Well, I have been doing some testing of My Brand new Iphone 4, My 32GB 3GS I bought in September and my Sisters brand new 8GB 3GS that arrived today.
Iphone 4 -
At home - Out of all areas I tested this has the best signal when not held - when held in left hand drops all the way to NO SERVICE
In Town - Signal is worse then at home / 3G is slow - NO reception issue when holding phone the 'wrong' way
Iphone 3GS 32GB iOS4- No reception issues at home or in town
Iphone 3GS 8GB iOS4- When held in left hand has 'Exactly' the same reception issues as my Iphone 4!!! drops all the way to 0 bars Weird?
Everyone keeps saying it is probably to do with bas signal areas, yet I get the reception issue at home and not in town and I get better 3G reception at Home.
Also the new 3GS 8GB that got released same time as Iphone 4 has the exact issue the Iphone 4 has, but my old 3GS does not. Maybe they are using new parts that are having problems?
