The best way to tell by looking at the device if it is an iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS is to compare the GB capacity printing to the Apple logo on the back of the phone. The Apple logo is silver on both iPhones, but the printing below it varies. On the iPhone 3G, the printing below the Apple logo at the bottom of the backplate is grey – not shiny. On the iPhone 3GS, the printing below the Apple logo at the bottom of the backplate is metallic silver, and matches the hue of the Apple logo.
