Gee, so they had the problem and yet it didn't affect them because they didn't even notice til you had to replicate the problem. Seems their phone is working fine for them.
Honestly, a problem that doesn't pop up under normal use and you have to try to show the problem means maybe you should stop freaking out about it so badly as it obviously does not affect your friends.
For me, the other stuff the phone does so well is not worthy worrying about a problem that for me I really had to try to get it to show (and honeslty, I can't replicate it every single time) and has yet to even get my phone to lose connection (it at worst shows 0 bars but never searches for signal. And then sometimes it gets signal back while I'm replicating the issue). It's a small corner you have to avoid so while it's annoying, it's not bad enough for me to say the phone isn't worth it. Now if you couldn't hold an entire side, that would be more worth worrying to me.
I mean, I'm sure there is always going to be something you don't like about whatever you get (my old phone it was the camera). You just have to decide if that is important enough to shadow what you like (or if what you like is good enough to shadow over what you don't like).
Um, isn't that bit of an exageration? It can make the call fine. Even if you have the mistake and it seems easy to replicate, it's easy to avoid by either a case or holding the phone slightly different.
Honestly, yeah, it's an issue. But this is what I object to, people exagerating it to make it sound like the phone can't make a call. And even if you replicate the problem easily (I can't), there are ways around it so it's not like it can't make the call. It's like it's more inconvenient to use to make a call.
