Apple and the Videos
Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad" @ 09:30 AM
"Apple's iPhone 4 antenna page, which shows the great lengths the company goes to in order to test its handsets, no longer features videos of competing smartphones losing reception when held improperly."
The videos, while pulled from the Apple site showcasing the design and test labs, are still available on the YouTube channel for Apple. The video above is from the YouTube channel showing the signal degradation on a BlackBerry Bold 9700. Several smartphone makers weren't happy after the press conference on antenna issues, saying their smartphones didn't suffer from the same problem. Apple, in turn, posted several videos showing they did indeed have the same problem. Not sure why they pulled them from their design lab site, perhaps they felt they had made their point? What are your thoughts?
