    Ok, can someone tell me how this is any different from a normal iPhone 4? (I don't have one to compare it to...)

    If it has no noticeable differences, than this is not news. If it still is news, can I take a picture of my laptop in poor light with a crappy camera, slap an obnoxious watermark on it, and send it in as the G5 Powerbook?

    C'mon, AI, you need a filter on this brain-mouth thing, or whatever counts as that for a news website.

    Journalism is dead.



    This is a really a rumor site, not a news site.If you want Apple news, try Cnet or Macworld.



    You are right: any bonehead could have cobbled up some bogus "engineering diagnostic" screen on Photoshop and copied it to their iPhone and taken a picture of it under crappy lighting.



    This photo reveals nothing.



    Let's not get into the retarded arguments that the alleged SIM tray is for LTE. This is a GSM/UTMS handset. LTE is not coming to the iPhone next year. Frankly, I don't think LTE will come to the iPhone before 2013. The next logical step for network support is HSPA+, not LTE (especially since there are few operational LTE networks outside of the U.S. at this time).



    The people who think this is a Verizon CDMA-LTE iPhone are nuts.

    I like the red lighting though. It's kinda artsy! Except for the bloody annoying watermark.

    Give up.



    The Emperor's clothes are always of the highest quality and taste on this forum. Sometimes the cloth used is so sheer and fine it almost doesn't seem to be there at all, but this is just another sign of the magnificence of the Emperor that he can afford such exquisite and expensive materials.

    Wow. I state a fact and instead of addressing the issue, sales figures are thrown in my face. When I hold the iPhone 4 while not in a case, I see a noticeable drop in signal strength, but hey million of people own one so who cares right? Apple is great and can do no wrong. Better?

    If you were responding to my post, I was actually agreeing with you.

    The "flaw" is so incredibly minor comared to the other improvements that most users actually get BETTER reception with the iPhone 4 than with earlier iPhone models and competing smart phones. Yes, I have done side by side tests, I didn't just read this on an Android forum. If you would rather have worse reception all the time rather than have to avoid the grip of death, go ahead and buy something else. The rest of the world has moved on, perhaps instead of throwing old non-news in everyone elses face, maybe you should move on as well.

    It is definitively bullshit.

    This explains why:

    You people are still around? 14 million iPhone 4s sold last quarter means that there is no Antennagate. Go away.
