This is an X-ray of a Casio Commando 2011 Verizon. It is the best built phone I have had to date. Notice the structural plastic frame surrounding it.

 Lastly an X-ray of a 2014 Nexus 7 Tablet. Notice the lack of a rigid frame, this is because manufacturers can sell more of a low-cost, high power device. The focus has moved from a well built device, to a cheaply made one with excessive computing power. Moore's Law in industrial design  is show below in the lack of surrounding structural support:
