Apple squeezes the reception out of Nokia N97 mini

21 July, 2010
Apple seem keen to prove other smartphones have the same reception attenuation as the iPhone 4. And they are getting back with a video of Nokia N97 mini that suffers from the same grip of death as the iPhone...

        Why can't Steve Jobs admit it that it is their own design problem? I am not getting an iphone4 this time round. I will settle for an Android phone.

            They stuffed up the design and move on! Apple should really build a bridge and get over it!

              " No other phone has ever sold more phones in the first week of release in fact the Iphone 4 actually broke the record set by the 3GS. Until the day another phone out sells the Iphone, it shall reign supreme. "

              -->so what? stop saying this BS coz quantity doesn't mean a good phone. i gez there are 3M iPay4 users out there who are upset and ashamed....

                  apple had rotten to its core by doing such wicked things to other phone manufacturer. Why not just admit their own flaws in design.

                    Why don't just hold it by closing the entire front portion of the phone? Then it becomes the design flaw for the mic as well...Haha!

                      Many peoples are arguing that Apple is showing truth, N97mini also drop bars.. But my friends, apple is not showing the whole truth. First Truth is in this video the way they grip phone, no one hold phone in same way. And second truth is the signal shown in video is on 3.5G which is weak compare to 2G or even 3G. Two remaining bars on 3.5G is comparable to 80% bars on 2G, means you can still make a call. Clearly Nokia is winner here..

                        I think most touchscreens behave like this, whenever you hold the bottom part of the Phone the signal lessen. I tried with my BB Storm but so far didn't get dropped call yet.

                                    I Cant Believe Apple did that Assaulting Nokia About the signal on N97 Mini. Seriously WTF is Wrong with u Apple. So u Mess up and ask why we are not looking at other Cellphone makers about the same mistake. You are the One Showing off ur latest Product and Quoting "This Changes Everything.Again" but when it messes up u say why are you not looking at other devices what happen to this changes everything crap. Seriously Grow up Steve Jobs. and as of Accusing Nokia is not perfect either i Had Nokia N97 For a Year and i traveled Nationwide with my N97 and Guess What Not even a single Dropped call full Signal no matter how i hold it and Whenever i had 3G Coverage used video call feature on it and not like iPhone 4, Which needs Wifi to make video calls. And One More Thing i am With T-Mobile. Maybe that's the Reason why i didnt had a single dropped calls and full signal. and as of Antenna of iPhone Thats What You Get For Copying off of Nokia.

                                        I have a Nokia phone e71 gsm and it's AT&T. I rarely get low signal because most of the time it turns to edge or 2.5 if i could not get 3.5g.
