Following up on a previous post I wrote, I’ve found that in using one of the cases that the O2 shop recommended, I now have a VERY scratched iPhone! GROWL!
So I’m throwing it out there – who’s got a similarly marked phone? I can’t believe the materials are that susceptible to scratching, yet what was supposed to be a PROTECTIVE case seems to have really done a job on the iPhone.
My scratch areas are as follows:
- #1: the top corner, on the back, near the camera
- #2: all along the top metal bezel
The scratches are of an abrasive type (like it’s been rubbed by sandpaper), not deep “drop-impact” scratches, just in case you were wondering!
It’s funny, because a friend of mine said “mind out for the cases, some of the them can damage the phone” – wish I’d listened harder now!
The irony, again, is that the cases are supposed to be protecting the device – not damaging it! Who else out got a “customised” device, just not in the way they were expecting!!!?

He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
