Hi there.
I just wanted to say if anyone from Apple is out there, how disappointed I am with the iPhone 4.
The 3G coverage I get is abysmal. I get virtually no 3G connectivity at all, and I live in an area where it's supposed to be excellent. I said to my network provider (Vodafone) I may switch to another provider to get better 3G coverage, and they said they are aware this is a problem, it's not a Vodafone problem, but its an iPhone 4 problem. They said I'll find the same problem with other carriers on this phone if I chose to switch.
Battery life is so bad that it's barely comprehensible how a company the size of Apple could get it so wrong. 100% down to 5% with about 2 hours use (really). I know this sounds crazy, but it is true. I have fudged around with settings and it makes little difference. I shouldn't have to mess around with settings - this is a very expensive phone.
And Antennagate - I can (again really) go from 5 bars to disconnection in a regular and repeatable manner when I hold the hold the phone incorrectly. I just want to say that last bit again as it says allot about his phone in general - 'hold the hold the phone incorrectly'. It's crazy if you think about it.
Everything I have said is completely true and accurate, and could prove it should I wish.
I am sending the phone back as soon I've finished typing this message. I'm glad I got the phone contract over the Web, as it gives me this option.
All in all it has been a very negative experience, and is the total antithesis of everything I would expect from Apple.
Apple, you have got this product very wrong, and people can see it - they really can see it.
