Yes, they all attenuate, but none EXCEPT THE APPLE short the antenna when used without a case.
Shorting the antennas together is the reason APPLE GOD STEVE JOBS said to give the masses free cases.
Get real.
Oh, one more funny tidbit about this. Consumer Reports may show that all attenuate, but THE APPLE IPHONE COULD NOT BE RECOMMENDED BECAUSE IT WAS SO BAD, even though the other phones attenuated as well.
That’s some pretty bad press. I wouldn’t be trumpeting this much.
One last thing: Your “bars of reception strength” have always been lies.
Those aren’t my words. Those are Apple’s.
Be sure to update your phone with Apple’s new “lower bars of reception” patch. Remember, they said they’ve ALWAYS made the bars look like your signal strength was better than it really was.
I cancelled my iPhone 4 order. I have had all models in the past. When asked if a software patch could fix the problem, Jobs played dumb, “How could a software patch fix something that every phone does.” NO, you are simply you are trying to draw attention away from YOUR crappy phone, Steve. Stop being such an arrogant jerk.

John Gruber is AWESOME!
But I love the kicker... all the CR info is hidden behind a firewall for members only.
All... except...
All... EXCEPT...
Apple.
No, that one they issue press releases regarding, while not only remaining silent on the others but actively suppressing the information.
