iPhone 4 plagued with problems already!
iPhone 4 is now reaching the smartphone enthusiasts who were longing for this movement from a long time. But the joy was short-lived for most of the users as there were reports of a number of problems with the iPhone 4. It might sound unreal, but iPhone 4 users are going red faced with anger over the issues that they have to face with their new Apple device. Here are some of the problems that Steve jobs has to sort out before iPhone 4 is deemed as a failed experiment.
# Reception issues
A bit startling, but it is true that your iPhone 4 has signal degradation issues especially when you cover the phone with you hand from the bottom left-hand corner. Even more surprising is the fact that it is not a software or post production issue but the bad placement of phone’s antenna. Apple’s answer to that, well you don’t keep hold your iPhone 4 in that way! The below screenshot of email response to a users query on this issue explains it all.

# Yellow bands and stains in the display
Another major hardware issue is the yellow discoloration in the display that is being explained by Apple support technicians as "residue" from binding the screen to the LCD. It has also been confirmed that the chemical should indeed evaporate after a few days. In other words, nothing to worry about until then, if you believe it!
# Rear-facing camera issue
People were all crazy about the video calling prospects of the iPhone 4 with a regular camera and a front-facing camera. Apparently some users have reported hardware issues with the rear-facing camera as sometimes it is not working at all! In the Apple discussions forum users have said that their iPhone’s shutter graphics just stays closed and buttons don’t work. This mostly happens when in use with camera app or any other app that uses the picture taking function. The only workaround at this point in time well, reset your phone by holding home and power buttons down for few seconds.
# iPhone 4 external casing is scratch prone
Apple has revamped the exteriors of its revolutionary smartphone with an aluminosilicate glass material that is 20 times stiffer and 30 times stronger than plastic. All that is good to shield the much important interiors and the display screen, but there is enough evidence that suggests, it is not scratch proof.
