Clearly you have been living under a rock. Yes, there were some complaints concerning reception in certain areas, depending on how you hold the phone. Truth be told, your antenna can loose power in certain occasions, but Apple offer customers a case that prevents this problem. The looks, the power and the capacity of the iPhone 4 are amazing and worth the wait for sure. Without a doubt there never was a more detailed, clear, or viewable screen on any mobile phone. Sit back and enjoy the ride.
