No one in the team wants the iPhone 4 with the grave issues it has, not the first batch at least and they are also worried they won't be able to sell the device as more and more disappointed users head to ebay and craig's list

Why is there no Iphone 4 review on GSMArena, a week after launch!? GSMArena's indepth reviews have always been excellent, but now I am looking elsewhere...

Sent my iphone 4 back. If they gave me a bumper free of charge to fix apples crap build quality I would of been happy and kept the phone. Apple should get sued imo, they are complete con merchants imho.

I'm surprised there is no indepth review of this phone yet. Still I probably wont get one, looking towards the Samsung Galaxy S or HTC Desire... If iphone didn't rely on itunes then I would grab an iphone.

iPhone 4 - NEVER.
CALL DROPS WHEN LEFT HAND CORNER IS TOUCHED - Pure hardware issue which can't be fixed by a patch. You can't always use a headset. To fix this you need to buy a bumper for 30$(manufacturing cost of this rubber thing will be around 5 cents).
Don't brand me an apple hater, I am not. Just being realist. Customers have their right to expect their phone to work as phone.

The great thing about the new iPhone is that it has sharp edges & the multitask option, so you can cut vegetables & surf the interwebz & the same time! Amazing.

xxx, 01 Jul 2010the nytimes.com just report that flash still beat html5.
... moreIt is very irresponsible behaviour to spread false information, especially when quoting other sources of news.
"brg.com just report that apple say in a statement they will recall the iphone4."
"the nytimes.com just report that flash still beat html5.
they also say html5 wouldn't be able to catch-up with flash anytime soon.
sorry my iphone4 or iphone 3gs couldn't play none of those video streamlined context."

[deleted post]Just want to thank our lord and master Steve Jobs for not including this bunch of features in iPhone 4!
Thank you Steve jobs for not including these useless features we neither want nor need!
iPhone is the best!
HARDWARE:
iPhone 4
Hardware flaws (exclusively in iPhone 4):
External uninsulated antennae that cause dropped calls and slow internet connections.
Screen and back made out of cheap glassy material that both scratches and cracks.
Dead pixels and light leakage on the "Retina" display.
Inverted volume controls on some units.
SIM cards don't work in some units.
Camera doesn't work in some units.
Proximity sensor doesn't work in some units.
Microphone doesn't work in some units.
Screen:
iDon't have a touch friendly screen, gloves, pens, styluses and not even fingernails work!
iDon't have neither haptic nor any other type feedback whatsoever.
iDon't have any precision compared to resistive touchscreens.
iDon't have a standard(16:10, 16:9, 4:3) aspect ratio only Apple custom ones(3:2) will fit my screen.
Power:
iDon't have USB charging without a dock adapter.
iDon't have any safety garment for the battery(1) melting is known to occur in Apple products(2)
iDon't have warranty for damage made by "external" force aka. the above.
Connectivity:
iDon't have DLNA (streaming HD content wireless on a HDTV).
iDon't have UPnP technology (automatic WiFi setup) some networks simply don't work.
iDon't have full 3G HSDPA speed (7mb/s vs. 2008 smatphones that have 10mb/s).
iDon't have full GPRS/EDGE speed (CLASS 10 is four times slower than CLASS 33!)
iDon't have a decent GSM/GPS/WiFi signal(1) the connection is far worse than on 3GS(2)
iDon't have standard USB connectivity(1) only custom cables(2)
iDon't give a damn about the environment: short cables but tons of iAccesories.
iDon't have IR, can't control: basic household items(1) TV, HDTV(2) DSLR camera(3) MAC(4)
Media/camera:
iDon't have stereo speakers.
iDon't have radio.
iDon't have FM transmitter.
iDon't have decent camera (small sensor and 72 DPI, which is less than most 5mp phones)
Design:
iDon't eject my sim without a special key.
iDon't have a removable battery.
iDon't have hot swappable memory.
iDon't sell cheap but my value at FOXCONN in China(1), where I am made, is ~190$(2)
SOFTWARE:
iOS 4.0
Web:
iDon't have audio/video streaming for 90% of the multimedia sites.
iDon't offer a real web experience, various sites only offer a phone version.
iDon't have Flash or Flash Lite - flash sites, apps or games simply do not work.
iDon't have push idle so battery drains fast even on push.
iDon't have push e-mail if i'm jailbroken, even if you pay!
iDon't render HTML5 graphics, nor can iHandle HTML5 controls.
iDon't process HTML attachments correctly.
File management:
iDon't have access to my internal folders by any means - no app in the iStore allows this!
iDon't even have access to set mp3s as ringtones.
iDon't have MIDP/JAVA support.
iDon't handle DivX,XviD,FLV native video.
iDon't handle ZIP, RAR or SFX - no app in the iStore allows this!
Connectivity:
iDon't handle videocall via the network, gTalk or Skype.
iDon't A2DP right (BT stereo) right: lags on videos(1) and games(2).
iDon't fully support AVRCP (BT remote)(1) industry standard(2) can't skip tracks.
iDon't support any Bluetooth services when pairing with a MacBook.
iDon't have any BT file sharing my BT is almost useless!
User Interface:
iDon't have themes support.
iDon't have a scalable OS, apps on the iPad are simply stretched to fit.
iDon't have a desktop, entire UI is organized as a single "start" menu.
iDon't have parallax (finger/screen offset) adjusting - low precision especially on small objects.
iPhoneOS/SDK limitations:
iDon't have native multitasking(1), apps have to be specially coded for multitasking (1993)(2)
iDon't allow cross compiling.
iDon't allow open development.
iDon't have proper platform security.
iDon't have proper application security(1), any non iStore app can damage your phone(2)
iDon't have any power optimization - the device overheats as admitted by Apple.
Camera:
iDon't have fine detail in pictures, high noise reduction smears the finer details.
iDon't have video stabilization.
iDon't have exposure control (ISO).
Misc:
iDon't have built-in basic functionality like:
sending contact cards via BT, TO-DO application, save web pages, calendar week view, etc.
iDon't have freeware, iTunes treats free applications like purchases + FairPlay DRM wrap.
iDon't have user privacy for: online shopping(1), visited sites(2), your location(3)
