Apple has not yet acknowledged that there is a problem, nor has the company indicated that a fix is in the works. Today’s acknowledgement that there are complaints, however, is seemingly a rare departure for Apple, as the company often refuses to comment on such issues until and if it is ready to also announce a solution.
Earlier this month, Apple made the case that a spot on the iPhone 4 that can cause signal loss when touched is an issue shared by most, if not all smartphones. At the same time, the company offered customers a free bumper case that insulates the device from contact, thus eliminating the issue for the iPhone 4.
