Why is there an iPhone with the “design by apple...” and another one without it??
 
For the US model, all the regulatory markings have been removed from the back of the phone and added to Settings > General > Regulartory.

Notice how the markings on the one iPhone are NOT for US agencies or regulatory information.

Different country. US version has no markings. FCC was cool with it over here, EU over there, not so much.
 
It’s a governmental regulation to include that information. FCC recently passed regulation that will no longer require it to be imprinted
