Often times while designing iPhone related pieces, I’ve found myself needing a high resolution image of the iPhone. Unfortunately a quick Google search reveals that there aren’t any high quality images of the iPhone floating around on the internet.
As a result, I decided to recreate the iPhone in a completely resizable format for Photoshop. Admittedly it would’ve been smarter to do this in Illustrator, but since most of the time these designs are mocked up in Photoshop it works out well.
Ultimately, the outcome of this little experiment is a combination of quite a few shapes and layer styling that looks extremely realistic.
Some Notes on the File:
- The zip archive contains a psd format of the iPhone.
- The psd can be infinitely resized without a loss in quality as long as you check the “scale styles” property under image resize.
- All of the layers are completely editable–however it is not recommended that you touch any of the shapes within the speaker group or the bezel group.
- The files are published under creative commons and can be used both commercially and personally as long as this post is attributed in some way.
