Hey everyone, who has iPhone 4. Please check the first 5 digits of the serial number. I checked four iPhones 4 from the series 85039 and all of them have the manufacture defect like gap between metal and glass.

This gap means: Dust! Welcome! The Apple guy told me that the phone needs to be replaced.
If you see this issue in other series please post here the first 5 digits of the serial number. It helps for the future owners.

Can you guys actually see the gap with no magnification or are you using paper as a feeler gauge?

It's a conspiracy, they want you to buy more cases!

Of course the wiresless carriers will not do anything until they get an official word from Apple.
