iPhone 4 early shipments include some defective Retina displays

Not only is this story late but also, incorrect. While these problems exist, there is already a solution. Great job TUAW, keep up the great journalism.

Had that very issue even with my iPhone 3G.

My one yellow spot in the bottom left corner went away :-)

Here is one explanation: http://tinyurl.com/2coyt88

I received my iP4 today and after activating it noticed the yellow spot on bottom right hand corner and it stretches a little bit upwards. I only caught it when I was in settings on the white background. Not sure if I will swap it out, I am trying to not let it bother me... we will see!

Ok. This is interesting - I had yellow splotches, one of them very noticeable. Just now my phone slipped of the arm of my sofa and landed face down on a wood floor. The splotches that were once very visible are now extremely light and almost un-noticeable. Guess we all need to start smacking our phones face down on a smooth surface :-) Hope they are still visible enough to get my replacement on Friday.

I ordered from AT&T, one for me and 1 for my wife. my 32GB just won't work. it keeps looping and shut down by itself, I can't even get to the activation screen. I am going to Apple tomorrow, hopefully they can do a swap for me or something.

Received my ip4 this afternoon, opened up and activated via premier customer site, connected to to itunes, and registered all within 5 minutes. Retina screen is AMAZING, it's much more than I expected.

The only drawback I have right now is the AT&T signal is much weaker for my device than my 3G is in my own house. I could use it in the basement without issue. ip4 simply has no bars or no service.

Ground level AT&T reception is 3 bars...and the design with an antenna around the entire frame was to improve reception - I'm second guessing.

Over all, this is a rockin fast phone with a design unparalleled to anything on the market.

Mine has the spots in the bottom corners, but it's such a minor discoloration that I don't mind waiting a few weeks till all the commotion at the Apple store has died down before going in to get a replacement.

I got this problem at the bottom left corner and slightly less noticeable on the top left corner. Test the screen using a flashlight app. Trip to the Genius Bar next week.

No problems here, thank god, I think I would have cried.
