It dropped a SINGLE bar.

This is disgustingly different from the iPhone 4.

Every phone loses signal when held by a human hand...the density and magnetic field of a person have to do with this I would think...but the iPhone4 would completely lose signal, I mean from full strength to minimal feedback...my HD7 only suffers from signal loss in my office, which I'm pretty sure is made of adamantium because nothing gets signal in there...everywhere else is just fine...

Default HD7 Signal issue.

I am having signal issue with HD7. I used the same sim card in HD2 and it showed full signal, but HD7 shows only 1 bar instead of 5 and some times doesnot show any signal.

Is that while you're holding it like the video shows? Because that's what this thread is about...if not, I'm pretty sure there might be different radios involved here, so maybe that could explain the signal drop...or maybe WP7 is actually more accurate in displaying the signal strength. I always realized that WM wasn't too accurate in that regard...

Looks like your issue is more to do with the Radio rather than the how you hold the phone.

Radio issues can be resolved with a Software update.
