Apple finds iPhone 4 signal bars misleading, hiding poor signal

02 July, 2010
Apple just issued their official statement on the non-existent iPhone 4 reception issues. What iPhone 4 users are experiencing when they grip the lower left corner is just their real signal, poor as it seems...

Very true dude

But not for Jobs, he still uses his blackberry for bushiness that's 5 years old, funny that.
That's because as he travels the country he'll have "a reliable phone"

      So your friend works for Apple. And you say that Apple is evil. Then tell your friend to leave :) Was he forced to work for Apple? Was he caged by Apple? People have a choice buddy. If your friend thinks Apple is evil, then he should leave and work somewhere else :) Since you brought up your friend working for Apple, why don you tell us what your friend's name is, and which department he works at? :)

      Look, if Apple is an evil employer like you said they are, no one would work for them. Oh let me guess, Apple either hypnotized all their employees or threatened to kill their families if they quit, hahahahahaha. I knew you'd say that, hahahahaha

        The CLARO 3G network is very Strong in Jamaica. It was only today Saturday July 3,2010 that a visitor to the Island was carrying his IPHONE 4, curious as I was about the allegations surrounding the issues with the Antenna I decided to ask him if he was having problems on the AT&T network regarding drop calls, not surprise, he said YES! well the "death Grip" was applied to the IPHONE 4 as that was shown in many IPHONE 4 reviews where the signal would drop to "ZERO", well It did not move from full strength, not even 1 bar of signal was dropped, he tried it with both hands, gripping the phone as if he wanted to choke the phone to death.. is there a problem with the AT&T Network??

          Jealous, jealous, jealous. That's not a good thing to have buddy. Try to learn to let others be. Especially when it has nothing to do with you. I wish you happiness with whatever device you have :) Why can't you just be happy for us as well :) Oh I see now, it's because your favorite company that you love so much is losing market and capital share to Apple, hahahahahaha

So why can't you just wait and see if this os update can improve reception from dropping? You're not using an iphone anyway, so why are you overly concerned? :)

                So why can't you just wait and see if people would actually return all the iphone4's?

                  nintendo and the faulty straps or the wii controllers
                  those were replaced
                  and the faulty square button on the psp sony fixed that

                  and with nokia with the 5800 NAM when it came to N.A it wasn't nokia's RF problem it was the neworks but nokia took the fall and recalled the phone that were on pre order and gave the a firmware update to fix
                  and it was fine after

                  the iphone 4's reception issue is a WORLD WIDE problem
                  you can't cover it up

                    i think it's high time this apple guys stops cruising on the mentality of the average phone user. What can a firmware upgrade do to a poorly designed phone. Will it rearrange the signal receptors within the device? They better start a recall of all defective phone like other companies have been doing.

                      [deleted post]if you where smart enough the CEO of main companies like Nike for example DO check the work conditions of there suppliers and if they do not like what they see they DO something about it

                      apple doesn't care they just want as much money as possible before something goes terrible like what just happened


                      remember that big fiasco nike had with children working in the factories that make their products

                      they HAD to fix that even if it hurt their image for a few years time

                      and where no jealous were just informing the misinformed and unfortunate people

                      i bet you didn't know how evil apple is my friend worked for them for 3 years

                      and since i live in canada
                      the iphone came late

                      so the people that had them and worked at the apple store could not be seen in public at work with an iphone or they would get fired on spot or even as to have it on floor

                      ........please i know what i'm talking about

                          [deleted post]Well, I really wish them best to sale as many iPhone4 as possible in short time so when they fall, they fall hard, only to get up to produce something original and true to their sales-word, which right now are all based on lies and sugar-coats.

                          You iphone fans, or i-sheeps might let go of Apple but when some real serious consumer ran into problems like that after spending that much,... ho ho ho man you really don't wanna know how far they can go.
