What’s more of a shame is that it seems Apple knew about some of these issues already, such as the problem with reception. Making steps to refund cases wont make up for the lack of function over form.

If a brand new company brought out a product and then told you needed to pay a further £25 to make it work properly, you wouldn’t bother. But Apple have created such a loyal following that people may just put up with what issues there are for the sake of owning the latest Apple product. Personally, I’d be happier with an older iPhone – at least then the issues are all ironed out.

However, it’s also interesting to see how much excitement new technologies can bring. New technology and innovation is important for new business, illustrated by entrepreneurship grants and new business competitions like http://www.ukesnc.com.

Guess it’s not all bad!
