iPhone 14 Modded With Transparent Back Glass Panel to Reveal Internal Parts

Hang on…how does the phone know you’ve changed the back cover? Surely they haven’t serialised those??

From the article:

"Apple requires technicians to complete "System Configuration" after replacing the back glass on iPhone 14 models" and "It's not clear yet what happens if this software calibration process is avoided — possibilities could range from a simple non-genuine part warning in iOS to functionality like wireless charging being impacted".

Edit: right, good point. What is used to trigger removal of the back cover!?

Modded must be what the cool kids say, instead of modified...

 

[klasma]

Apple should be offering this as an option.

They could call it Space Clear. Or Nu Clear.

iKlear. No wait, that's taken (just bought some too).

iSee...perhaps...maybe

Now we can see it is exactly the same as the 12 and 13.

 

[DarthDon]

it actually looks great.

I wonder if this was achieved by just removing paint (?) from the original glass back.

appears, with the camera area being frosted, that it's a standalone part

Love the full exposure of the internals. Why does this look so appealing?

because you have great taste!

Met a new lady a few weeks ago. She just undressed in front of me for the 1st time, and I'll admit I'm struggling with her appearance a little!

Hey that's Trans Lucy. She looks different now, all skin and bones. Fair warning though she's been around, I could see right through her back then. But you know what "they" say... beauty is only skin deep.

Yeah ... it's so lame when things look so ...

There's no accounting for taste!

You must be young. Transparent telephones were hot during the 1980s and 1990s.

This is just a modern take on an old idea. What's old is new again. 🤷‍♂️
