted and wrong, vote 10s everyone and stop the lies.
We don't want miroSD because the memory is on board.
We don't want DivX,Xvid file support because pirated videos are on that format and Mov file format is more popular anyway
Buy this and show steve is ok and we agree that the media have caused this mess.

I don't have no problem with my iPhone 4. I don't know why people you don't even have the iPhone 4 and those morons exaggerating negatively about Antenna issues. Return your iPhone 4 back for a refund and stop complaining. Apple is not begging you guys to buy their iPhone 4.
