I was under the impression that left handed people naturally hold the phone in the problematic position? Is that not true? It's estimated 10% of people are left handed, that probably translates into about 10% of iPhone owners seeing as your handedness has little to do with your penchant for trendy gadgets.
- joeyh 16y agoI doubt that anyone holds their phone in only one hand, at all times. At least not anyone with two ears.
- bhousel 16y agoI do.. I'm half deaf in my right ear.
- sync 16y agoI'm left handed, own an iPhone4, and can only reproduce the issue if I try really hard. It's not at all a natural hold.
- thinkzig 16y agoI'm left handed and find it extremely awkward to hold the phone in a manner that would cause the problem. I understand that if you do hold the phone the "wrong" way then this would be a huge issue for you, but my gut still tells me that this isn't really such a big deal in terms of sheer numbers.
- jrockway 16y agoYeah, as long as some people aren't affected, it's ok. The people that have problems just haven't had enough Kool-Aid yet.
- BrandonM 16y agoI'm right handed and I've always held phones in my left hand. If other people hold the phone in the hand opposite their strong hand, that would raise the percentage affected by this issue, assuming your impression is correct.
