Let me preface this by stating how much my wife and I love our iPhone 5s. We really, really do. When the iPhone 4 came out, the antenna issues never bothered us, and never affected us.
With the iPhone 5, though, just holding the phone absolutely normally (a regular cupping, not a I'm-trying-to-hold-it-at-a-ridiculous-angle death-grip) attenuates the WiFi and BT signal enormously. If I'm playing music over BT to my speaker dock 10 feet away, picking up my phone and holding it in my left hand while sending a text etc will usually end up in my music skipping.
Heck, even holding it will cause my wifi signal to drop noticeably. I can watch the bars drop.
This happens on both my and my wife's iPhone 5.
Maybe I missed the threads on this, but it seems like a pretty glaring issue to me. Any thoughts on this?
