Thats a sticker. laser would rip that phone in half. and im no pro but that would be a pretty hard spot for a laser to do its business.

lol, I just can't believe that it didn't destory the plastic on the phone. If it is real then thats cool but I still think its a sticker. LOL:p

Only things i know of getting laser etched are metals, hard plastic (Not little phone plastic), wood and w.e IDK.

Looks cool. and is that caption america? :confused:

laser etch?? i wonder if that constitutes modification of the physical phone and therefore voids your warranty?? Most likely... gj

A better idea would of been to ecth the back of the cover. Usually when they send you a new phone they ask you to keep the battery and back cover.

Why, you're not changing the internals or anything. It's kinda like putting a skin on your phone...just more permanent.

It was done with a laser. Lasers are used in many different applications from sigage to surgery. The product he showed is a laser used in the sign industry. I used to own one of those laser engravers when I had a sign company. The laser engraver is hooked up to a computer and using software the image is etchen onto almost any type of material you. It does not harm the item.
I think this shows great insight and will allow you to identify your phone if it is lost or stolen.
