The iPhone 4 faults just keep popping up. Latest in that regard is an issue surrounding the all important proximity sensor. It seems that the proximity sensor is having a hard time detecting a face coming near it for the purpose of turning off the display and disabling the touch-screen to prevent accidental inputs.

Surprisingly, the sensor is sometimes turning off the displays during the middle of the call whereas in other circumstances it is causing the user to unintentionally hit the mute button during the call causing disappointment and displeasure for the iPhone 4 loving nation. Are you experiencing this very issue? If Yes, you can get your faulty gadget replaced.

iPhone 4 was announced by Steve Jobs at the sensational WWDC event held on 7th June. The Apple CEO praised the design and engineering team for coming up with the slimmest smartphone. I wonder if Jobs is planning to take back his words.

It is worth mentioning that this is not the first issue that has been detected for the HD camcorder phone. iPhone 4 has already been found guilty of having a pretty weak glass as opposed to their claim, and the antenna flaw hasn’t made the life of an iPhone 4 user any easier.
