#8 iPhone 4 Antenna-2010

The phone can be called smart, but not that smart when its antenna isn’t powerful enough. The users delighted in holding the new set, but holding it on metal sides in two opposite places caused poor signal reception. When Steve Jobs got notification about it, he famously quoted “just avoid holding it that way.”

When the reality finally downed on Apple, they came up with a compensation tactic, every iPhone 4 user will get $15, along with a bumper for the device, nevertheless, the quality, Apple was famous for, is marred.
