Apple gets all defensive, free iPhone 4 cases for everyone

16 July, 2010
Apple just finished off its press conference dedicated on the iPhone 4 reception issues leaving us quite puzzled, to say the least. At one point Steve Jobs was saying that every phone has a weak spot, then he...

    they needed money badly to make iPhone5. That why they are selling prototype iphone4 because they knew people will buy it even if it is not 100%, even when you are told to hold the phone the right way. All they have to do is to advertised as the best smart phone on earth.
    thank you

      Apple state the facts,it's nothing more than media over hyping, like
      Mel Gisbon's relationships talk to his ex.

            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 !!!!

                ne4. You do realise those phones need a death grip where as the iphone has a g spot that only needs a finger to spasm and drop dead! There is a difference. How many htc's have that problem compared to iphone4. All phones are affected by attention but not because of one finger.

                      I guess IPhone 4 owners do not have girl frineds, so they treat their IPhone 4 as their girl friends, and that's why eventhough the IPhone 4 has a major flaw, they do not like people commenting about it and instead they would try to portray it as the best PHONE in the World.

                      These people only carry the IPhone 4, for showing off that they are loyal to Apple, and they just use the IPhone 4 listing to music, come on people it has a retina display, which has he best clarity that the human eye can accept. Lol..

                      Anyways, people pls grow up, get real.

                      Nokia N8 Rocks.

                      Cheers!!

                                  Jorge Pereira, 17 Jul 2010"The .55% reception complaints are from iphone4 users.... moreHi! Another Portuguese user here. I got mine without contract through my contact in France and this crappy phone with SIM cards from the 3 principal operators (Optimus, Vodafone and Tmn) dropped calls. It´s the first product that i bought from apple and i swear to you that ill never get another one apple product during my lifetime.

                                  I don´t like Steve Jobs and apple, but they have some nice design products. They are very expensive but i decide to give it a try and see what happened. Sorry mate but apple is for shallow and narcissist people who don´t know what do with their money. I´ll try to convince some rich, retard spoiled brat 12-18 year boy to buy me this peace of sh@@.

                                  Now i understand why some many people around the world seems to hate steve jobs and apple. They are just a FRAUD! MANIPULATORS! The isheeps in this site remind of the twilight fans. They don´t care about quality, only care on their or IMAGE! This people are real zombies! I´ll try Xperia X10 and the Android World! Never had problems with Sony Ericsson mobile phones. That´s my call!

                                  It will be a step in the dark because most of time i used windows mobile OS. Windows 7 is not in the market yet so Android will be my bet. I hope am lucky this time. Let´s see. Best regards.

                                    "Apple wants its users happy and since everyone cries for free cases, they will give away free cases. But not because they've messed up, but only because "they loves their users".

                                    So tomorrow of people cry for FREE Apple IPhone4, Apple will then do charity and give FREE IPhone4 to people, b'coz Apple wants it's users to happy & very happy indeed.

                                    What a JOKE.

                                    Where are the freaking IFans, who would do anything to support Apple & Steve.

                                    Apple does not have the right to say that every phone has a weak spot, no one has had reception/ antenna issues on a Nokia/ SE/ Samsung/ HTC/ or the cheap Chinese phones. But IPhone is so amazing that you would have dropped calls.

                                    Dump the IPhone 4 and go in for the sophisticated Nokia N8.

                                    Cheers!!

I wonder if they actually did a proper UAT Testing on this, and if the bumper really is designed soley for the purpose of this signal issue, which should have been known right before because they did announce this "genuine" bumper right before the launch, and thats the first time ever for Apple to create a genuine rubber protector which in this case doesnt protect anything other than the antenna fix
