When it comes to the new iphone 4, which has been heated discussed is the understanding attenuation and signal loss. We can’t make sure whether it is due to the technology quality or not. But personally to say, iphone 4 is more perfect that Droid X. If I have the chance, I will take my iphone 4 home. Here is Apple’s view: “Every smartphone has a cellular antenna. And nearly every smartphone can lose signal strength if you hold it in a certain way. To demonstrate this, we tested iPhone 4 alongside other smartphones.”

Yes, ther did. Following is the test.

Motorola Droid X

In our tests, the Motorola Droid X dropped from 3 bars to 0 bars when held in a way that attenuated the signal.
