Back of AT&T and Verizon iPhones

[JoeD_NYC]

Hi everyone!

I was looking at my iPhone today and while watching a review of a case on YouTube, I couldn't help but notice that the person's iPhone had a different back than the back of my iPhone. Turns out that on the Verizon iPhone, there is none of the legal information under the model number line on the back. Is anyone else noticing this?

Yes, there is a difference between the two..."The Verizon iPhone 4 lacks the regulatory labels that adorn the AT&T version. Gone are the FCC, non-recyclable battery, and European Conformity CE markings". Some say that this was Apples way of visually distinguishing each iPhone based entirely on the back, but who knows.
