JUNE 27, (PRINTWORDS NEWS)- “iPhone Death Grip’ has been the center of discussion for the past few hours where all i Phone 4 users have complained about frequent signal drops when they hold the phone in a certain manner. When asked about it, Apple boss Steve Jobs has snubbed down all such complaints and called the entire thing to be a “non-issue” and have asked the users to avoid holding the gadget in the very way. So what exactly is making the users fall a prey to “i-Phone Death Grip”? Well as it appears, the new iteration of iPhone is much slimmer than the iPhone 3Gs and has a larger battery which retains it’s juice for a longer duration. Now in order to slip in a large battery into a smaller phone, Apple has engineered both 3G and Wi-Fi antennas to be wrapped in a metal band around the phone. This particular design has encountered some problems with the signals which kept falling when the users hold the phone in their left ear.
Its been only 24 hours since Apple stores had witnessed people waiting in the line for several hours to get themselves the all new i-Phone 4. However, for some of the Apple fans the thrill and joy of holding iPhone 4 dried up within a few hours as they were the victims of “i Phone death grip”.
Way back in the year of 2007, Apple was forced to offer a credit of $100 to all early buyers of iPhone owing to the company’s decision to slash the prices for its 8GB model. Apple is, however, planning to release a firmware but the technologists believe that it’s a manufacturing defect which can’t be never be fixed by updating a firmware.
