Have you ever wondered why such a prototype of next iPhone 4G was found outside Apple premises? Why even the Apple engineers had to test prototypes (which would become the next fourth generation iPhone we know today) around the city, none have ever noticed anything strange? Simply because they were disguised.
Apple actually creates a number of prototypes of iPhone with different design models and hand over to some Apple employees for testing. The idevice must pass certain tests that would not be possible within the company premises such as antenna changes, called in various circumstances and so forth, in short, tests that require the real simulation in daily life.
The design of the fourth-generation iPhone appears to be completely different from what we have been seeing concept images of the iPhone until now. Apple cleverly disguised the next generation iPhone 4G / HD Prototype and it was nearly impossible for anyone to find what was hidden inside.

According to statements of Gizmodo, purported iPhone 4G prototype was enclosed inside the plastic cover to hide from prying eyes in such a way to resemble like an iPhone 3G. A very tactical maneuver carried out by Apple intelligence to confuse the public about the device and to allow different testers and all those who have a prototype to use the phone without attracting public attention.
As we can see from the pictures, the plastic case, which resembles like a 3GS, the side buttons of this prototype are made of plastic – the power button, the mute switch and the volume rocker while the corresponding parts on the iPhone 3GS are made of aluminum/metal. The case was ingeniously designed to protect future designs from prying eyes.
Different types of iPhone cases are available in market and for instance, if iPhone case doesn’t match up to the 3GS body, it can still be overlooked as “just another iPhone case”. This is the reason why people haven’t seen the next iPhone 4G / HD before Steve Jobs makes an announcement this summer: They’re in disguise.
