Billy, 26 Jul 2010I am not apple user but go and discuss something else. This getting bored and pissed off discussion.Apple is keeping this going as it seems every few days, Apple releases video of another phone that loses signal bars. They are trying to deflect the fact that the iPhone 4 loses signal by simply touching the weak spot while in Apple's videos, they have to wrap the hand tightly around the other phones before they lose signal.

apple may have made the iPhone 4 so durable that even electronic signals cant pass through the metallic body :D

We all know that companies manufacturers of smart phones have to spend much more time in development of phones and * smart calls * to more money and at lower cost by winning more money faster without importing anything the quality of the components of phones is a nightmare for companies and lost money as Apple and Nokia Samsung Motorola and many more for his lack of responsibility in selling more rapidly at a lower cost and invest propagated by dorales million to a that the product is a garbage such as the Apple 4 g and the Nokia n97 Motorola MILESTONE XT720 or Samsung I5801 Galaxy Apollo without more to say

now it is clear. apple really has a problem. if you squeeze any phone on their antenna, (like the apple does on nokia) it WILL really loose a bar or bars of signal,, but if youre just going to hold it the right way it is not normal to loose 90 percent of signal and dropped a call,, here in the philippines a lot of city still doesent have a very good signal 3G still not a normal sight,, but phones still always picks up a signal and never drops a call,, even in rural areas,, vivaz gets a 3G sometimes and still can surf the net even in GPRS signal,, by the way,, when apple launch the first iphone,, a lot of buyers complained about signal reception,, its not new to apple,, but still they didn't learned..

From this you can see how low some company (or owner) can be to try bring others down to cover his (Steve Jobs) own ass.
I'm not pro to Apple and I did own a Iphone.
I just think what apple have done is wrong they simply ignore their own problem and created a massive negative impression.

Anonymous, 26 Jul 2010If apple lets the issue go then maybe it'll stopped being discussed.I agree. They should fix the problem. And everyone will forget about it. And not, keep rubbishing other brands.

how many more times will the iphone 4 be officially found to be faulty,apples has always been cheating its users but this new iphone is the most expensive con. no doubt steve 'give your money' jobs will feny these findings,and convince its mindless drones that its all a lie

Im the proud owner of a SE X10, and can confirm no signal issues at all as the German testers said. I actualy had a hard time trying to figure out where exactly the X10 antenna is,as no matter how i held it,it hardly affected signal,one bar dropped at most but then came back a second later.

iPhone4
"what's a measly 14 dB amoung friends. where all the same.."
smart phone
"we only loose 6 dB. you loose 20 dB and drop calls"
iPhone4
"all my users live next to cell towers thus they don't care"
smart phone
"good for you. please just stop calling of us the same"
iPhone 4
"I can say what I want"
smart phone
"sure you can. The sooner you stop talking about reception the sooner this will be over. please stop, it's embarasing when you speak"
iPhone 4
"everybody looses signal. were are all the same."
smart phone
"your a naughty child that will be punished"

Mitul, 26 Jul 2010Is samsung GT-i9000 Galaxy S has signal issue. Any one has seen this problem. Please share you... moreThe i9000 Galaxy S doesn't have any issues, ofcourse it might drop a few bars when held in a specific way what might happen to any phone, but the issue is only found on iPhones, they're the only ones who are problematic and need a special cover...

Finally an accurate and clear answer for all those who still have doubts: Apple failed because their iphone 4 HAS RECEPTION ISSUES. I think we can sum up that the phone does it's main purpose bad and we can end this. Period!
