If I can't hold my phone by the left lower corner, how I'm supposed to hold it? Satio's antenna is on the lowest part of the phone, so why doesn't it have reception issues?
iPhone 4 is indeed a good phone, but reception issues, isn't something forgivable by today's standards.

lol this is pathetic. Apple should be trying to fix the issue instead of just basically telling their customers to F*** off.

iPhone is too expensive, it has the same specifications that you can find on other phones for a cheaper price

Just like the Iphone, my Nokia 5800 also has its antenna on the bottom.(Not sure left or right though)
Tried this on my phone, making a call with left hand is no problem and there is no signal degradation.
However if I hold the bottom of the phone with both hand and apply pressure the signal goes down slightly.]
If I crush it harder and harder, the signal went down to about 3 bars.
However when I hold it normally again with my left hand, full signal returns..

Lol, 25 Jun 2010Really?? I have E55 and it is very good. It crashes rarely.... moreWell this is the second handset i had...my first one died completely and was replaced by nokia.
that was working fine until I updated to the latest software and they phone is very bad - it crashes usually when writing a text message - it often means I need to take the battery out to restart the phone.
Annoying to say the least

Whoever holds the phone with their left hands while texting will be screwed.
Whoever is left handed will also be screwed.

I am a Mac (I am using a Mac) & an Apple fan. This time it seems that the engineering team of Apple has made a blunder.
When Steve Jobs first showed the world the antenna arrangement of iPhone 4, I didn't really notice that's a design flaw. But when the reception problem of iPhone 4 rapidly increases in number, I remember one thing:
Quote from Nokia 5800 XpressMusic manual:
Antenna locations
Your device may have internal and external antennas. Avoid touching the antenna area unnecessarily while the antenna is transmitting or receiving. Contact with antennas affects the communication quality and may cause a higher power level during operation and may reduce the battery life.
How come Apple would make the antennas as part of the phone edges which contact directly to the users' hands? As human hands is conductive, which will probably short the circuit between the antenna which is responsible for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS and the one that is responsible for UMTS & GSM. Even a key will short the circuit as you can see some video in YouTube concerning the iPhone 4 reception problem.
On balance, use a protective case or avoid use your left hand when making calls.

wow, agian, iphone's first with this technology. i heard that they made their antenna external so if you'll be out there on a place where theres no signal, you can use your Rabbit antenna on your new iphone..
AMAZING!
