“Let’s start with the screen, which Apple has branded a ‘Retina Display.’ It’s the most crisp display I’ve ever seen. Reading books via the newly launched iBooks app is stunning,” Morris reports. “The most marketable feature is FaceTime, which is what Apple is calling the new video call feature. Sure, others have tried to do video calling and have succeeded, but it’s never been this easy to do.”
Morris reports, “What about the biggest complaint of all? You know what I’m talking about — dropping all those AT&T calls. Well, Apple redesigned the phone so that the antenna is built into the stainless steel body. Does it work? In the dozen or so calls I made with the phone in New York City, both indoors and outside, I didn’t drop any calls. That’s a huge improvement. I had trouble connecting on at least three occasions and that may have been typical New York City cell traffic. The real test will come with long-term use.”
“Speaking of design, the form factor of this phone is super thin and incredibly solid,” Morris reports. “It makes my current iPhone 3GS look bloated and old. The new Droid X looks like it was designed by a committee that couldn’t decide on one design — so they combined two of them. Everything about the build of this phone feels solid — even the stainless steel buttons.”
Morris reports, “A remarkable display, beautiful hardware and intelligently designed software all add up to now make iPhone 4 the phone to beat.”

Lies!
“I had trouble connecting on at least three occasions and that may have been typical New York City cell traffic.”
Yes, typical for iPhone users. Wonder why.

Please stop spreading FoxFUD. When they tell the truth it confuses people as to when to distrust them.
Sorry TowerTone, it is not “Lies” it is nightmares, blood bath or tsunami!
The new iPhone must suck then…. Fox News rarely reports the true facts.
Fox News – We Deceive. You Believe.™
As usual Fox right on the money…
So much fun!
Wow. The reaction time of the liberals here is getting better and better. I thought it would take at least 30 minutes for the knee-jerk reaction to the term “Fox News” to occur.
Hey, MDN – try posting something with the words “Glenn Beck,” “Sean Hannity,” “Marc Levin,” or “Michael Savage” in the title. Maybe we can get their reaction time down to milliseconds.
I suspect all these spoilers about yellow spots and phones cutting out will prove to be trumped-up – and fade away once people get the phones into wide circulation.
The widespread and unsupported rumours are so well orchestrated, and amazingly fast, they “smell”. They smell Bad. Some people are obviously so worried about the devastating effect the 4 could have on their business, they will go to any extreme of deviousness to damage the launch.
OK so I wated in line 4 for days. Didn’t bathe, ate and couldn’t really sleep. Usually masturbate at night so none of that. Finally today came soon as I touched my new Iphone I nutted. That should explain a lot. Enjoy it
Excellent review. As a proud owner of the new iPhone, I can attest to the truthfulness concerning the new features and user experience of the review. Nope, no problem with either the screen or the signal reception here. I have not paid much attention to the new droid phones, especially the droid x, so it’s nice to know the new iPhone beats them all.
Fair and Balanced wins out again!
“Fair and Balanced” loves Apple, so they must be Good Guys. And Fair and balanced. Of course, the NY Times also loved the iPhone. Actually, David Pogue, the writer did. I would hope that this is the same case regarding the “Fox news” review- not endorsed by an organization or political agenda, but an individual doing his or her job. I would like to think that just as other NY Times writers could disagree with David Pogue, other Fox writers could have varying opinions.
AAPL stocks are sure to go up to $401 bucks in 2011, period!!!!
Demand is very high for Apple products.
All American USA computer = Apple !
MDN has successfully trained its readers to look for politically charged context in most articles now, even where there is none. I’m sure the readers with liberal views are getting more and more annoyed that MDN seems to be quoting only FOX news for reviews of Apple products, and not whatever is the liberal equivalent (MSNBC? NY Times? I don’t know). The point, though, is that the percentage of stories (or MDN takes) that are chosen (or written) to obviously spike political slug fest has risen dramatically in recent months. At this point, even innocuous reviews, such as this one, with zero political slant, provide click bait for such shouting matches just by virtue of a vague association.
Well done, MDN… And folks, feel free to slug it out, MDN obviously loves your eyeballs.
… can it be true? I mean … sure, it says nice things about a product we support, which doesn’t mean those nice things weren’t paid for. Consider the source, for God’s sake!
@singidunum:
So true, and no opinions will be changed in any on-line “shouting match” in any event. About the only subject matter I can recall that gets the troops more upset here than “Fox” or “Obama” is the periodic “security through obscurity.”
@jaundiced. Don’t forget the Al Gore bait! Now you can get a slug-fest from politics to environment to ….what? Now we’ll get the anti- and pro- poodle groups involved.
C’mon MDN. Enough with the politics. You don’t help your cause and you annoy clear thinking folks on both sides of the ‘debate’.
Here endeth the lesson!
I would say ignore FOX news, even if they are talking about Apple products.
How is it the best smartphone on the market if it plague with problems. Oh yeah “It Just Works”
From now on bing and decide. http://www.bing.com
@John Maloney, your post may be the funniest post I’ve ever read. I’ve been laughing for several minutes now. Well done!
Too you the haters of Fox News. STFU. Your constant whining and B*tch*ng is quite annoying, redundant and ridiculous. Everyone should realize that all US media channels suck. Which is why i refuse to watch them. They all suffer from the same flaws certain flaws more than others depending on the network. Also MDN does post reviews and statements from other network like MSN, CNBC and others. Its just the Foxnews articles appear to draw more attention, nonsense than the others.
