Do you think that the differences between the white and black versions of the iPhone 4 are only limited to color, thickness and the location for the proximity sensor? Well, the situation is completely different, at least if we believe what was said by AppleInsider who quotes a blog from China who opened a white iPhone 4 terminal and found that there is a difference in the rear camera lens. According to that Chinese blog, the camera lens of the white version of the iPhone 4 was placed a little further inside the device. You can see the difference in the image above where we compare the cameras of the 2 devices.
The sensor has remained the same, so the quality will not be affected, but the lens has been moved and it is speculated that the reason is related to certain problems related to light leaks that appeared when pictures were taken. This theory was brought to our attention last year when the first rumors regarding the postponement of the release of the white iPhone 4 terminal appeared, and it seems that they are true. In practice, there should be no difference in terms of the quality of the pictures.
Between the 2 devices there is also a difference in terms of the proximity sensor, another source of rumors regarding the postponement of the launch. For now, those who opened the terminal could not say exactly what this difference is, but they claim that it exists. We will probably find out more information in the following days, as soon as iFixit and iFixyouri get to disassemble the devices.
