Simple illustration of major design flaw in new iPhone 4 antennas. Data-transfer completely shuts off when the two antennas are bridged, but instantly returns when unbridged.
I have reception issues too, good thing i use a case or i would care? about it
Dude you are freakin vice gripping that phone. You can see your hand shaking your squeezing it so hard. To fix this all you have to do is get a case if your a lefty or if your a righty and hold your phone differently either get? a case haha or just don’t hold it like that. I have my 2 pinked at the bottom and my 2 points at the top with my ring fingers basing the back and I have no reception problems.
Go? hold a car antenna, or a string antenna from your Sirus radio. ENOUGH SAID. Dumbasses
actually, some of the nokia phone is way more expensive than iphone. Having an iphone doesn’t mean you’re rich. it means u just want to be like everyone else that think they’re cool holding the Iphone. Too bad they aren’t.?
DUDE!!! NOBODY HOLDS A PHONE LIKE THAT!!!?
i’m using my iphone 4 with t-mobile. no reception issues.. someone told me its? because apple coated the antenna with a non conducting coating to help fix this issue.. must have worked.. unless it’s just ATT shit service as usual..
i can’t resist to say that with all that hand going up and down you’re basiclly masturbating your Iphone! u know? u love it ! 🙂
I dunno. Look around you. Now count how many iPhones you see. Now repeat your comment out loud? for all of them to hear you. Lol. This isn’t a major fuck up, it’s just blown up news that the media uses to make money off tards like you.
Even when I hold it that hard, I? could not produce the same results. Maybe I’m not holding it right? I think this whole thing is blown out of proportion. I lost 1 bar in the process and I think that was because it fluctuates between 3-5 bars in my room. So it went from 5 to 4, not so bad if you ask me. I was able to load webpages just as fast with a death grip.
For immediate release on the Apple Store :

how hard are you holding it, in every video i’ve seen, ppl hold it so? hard that it looks like it will brea! When i hold my iphone 4 that hard, it has problems, but when i hold like i usually do, i don’t have any problems!
piss off people who hate it , you actually had the effort to search apple sucks on the youtube bar cause your an poor asshole who lives in a council house buy a nokia you twats?
Apple is? just a retard
why? you are trying to convince them from the opposite? this is the problem against the fanboys haters….
Haha suckers, iphone is a banger. What sort of fanny would buy this major fuck? up!?! Only the fucking apple geeks, thats who! The type of people who would buy apple just to be in that club, fucking losers!!!
I? wonder why no one has tried holding a different phone in a stupid way to intentionally try reducing the service…hmm
and to this I say android. Even when you jailbreak? an iPhone all it really is, is a stock android phone. Root an android then you really have something.
i don’t understand people who’s commenting here, i mean that’s a normal way? to hold your Iphone/any phone in portrait view while browsing the net with your right hand.
so hold it the more efficient way!! Get over? yourself. Nothing is perfect.
so simple,dont hold the phone like a morron and? your good.
people are so gay
Jesus this is so embarrassing!?
is everybody in the world left handed? i dont hold the phone like that. majority of america? is right handed. Idk about everyone else but i have a life and dont sit here worrying about signal reception ona fcking phone
Well I am right handed and I use my right hand to operate. So it happens for right handed people. Even when you hold it in your right hand, your pinky or other fingers bridge the gap as well. When I had my iPhone I would just place it on my desk to use it and just use one hand to type whilst the other held the top? or bottom face of the unit.
ME!?
iPhone4 sucks.? Both mine and my wifes one had problems and then both replacements had problems which were unacceptable. Sometimes my sound would stop working for no reason and my wifes screen wouldn’t turn on even after restarting it. It really turned from an awesome anniversary gift to a shitty one. You’d expect you would get something good for how much it is hyped up to be.
Oh yeah and I also confirmed the antenna issue. I didn’t buy the cases, I thought Apple were jokers by that stage.
