"In his research note with TF International Securities, Kuo says Apple will change its flagship ?iPhone? design "significantly" next year. Specifically, the new devices will feature a new metal frame with "a more complex segmentation design, new trenching and injection molding procedures, and sapphire or glass cover assembly to protect the trench injection molding structure."

"As shown in FIG. 6, mold assembly 600 may include a surface onto which transparent member 16 can placed. Surrounding that surface can be a groove or trench 610 into which the bulk-solidifying amorphous alloy material may be positioned to form a band around transparent member 16."
AND
"As shown in FIG. 7, the heated bulk-solidifying amorphous alloy band 12 can be positioned in groove or trench 610 and bent around transparent member 16 as shown by the direction of arrow A. Once completely surrounding transparent member 16, any excess band 12 can be cut and joined to the remainder of the band by further heating or using other conventional joining techniques to form a seamless bulk-solidifying amorphous alloy housing 12."

Seems like a match to me. BMG frame around a sapphire coated glass. BTW, this years IPhone Pro is so durable because it is Sapphire coated glass. Next step is to add BMG to it.
