WTF! Some iPhone 4′s are Shipping with Wrong Volume Buttons [Video]

This is getting ridiculous. I cant believe we are seeing this with Apple’s flagship product.

If antenna or yellow spot screen discoloration issues were not enough, there are now reports of unhappy customers who have got new iPhone 4’s with flipped buttons for volume rocker.

And moreover, if you press the “-“ button, it will result in increasing of the volume while pressing “+” will result in volume getting quieter.

iPhone 4 Volume Rocker

Although it may not be that big a deal for many, yet this reverse function of the buttons on the phone is absurd at best, and speaks of some untidy work done by the workers in Shenzhen. Here is a video proof of this yet another blunder by Apple.

I cant believe these defective iPhone 4’s actually passed the QA test prior to being dispatched from China.

    @FickAufAggro he/she did not pressed the high button. It may look as though they did but I think they were just reposition the finger. Watch it again.

  • skymitch89

    i could understand if the buttons are labeled wrong, but other than that everything seems to be working just fine.

  • jackbigboss22

    we need a close up here!

  • evanlava

    the low on “-” is decresing it and the high “+” makes it go up, wtf, that 100% correct,

  • TryMyMartini

    This video doesn’t really accurately show the issue. If it were to zoom in on the controls you would realize that the plus and minus buttons are reversed. Without that close up, everything seems to be in perfect working order.Unfortunately, the two top rated comments don’t seem to have a clue what’s going on here. =]

  • TheiPhoneGuyHD

    I don’t get this. The lower one is supposed to be decreasing the volume and the higher one is supposed to increase the volume. What the hell is this?

  • firmware3

    everybody wants to show that iphone 4 has problembut here everything is fine

  • halferuga

    LISTEN HERE PEOPLE! The video was attached with the picture of a higher button with “-” sign on it and lower button with “+” sign on it. So this video showed that, though the buttons are misplaced they work like they’re supposed to

    half of the people from here has an iphone, so shut the fuck off. if there you are stupids, and buy apple shits then go. You have no ideea that MANY features from ipone 4 was existing from symbian 6 (was released around 2001), and there you are happy that apple is offering you now. of course, we don’t must forget the price wich is double
