Yes it's an iPhone 4s
Accurate (maybe not for the continuity) from drawings
Had to remove my client name (shhh it's not apple ahaha)

Yes I even modelled the speakers, because MoI is so easy to use :D
As you can see in the last pictures, there's micro-fillets of 0.2mm everywhere (madness ? No... my client just need A4 prints also)

Some details, only the outside is modelled



Some test renders



Variable radius fillet for those two bottom parts


Some shader testing with a 4096px procedural texture on the gold (thanks C4D various noises)

Golden one for a golden Boy (or Girl) ;)

One thing to remember is that ALL Apple products have G3 continuity on all surfaces as a minimum. It is one thing that Jonathan Ive insists on.

So, for Apple product design, where you have a chamfer, you would then have to put a G3 fillet on each edge of the chamfer.

Correct! At Apple, the goal is to provide cushy product designs that wouldn't burden or cause harm to even the fairest of babies.

Real manly-men go for PC's with all-metal tank-like chassis. What would be the fun without sharp, RADAR-confusing flat surfaces and corners that will cut you as soon as look at you? (grunts and primal screams)

Be glad Apple doesn't make MoI - there would be no Michael to share thoughts with first of all, and you could not use Revolve or Flow unless you go to the App Store and cough up the coin.

A not-so-long time ago they where up to G5 !

A good non-technical article on curvature continuity here:

Hello,

A good video about continuity I found:
