    I mean probably the singular best model to date. When the retina screen dropped… wow. I miss Steve 🫶

      Good phone aside from “you’re holding it wrong”

        You know. That was a lot of nothing. My buddies BB did it. Worse. He dropped totally cupping his phone.

        But how Steve handled it was amazing. I was happy with my new phone. And free bumper. And not a dropped call.

        I think the scuffgate on the 5 was waaaaaayyy worse. Literally every phone they were cracking open had dings. Like bad ones. That kicked up a lot less dust than I felt it should

          It was not a “lot of nothing”. You’d literally lose service completely if you held the phone the way everyone holds a small phone. Your palm would bridge the two connections on the exterior antenna and there goes your signal.

          Instead of properly addressing the issue, Jobs instead blamed the customers for being normal people.

            I had a 4 in HS (and so did a couple of my friends) so maybe my baby kid hands didn’t have an issue with this but I don’t recall people having this concern?

              Might have to do with the fact that most people put a case on their phones, but I can assure you that it was a legit issue for the few who don’t. I remember it happening to my best friend’s phone.
