#metal body

Photo from ZacksJerryRig Here's the video for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyP_cEpp2Zo As we already know, LG has shifted from having plastic phones to a more premium metal bodies. Although, as seen from the video above, the outer layer of the phone's "metal" body can be easily scraped off and has a multi-layer coating before exposing the main aluminum chassis beneath. As you know, primer is used to get paint to bond to aluminum, which is what we used for the G5's body. LM201b, unlike the aluminum used in other smartphones, is diecast unibody which makes it very sturdy while still maintaining lightweight properties. We figured out a way to integrate the antenna bands into the aluminum seamlessly so you can't feel the lines and covered the LM201b with primer and paint using a process called microdizing which means that tiny particles of metal are infused in the coating and bonded to the aluminum. I think it's incorrect to say that a product isn't all metal if paint is involved. That's like saying cars and airplanes aren't metal because they're also painted. For the record, even metal that's anodized will scratch off.
