"Oh well, so after I got the iPhone 4 finally I could use the phone for a whole day, but the Home button... It's not working, and everybody who had an iPhone 4 had or having this problem. So basically speaking 100% of the iPhone 4 yield was defective."
Too true. I bought a Nexus 4 because I had this problem, and the alternative was paying £100+ for Apple to fix my button. Surely the sole button on a device should work for the lifetime of the device?
- snowwrestler 14y agoMy employer issued dozens of iPhone 4's to employees and not a single one had problems with the home button. I don't have a problem with people complaining about products, but it's silly to try to generalize it to "everyone has this problem" based on personal experience. Apple sold tens of millions of units of the iPhone 4 in dozens of countries.
- firedev 14y agoOkay, maybe 90%, all my friends who had iPhone 4, and most of the people I see around with iPhone 4 have the problem. How can I tell? They have accessibility thing on the screen.
- jwpe 14y agoYou're completely right to say that we shouldn't generalize to every iPhone 4 based on personal experience. I was just confirming that my experience correlated with the description in the post. Obviously 'everybody who had an iPhone4 had or having this problem' is hyperbole, but it's probably evidence of a widespread issue if there are a large number of complaints about it.
