Is this problem worthy of all the press it&#8217;s getting?<\/p>\n<h2>OWC Mike H.&#8217;s \u00a0take:<\/h2>\n<p>This has gotten way outta control. The antenna issue is real and exists, but it does not mean the phone is defective. Yes, if you\u2019re in certain weak signal areas you can most easily replicate the issue by touching the black line on the left side and wait for the bars to reduce; sometimes you need to wait 30 seconds until the signal begins to drop.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, some people actually hold the phone that way, but real-world usage by each iPhone 4 user obviously hasn\u2019t yielded much concern. Otherwise, we\u2019d be reading articles like \u201c25% of iPhone 4s Purchased Returned\u201d, but there are no reports of a heavy return rate; in fact, reports are quite the contrary.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->Why? Because the iPhone 4, despite that single antenna issue, is the absolute <em>best<\/em> initial-selling ever smartphone on the market. All non-iPhones are, quite frankly, knockoffs in my book. The proof\u2019s in the pudding; all other smartphones created are replicating the iPhone to get to where they\u2019re at today\u2014and many still don\u2019t even beat the original iPhone. Walking a mile in the shoes of others teaches you a few things, and as anybody who\u2019s skilled at debate knows, you need to actually try to understand where the other side is coming from. So in studying technology, I\u2019m not interested in any one brand, I\u2019m interested in the best product.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>So Called Experts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The so called experts out there report that it couldn\u2019t possibly be a software issue, it <em>has<\/em> to be hardware. Having followed Apple very closely since 1999, I know that Apple is a\u00a0software king. Over the last decade, a dysfunctional iPod manual button and various Airport reception in laptops have been fixed by an Apple Software Update, and in the case of iPods, software updates fix what otherwise looked like a hardware failure.<\/p>\n<p>Apple today released a software update that doesn\u2019t fix the antenna issue entirely, but it changes the way the signal bar measurement is performed. Whether it will prevent the phone from dropping signal altogether; time and usage will tell. We\u2019ll revisit this tomorrow.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Not Defective<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s not like the glass is falling off the iPhone 4, or cracking with the greatest of ease. I think we all need to simmer down and see what Apple says tomorrow. I\u2019d bet theres a fix\u00a0of some type\u2026be it software, free bumpers, a piece of tape, whatever. I don\u2019t think Jobs &amp; Co. would throw a press conference without a legitimate response. They know if they mess up the presser, the media hoopla surrounding this minor issue will just explode.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Personal Experience.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If I bridge the gap in the left bottom side, I can get my iPhone 4\u2019s bars to drop off. I\u2019ve used my iPhone 4 naked and with a case about 30% of the time. With either method, I\u2019ve had zero dropped calls in real world usage. (Real world usage being that I paid no attention to how I held or used). It has worked perfectly for me, even with the issue. In fact, the antenna has been crazy good at picking up a signal and staying fast with the data even in locations with 2 bars of service.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Breathe&#8230; Inhale&#8230; Exhale&#8230;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The iPhone 4 is not 100% perfect&#8230; not much in the world could be held to that standard. The fact that the conversation is about a single issue speaks volumes to the quality of product Apple has been able to maintain. As an aside, the 3Gs is now a mere $99, too, and still a very high-quality iPhone in its own right.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Consumer Reports<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>How reputable can Consumer Reports be when their own \u201cindependent testing labs\u201d made the iPhone 4 the #1 smartphone in their shootout, but didn\u2019t find\/know the issue until the media began reporting it heavily; their flip-flopping doesn\u2019t add to their credibility, but it did get the &#8220;Consumer Reports&#8221; name in the press. If you follow the money, subscriptions and donations is how Consumer Reports stays afloat, so kudos to them for being able to take advantage of the issue to gain some quick PR.<\/p>\n<p>Consumer Reports may need to call a their own press conference and do some damage control of their own as the comments on many a news article concerning them have been none to kind. I would have a completely different opinion if their initial review was to not recommend.<\/p>\n<p>If the iPhone 4\u2019s antenna concerns are enough of a major issue for you to not purchase one, please leave a comment and keep the conversation spirited but respectful.<\/p>\n<h2>OWC Grant\u2019s Take:<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s say I\u2019ve been in the tech industry with enough history to have met and talked with Steve when he was with NeXT, thrown Frisbees through Apple\u2019s booth with great malicious glee at Boston AppleFest in the 80\u2019s (for some principled reasons), watched the masses arriving from CES to see the first iPhone, and I don\u2019t have an Apple logo anywhere on my body or personal possessions. You could say that I have a like\/dislike relationship with the company as a singular entity.<\/p>\n<p>But when I started reading articles titled, \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ecommercetimes.com\/rsstory\/70410.html?&amp;wlc=1279214555\">Is Apple The New Toyota?<\/a>\u201d, my blood began to boil. While I contemplated\u00a0this morning how many pundits would come up with the same unique thought while learning of Apple\u2019s \u201cunheard of\u201d (said in a dramatic voice) Friday date press conference, I vowed that <em>I<\/em> never would utter it.<\/p>\n<p>To pose such a question publicly is to lose sight of some simple truths:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The iPhone 4 signal bars and\/or dropped calls don&#8217;t present a dangerous situation.<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s the first generation, new design of a technical device, not a re-sheet metaled shell of last year\u2019s model.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Unless you\u2019ve worked in the consumer electronics industry, you are simply delusional if you think <em>every<\/em> product by <em>every<\/em> company (even those as great and powerful as Apple) is going to be perfect right from the jump. I\u2019ve seen some of the best engineers in the world miss some simple operating environment conditions that, after further review, seemed like \u201cduh!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I hate to burst the bubble of infallibility that some have cloaked them in, but Apple, just like <em>every other<\/em> organization on this planet, is made up of internal and external people and processes. None of which\u2014regardless of Steve\u2019s fanatical attention to detail\u2014can be made 100% perfect. Apple didn\u2019t \u201chide\u201d anything\u2026 except maybe for their embarrassment.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s see what they say tomorrow before piling on with the disparaging comments and comparisons to other firms. And I\u2019ll close my thoughts with a reminder perhaps of why some of us from days past started to respect Apple:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>(from <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pirates_of_Silicon_Valley\">Pirates of Silicon Valley<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p><em>Steve realizes he has been outdone by Bill Gates and confronts him&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jobs:<\/strong> Bill, you know we&#8217;re better!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gates:<\/strong> Steve\u2026don&#8217;t you understand? That doesn&#8217;t matter\u2026.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>While a fictional interaction, deep down you know it could have very well occurred\u2026 and that at least Apple <em>tries<\/em> to be better. At the end of the day, isn\u2019t that effort in trying to be the best something we should admire and not disparage?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;ve been anywhere near a newspaper, television or computer lately, you&#8217;ve probably heard about the antenna defect in the iPhone 4 that causes it to lose signal when held in the hand.
