iPhone 5 Scratches?
A good amount of iPhone 5 early adopters took to the Internet over the weekend, reporting that their brand new iPhone 5 has scuffs and dings out of the box. Or, even if the phone was perfect out of the box, it did not stay that way for very long. It seems the black iPhone 5 shows scratches more easily than the white. Apple has yet to comment on the issue. — Techcrunch
If this is true, there are going to be quite a few peeved folks. I bought an unlocked BB curve and it didn’t have Gorilla Glass and I forgot one day and put the device in the same pocket as my car keys. Scrrrrrratch…right down the centre of the screen.
Yes, user error but at $450, it is a detail that the device manufacturer needs to think about. It was this issue alone that caused the original iPhone to get delayed by Steve Jobs.
People should not have to go the protective cover case route to cover their investment cost which can be anywhere from $450-$900 per unlocked device purchase. Even with a telecom subsidy, it is still money and there is nothing worse than seeing scratches days after purchase.
