Antennagate goes on: it is Samsung's turn to speak

23 July, 2010
The story goes on. Samsung did say something about the Antennagate but their official statement on that matter never showed up. Up until now. Here it is. It just can't get any more official and clear than that! This is a...

        Can't really blame these companies for speaking up! But they need to. Apple will only realize their wrongdoing if people speak up!!!

            long live samsung droid phones! Steve Jobs needs to drink up iron rich multivitamins in order for his diminutive brain to work and doesn't makes him look frail.

                Anonymous, 23 Jul 2010Thousands of stupid bloggers who don't even own iPhone 4's.... moreWhy? Because they have the tenacity to charge $1000 for something, then say that all phones do it.

                It's not the fact that phones drop calls, it's the fact that this particular high-end phone has made it apparent. So what if other phones do it? I'd expect a phone that cost me over twice as much as other phones to actually do what it is supposed to do, and that is to keep a call.

                  Haven't you seen the Verizon tape that was a quick fix for the backs falling off Droids issue?

                  You can see it in the link I posted along with a Galaxy dropping bars when held in the hand.

                  How's Android 2.2 coming along?

                  The Nexus which is the only phone that supports the official release has been withdrawn from sale, so much for Adobecrap Flash 10.1, it only runs on the 3.3% of Android devices that have 2.2.

                  I guess it takes a while for phone makers and networks to load their release of the update with crapware.

                    If anyone do not get this, I hope my explanation is correct as what majority of us may thought or find it funny about Samsung galaxy S ads.

                    Basically they post a large text saying "Hellllo" with the four "l" symbolise as phone signal. As you can see the signal is rising instead of going down, Therefore Samsung phone will let you finish saying "Hello" without any dropped out. Unlike one phone when it is holded the "wrong way", you may not get to finish to say "Hello".

                      Nice commercial , i own a Galaxy S and love it but will this hurt Apple ? Nah...you will see @ the end of the year that the Iphone 4 was again the best selling handset of the year , Apple can do whatever they want they will sell still millions of it , cause the fanbase is really big and fans dont care about some mistakes in the design...

                        There were videos of phones dropping bars before the iPhone 4 was released.

                        Why was Apple singled out?

Samsung provide half of the world memory chips and so it is not a question of who need who, both of them are of equal importance but from research, Apple is not samsung no 1 customer, apple contribute to less than 2 percent of samsung sales last year. Hp and Sony is ahead of apple. Samsung is capabale of losing a 2 billion sales consider it is forecast to post a sales of $136 Billion this year on profit of $20 Billion. Take 2 Billion off from its sales is nothing.

                                    but Apple cant afford to lose its supplier as no one has the capability of Samsung to produce that much of chips.
