hey i was wondering if the iphone 4 is made out of metal? like if i go through a metal detector will my iphone 4 ring? i heard that it doesnt but i have doubts about that. again, the question is if i have my iphone 4 in my pocket, and go through a metal detector, will the metal detector ring?
thanks
 
The front and back of the phone are glass. The front of the phone screws into the rest of the phone with a metal frame. the "ring" of the phone is made out of steel so yes IT WILL be picked up in a metal detector just put it in the bin and pass it through the Xray machine or whatever. There are also many metal screws inside of the phone..

I see. So it will be picked up by a metal detector? Even a school one?
