Lol! After the bad handling by Apple, and people just accepting their m*ronic excuses that doesn't make sense, even GSMarena calls them sheep, and they are not the only Mobilereview site that have done it. Freakin hilarious! It's getting more and more official.
It's funny how Apple are becoming common street hustlers. They are acting understanding abour the 30 days full refund and in the same statement issues a totally non-doable software update so people won't return their phone in truckloads.
A update that is conventiently scheduled right after the 30 days of refund so people can't return their phones anymore, great hustle and stall tactictsc Apple, this sort of scam to save money only work if you have people who actually buy the bulls*it you tell them.
If i was a iPhone 4 user i would be insulted and fuming with anger. No one has the right to go out in public and call you an id*ot. Apple labelled their buyers mindless mo*ons in front of the whole world, which is far from ok.
It's ok to have to have software or hardware issue on a phone, it happens, even if this is pretty serious one, but treating customers like a bunch of nitwits is not ok.
You are holding it wrong, wrong signal bar issue (which does not explain dropped calls), and even worse, if this scenario is true, Apple are totally misleading their customers by giving out a better reception bar then phone really has to hide the weak reception. So even the exscuse is itself is horrible and totally suable.

Is it a lie that you loose all signal when that corner is touched?
Is it a lie that apple is going to give a firmware update that will just show a good signal when there isn't one?

Dear Iphone users,
first of all i am not iphone users.
If you have fault free units, then its very nice. if u dont have, but if u have no problems with it, really fine again.
What GSM people has written about the attitude.
There is no perfect phone. No company makes it. Some have hardware problems, some have software. Issue here is to accept it and if possible give solution to overcome it. Dont make excuses. That's what we want to see from REVOLUTIONARY COMPANY APPLE !!!!!!

Some people will defend their phone no matter how badly it treats them.
Just like spouses who stick with their abusive partners, they can be beaten to a pulp but will still stick with them, only those with common sense get away from it all.
Some people probably wont have problems with their phone and good for them.
Yes i have used many makes of phone including philips and sagems along with apple,nokia,sony ericsson,lg,motorola.

[deleted post]Gsmarena did the right thing.
They nailed out the truth.
Apple is a money oriented company.
They Rename existing feature and make a revolution ( a revolution indeed, because no other company renames )

This report reminds me of the day when the infamous BL-5C battery issue took place, where nokia replaced all batteries FOR FREE in a mass recall.
Also of the day when my 5800 was been criticized by sheeps for the infamous earpiece problem. The only difference is, Nokia took an honest step by accepting the flaw and actually replacing millions of earpieces FOR FREE. Then, it took around a year for coming up with various firmwares for bug fixes that it had.
All this brings me to a day where my 5800 is flawless and i dont have to DEFEND it. That's the difference between a money oriented and a people oriented company.
Hail Nokia!!!
