Apple hosting iPhone 4-related press event this Friday
So, it looks as though Apple are finally going to publicly address the iPhone 4's antenna hardware defect in a press event with selected journalists this Friday - but what is the outcome going to be? Personally, my money is on them rolling out Hypnotoad...
We never found too many signal issues with our own iPhone 4 test unit, but the sheer amount of complaints surrounding the infamous "reception problem" has evidently led Apple to host a sudden press event at their campus in California. It's unclear now just how many outlets have been invited, and there's no published agenda. The only thing that is certain is that the event will surround the iPhone 4. That's it. There's no proof that Apple will address the issue, offer free bumpers to all buyers in an effort to calm the pundits demanding a free solution, or even initiate a recall (highly unlikely).
But it's not hard to read between the lines here. Apple has been dealing with a constant flow of criticism ever since the iPhone 4 launched, and all of that came to a head in recent days with Consumer Reports removing their Recommendation to buy the iPhone 4 after being able to replicate the signal loss issues in their testing lab. In reality, nearly every cellphone can lose signal if held a certain way, but Apple's products are magnified. The good looks better, and the bad looks worse. It's just how it goes when you're Apple.
