Above Steve Jobs explaining just how to hold your Iphones.

The problem occurs when you grip the phone in your left hand covering the black strip. Apple’s iPhone 4 signal problems have been the source of a outpouring of complaints by iphone customers complaining of a faulty antenna and now Steve Jobs has broken the silence and come up with a solution without revealing the exact cause of this issue which is completely hardware related as i will be writing it in details in my next post. Are you getting poor iPhone 4 signal , then you’re holding it wrong, says Jobs.

    Actually you get a loss in signal if you hold the iPhone 4 in your right hand. I am right handed and frequently loose my signal and have dropped calls with or without the bumper on my iPhone 4. It really is a pain and ruins a fantastic product. It’s a real shame and demonstrates that Apple’s direction has clearly made a shift to asthetic design over user functionality.

    I still love Apple products but I am sorry to say that I will now be more scheptical about purchasing another Apple product in the future. The bumper solution was a nice (& costly) gesture by Apple but masks the true problem in the design which could have been a real innovation in mobile phone technology. It would have been better for Apple to have been more candid in their acknowledgement of this, and informed customers how they intended to rectify the problem. A product recall may not be even necessary if they come up with a solution to insulating the antenna that could have been applied to the phone by the user, or at an apple store, or included in their next batch of bumpers.

    From my experience the bumpers still does not insulate the antenna to a sufficent degree to prevent a loss of signal and indeed frequent drops in calls persist when the phone is handled. To simply imply that users are not gripping the phone correctly is quite insulting as the size of the product warrants users to grip the phone in a variety of ways when they hold the phone when making calls.

    It goes without saying that dropped calls may be due to other factors outside the control of Apple such as network provider issues, however the placing of the antenna and it’s lack of insulation during normal usage does not help.

    Not a happy customer :-(
