iPhone 4的“天线门”

2010年

“辞旧迎新”似乎是iPhone 4的设计宗旨，它完全抛弃了以往机型的塑料材质，而是在机身前后采用玻璃，并在四周包裹不锈钢的框架。这个框架还充当了iPhone 4的天线，这种设计引发了争议，用户抱怨当他们手握手机的左下边缘时，手机信号会减弱。这次事件被称为“天线门”，它最终演变的结果是：苹果发布了软件更新以修正信号强度指示器；该公司甚至还向所有iPhone 4用户提供免费的保护套，它能盖住手机的天线并解决信号变弱的问题。

iPhone 4 'Antennagate'

• Year: 2010

"Out with the old, and in with the new" seemed the iPhone 4's design motto, ditching previous models' plastic entirely for a glass front and back, surrounded by a stainless steel frame. The frame also served as the 4's antenna, a design decision that raised controversy when users complained that signal strength weakened when they held the phone's lower-left edge. "Antennagate," as it was eventually called, became such an issue Apple released a software update correcting the signal strength indicator and even offered all iPhone 4 users free bumpers, a case that covered the phone's antenna and resolved the issue.
