GRID® 3G
The iPhone 3G launched on July 11, 2008, and it launched internationally. By the end of the year, it reached 70 countries.
Apple is known for its dedication to design, attention to detail, and for its apparent belief that its products are half device, half art. If you've ever felt similarly about that latter point, or had a desire to hang your iPhone on the wall
Grid Studio is a company that takes older technology — like iPhones — and frames them as art meant to be hung on your wall. However, Grid doesn't just pop an iPhone in the case and call it a day. Instead, the company dissects the device, breaking down and labeling each individual internal component like a specimen frame.
With Grid, you not only appreciate the design of a product, you see how each invisible piece of that product works (or worked) together.
Take the iPhone 3GS, for example. That's the Grid piece, . Back in 2009, most of us never really considered what was actually inside the smartphones we bought. After all, this was only the third iPhone ever
