Got a new iPhone 4, good for you. Is the reception great, not really. So, how do you improve iPhone 4 reception? By holding the lower part of the phone you will gradually notice that the signal bars dropped from 5 to merely 1 bar. It happened whether or not you are talking on the phone or just hold it without calloing any number. I am guessing it depends on how close you are relative to the nearest cell tower. One thing that I notice is that the reception problem happens in open areas. When I am inside a building or house, there is no problem at all no matter how I hold the phone. Well, according to Apple, to improve iPhone 4 reception or prevent signal drops, you can simply avoid holding the low edge of the phone or buy a bumper ($29.99). Do you have iPhone 4 signal issue?
