The iPhone 4's design is a dramatic departure from the aluminum and plastic drenched days that have plagued the iPhone in the past.

The rugged stainless steel bezels around the iPhone 4's perimeter double as both structural supports and antennas to boost reception.

Only time will tell if they absorb shock as poorly as the iPhone 3GS.

Shameless plug:
