When was your iPhone 4 manufactured?

[RM350z]

32 GB Week 25

Yellow screen: NO

Grip of death: YES, but calls do not drop..... Only bars disappear

Battery Life: EXCELLENT! Love my iP4

 

[RobNor]

Week:23
No yellow screen
Yes reception isssues

I have at last managed to replicate this effect although it's not consistant.Sometimes 5 bars steadily drop to 1 or 2, sometimes 5 bars only drop to 3 or 4 evn though I am holding in the same position in exactly the same location.

A bumper does solve the problem

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.

I wonder if I could get it exchanged.

in your case I would let go for one pixel...

since you have no signal and yellow issues let it go...

Not really in percentage terms - just that most of the phones being reported are from week 25. I used the data from mykull's spreadsheet to pull this chart together (attached in this post - only including weeks with 5 or more phones reported).

MyKull - you can create this chart so that it updates dynamically on your spreadsheet with a pivot table/chart (if that option is available in google docs) - I didn't have access to modify to do it for you.

25th week for me

32 GB

Yes to reception but only in a not good reception area.
If in a good reception area it has no affect touching the phone.

Yellow..... Well if I compare my iphone 4 to my 3GS the screen has a more yellow or warm tint to it. The 3GS has more of a blueish white.
No blotches or streaks though.
Its sort of like the difference between halogen headlights and HID. halogen a more yellow light, HID a more pure white.

Not sure what to think about this. I am going to go and compare mine to some at the store in a week or so.

Here is a video comparison of the 3gs and iphone 4 that shows the color difference I am seeing.

So far so good - no dust, no yellow banding, no reception issues. Attempted to replicate the antennae issue, but haven't been able to. Keeping my fingers crossed though. Hope everyone who has issues with their phone is able to resolve them quickly. Good luck!

Cool! Thanks for sharing the chart. I should probably have done it as the thread starter. I guess I am lazy!

No worries. You can always edit the first post and update it.

Could be useful actually to have this data recorded and updated in a central place - also incorporating the data from the factory thread that has been running (by skycat561):

Or you could just enjoy the sunshine...
