iPhone 4G issues – Reception

The essential design of the iPhone 4G is intended towards improving reception – as long as you don't do one thing. With your bare skin, touch the bottom-left corner of the iPhone 4G and reception goes out the window. The customer support individuals at Apple are just telling their customers that they "shouldn't hold the phone that way.” If you feel like you haven't spent enough money on your iPhone 4G, data plan, voice plan, and apps – you can buy a separate "bumper" or case. Either way, the iPhone 4G reception problems appear to be an Apple-admitted design flaw. There are some iPhone owners fixing the problem with tape, Styrofoam, or other homemade solutions.

Color difficulties with the iPhone 4G

There is nothing different within the tech behind a white and a black iPhone 4G, but Apple calls the delay "manufacturing issues.” There will be a few weeks or a lot more until a white iPhone 4G is available.

Ordering and delivery difficulties with the iPhone 4G

The iPhone 4G ordering is only barely working itself out. The iPhone 4G delivery had to be changed multiple times. First, the online AT and T store crashed. The Apple store also shut down orders to help try and fix the problem. Because of these issues, the delivery date was pushed back. Even with those "fixes" some customers were told they had not successfully ordered when they actually did.

Are there going to be a lot more difficulties with the iPhone 4G?

The iPhone 4G problems stem, partially, from the extreme demand for the device. The structural issues with the iPhone 4G just are not being fixed. Not having reception may be a good thing though — because AT and T’s new data plans are structured in a way that you’ll be able to download maybe 2 TV episodes before you go over data allowances for the month.
