They&#8217;re promising a software update will fix this, but as yet there&#8217;s no sign of an update being made available.<\/p>\n<p>The problem occurs when your hand makes contact with the black band that joins the two antennas on the bottom left corner of the phone. By fitting a case to your phone it puts a barrier between your hand and the phone and significantly reduces any signal loss.<\/p>\n<p>Apple are being unusually slow at getting a fix in place for this and are leaving thousands of disappointed users with a phone that is sometimes unusable.
