‘Antenna-gate’ Returns on Verizon iPhone

This article is about the new version of Verizon Wireless for the iphones. This new version contains a metal wraparound antenna, which was expected to attract the signal to the phone.

Many customers complained because they were losing signal while they were on the phone. This problem was caused because the antenna is in direct contact with the user’s hands, which changes the way the antenna behaves.

Although Verizon Wireless denied any kind of problem and said "We do know the product is performing well on our network" This antenna issue is a big disadvantage for Verizon Wireless.

They also tried to defend the reputation of the company by saying that the product has better performance in major cities.

The company has sold many iphones, until now the new product has been a success for the company. But if this antenna issue results true, the Verizon Wireless will have potentially a lot to lose.
