iPhone 4 – To Buy or Not To Buy?
Many of our customers have been asking us a question that has been flooding the internet, “Should I buy the iPhone 4 or keep my current iPhone?”
Overall – we suggest holding off on purchasing the iPhone 4. Heres why.
First off let’s look at all the reported issues we are aware of:
1.screen discoloration, reversed volume buttons, stubborn cameras and scratched glass?
Yellow Blotches or Bars on the Screen
Do you want an LCD screen with blemishes, yellow spots or bars on the screen?
Rear-Facing Camera Doesn’t Work
To put it bluntly – many iPhone 4 users are complaining their rear camera simply does not work.
Volume Buttons Upside Down
Maybe a little trick Apple did to protect your hearing? Some users have experienced buttons that instead of turning the volume up, they turn the volume down and vice versa? Can you live with this?
Glass is Easily Scratched
Even though the iPhone 4 is supposed to have a stronger glass digitizer – we have seen a very high amount of glass repair orders for this device which has been in the market for less than a month!
And Last but not least
RECEPTION ISSUES
If all the above issues are not reason enough to steer away from the iPhone 4 purchase, then this should be the deal breaker.
Many iPhone 4 users have experienced reception issues while holding the iPhone 4 in the palm of their hand. Cnet.com has a full video review that shows exactly what happens when covering a certain area on the left hand side of the phone.
