The iPhone signal bars, before and after

The iPhone signal bars, before and after The new iOS 4.0.1 has caused quite a stir across the web this morning, with many claiming that Apple has “finally fixed” the signal issues caused by the “death grip”. The only change we’ve seen is in the size of the bars, but we hope that later the Apple press conference will detail whether this is indeed a proper fix and not just a “resizing” of the bars.


To compare, we’ve got screenshots from the iPhone before (left) and after (right) the update..
