iPhone 3GS facing antenna issues like the iPhone 4?
20 Jul
With the recent hype of the iPhone 4 release in the US market. There were various problems being faced by users around the world. One of the biggest or well known problems is the antenna problem where signal bar will drop when you hold the iPhone a certain way. Well, there have been a debate on if people should buy the phone or wait for the next refresh or put a bumper and leave with it.
A few days back, Apple demonstrate a couple of smart phones like the BlackBerry 9700, HTC Droid as well as the Omnia II by Samsung. Well, I am not going to talk about any of this 3 brand as I don’t have the phone with me do to a proper test.
As you all know there is also a demonstration regarding the 3GS signal drop and I decided to try it out. As you all know the antenna on the 3GS is right behind(text area). Here is a video of my test:
So what do you think? There are many 3GS users who said that the iPhone 4 is facing antenna problems and their 3GS is not. Well, I think most of them does not know that their 3GS has the antenna problem as well as contemplating that they will wait for the next refresh.
I think that if you really want it, go for it. Don’t make the antenna issue a problem for you. Well, everything you buy in this world has a problem. It is just a matter on how you see it. Why do people still buy the iPhone 3GS when the phone face the same antenna issue?
i haven't had a problem with mine so far. if you hold it a certain way, you can see the signal drop but i have yet to have a drop call. it is definitely worth it!
That is great. Well, I have touched/played with the phone and the signal/call does not drop as I expected. Hoping to get one unit soon for zizi
