iPhone 4 Torture Test!

Here we go again! The folks at SmartPhone Medic have got their hands on another piece of the next iPhone. The is basically the middle metal plate that will hold everything together. Oh and did I tell you that it looks exactly like the recently “lost” iPhone 4G prototype which was reviewed by Gizmodo? Check out the video after the break.




What we have here is the assembly of the new iPhone 4G LCD and digitizer onto the metal middle plate. As you can hear in the video, the metal middle plate is really metal. It has a nice weight in your hand and feels good. Check out the video and tell us what you think. As we continue to get more pieces of the iPhone 4G in we will upload them for your viewing pleasure.

And here is the video, showing iPhone 4G LCD, digitizer and the metal plate assembly.
