iPhone 11 screen scratches VERY easily even for a small fall.

Purchased iPhone 11 on Jan 26, 2020. Accidentally dropped it on 28th February and my phone’s Screen got damaged in 2 places. It fell on road while I was getting out of my car. Media says this phone as the most durable phone Apple has ever made which I think is a BIG lie because mine got scratched so easily. Hope I could get a solution.

I have iphone 6/7/8 and any old $3 glass off the 'bay will do

With the 11 you need one from the Apple store for perfect fit to the non/flat screen. Cheap ones leave a halo round the edge

The gorilla glass is optimised for crack resistance not scratch resistance

Any drop is likely to do more damage and you were lucky. It will not be covered in warranty

I always fit a glass screen protector and a soft gel case

I kept my phone on top of a pair of scissors that was on the table by mistake and my tempered glass broke instantly. My phone fell when i was going to get a new protector. And yes it has a cover too. I have dropped my old iphone several times and nothing like this happened. Yes it did break but after several drops. Not in the first drop like iphone 11 !!

I went through other threads and almost all the people have faced similar problems where the screen has easily scratched [ex-scratched inside pocket] Disappointing!!! :(
