Mine says 45!!!

Could this mean of 2009?!!

Week 45 hasent happend this year!!

And no i am not reading it wrong..... 4th and 5th digits.......

Any body else have a number this high?!!:eek:

That is crazy....maybe you got one of the first models that was made as a demo :confused::confused: any issues? what factory?
 
81025, so 25 for me.

Reception issues: slight, not too bad, but noticable if trying to make it happen. Bumper cures it though.
Yellow screen: not at all.
Wifi issues: sign is weaker where my iPod Touch(1G), 3GS and my wifes 3GS get full signal
 
32GB 25th week

Reception: No Issues

Yellowness: No Issues


I do have one dead pixel though...I didn't notice until my sister pointed it out. Damn her. :mad:

I wonder if I could get it exchanged.
 
25 32GB

No yellow, in between on reception. I can make it go down one or two bars but it doesn't get to the point of no service. I don't hold my phone there anyway so I'm not really concerned about it.

Nah they won't exchange it if it only has 1 dead pixel, think it needs to have at least 5
 
26th week for me. Guess I was lucky to get one, since that's this week if I counted correctly.

Reception: I can replicate the problem (so yes?), BUT I don't naturally hold the phone in a way that would cause it to be an issue for me.

Yellow: No
 
25th no yellowing.

Signal degradation if I use my phone without bumpers, but I do not. I am left handed.
 
Week 25

32GB, Black

Yellow screen: NO
Bad reception: NO

But my battery is not impressing me very much. I was hoping for twice the battery life that I am seeing.

No kidding.
The journalists are obviously just stroking Jobs' unit...

...the battery isn't any better than my 3GS was.
Major disappointment in that area.
 
Week 25

32GB, Black

Yellow screen: NO
Bad reception: NO

Really? I think the battery life is the best I've seen on an iPhone since the 2G, mine lost 17% battery in 6 hours and I for the whole of those 6 hours I was listening to podcasts and texting/browsing, now THAT is some amazing battery life right there, 3G and Wi-Fi were both turned on too, this thing reminds me of the iPad, the battery just seems to go on forever

Wow. You must have a good unit then.

My battery life is the same as the 3GS and nothing even REMOTELY close to "iPad like".

Maybe a software update will revive my spirits.

I think just like some of the other issues, it's hit or miss from one phone to the other. Just my opinion though

I suppose so, mine also doesn't have the screen problems or signal problems either so it looks like I got one from the good batch
 
Week 25 Black 32 GB

No yellow glue, reception issue if I really try and cover the black bar.

Seems to be a minor point for me... I have not dropped a call yet, nor have I suffered any poor call quality.
 
I am just curious how far we need to date back to find the week in which Apple started manufacturing iPhone 4...

The 4th and 5th digits of your serial number tell you the week number. For instance, mine says 22 (22nd week) - which translates to the week of May 23 - 29.

What's yours?

It may also be helpful if you could indicate whether or not you have (1) yellow screen issues and/or (2) reception issues. For mine:

Yellow screen: NO
Bad reception: NO

22

yellow screen - no
bad reception -no

battery life is also awesome. I have yet to charge it since the 23rd
