iPhone 4G Parts Reveal That New Model is Taller?

Posted February 8, 2010 at 2:00pm by iClarified
iPhone repair site iResQ claims to have obtained parts for the fourth generation iPhone. Its unclear if these are authentic parts; however, you can find the pictures and their observations below.

1) The LCD appears to be factory glued to the digitizer which is more similar to the first generation iPhones than the iPhone 3G and 3GS. The digitizer can be separated from the LCD on the 3G and 3GS models, which should be interesting to all, but for the repair folks like us–this means that the 4G screen repair price will be higher since both parts will have to be replaced at once.

2) The iPhone 4G front panel seems to be about 1/4″ longer than its predecessors.


3) There is an interesting reflective, mirror-like surface directly above the speaker. This is likely a spot for the proximity sensor. If that’s what is is, it’s in a different location than previous models.

FAKE!!! Unless if the home button is now attached to the charger port... Any person who has done repairs knows that there is a frame between the digitize and the lcd that hold the home button, unless if they changed the design..

Its probably taller for 2 reason, Fit a bigger screen and to ensure enough room for a CDMA Antenna.

keep dreaming. Apple is Not going cdma. It's a dying technology and apple does not invest in dying technologies.

Hello. If you look at the last picture u can see that there is a hole instead of a reflective surface. May be the place for a front camera. At the upper right corner and left down corner u can see holes for screws. This is not very "apple iPhone"-ish. Maybe just some clone replacement part.

If apple dares to stick with the same look as all their other phones, I will definitely be moving to the HD2.
