I've had the iPhone 4 since iday. It is now sluggish as hell even after restoring to factory with no apps(aside from icafe). On my 3G and 3GS I could restore and things would get speedy again. WTF. I hate this phone more and more every day.

Cool, may your new Android device bring you eternal happiness

I'd grab a box of tissues and hit the Apple store, since your iPhone is still under warranty

Sounds like a possible appointment with a genius could be in order. They can at least run some diagnostics on it for you and see if it's a hardware issue. Worth a shot.

Yeah. Thats what I'm thinking. I wish Apple could make a phone that could withstand a full year of use. I mean, this thing is designed beautifully, but how the hell do they make money when everyone gets 3-4 replacements each year?

They refurbished them and give it to the other guy who's got issues.
But I would do what monkey said, I'm very happy with mine except a little laggy, not enough to make me drive all the way to the Apple store. I got bigger problems than multitasking not working properly

I've got a friend who works in the local Apple store and he said as far as he knows they are not refurbished. He said he's exchanged thousands of iPhones and they always have immaculate iPhones to give out. He's never found a scratch on any of them. The glass/plastic/metal is always 100% perfect. i mean, yes, they could take out the guts, and throw them in a completely new case, but the time/money probably wouldn't be completely worth it. The LCD is the most expensive part of the phone.

Dude, I don't think you UNDERSTAND who Che is. Once you do I think you'll understand.
Listen, no offense ok, but I'm not stupid nor I need anybody to tell me who Che was. I said don't take it to heart, there's plenty of communist in our world today under other party names and I don't see anybody complain.
I respect the person and for what he did who he was and what he wanted to do. Now let's move along we are not allowed to talk about that stuff in here.
Don't take it to heart once again, I'll chance it, but only to my convenience and not to orders of a person I've never met! Take care!
