iPhone 13 Pro Max micro scratch on screen

Hello,


I've got a random micro scratch on my iPhone 13 Pro Max screen and I've only had it for 3 weeks. I'm totally confused as to where it came from as the phone has always been by my bed side and I haven't actually taken it out or used it much yet.


Anyways I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to fix this? It's very odd.


The scratch is only visible when the screen is turned off and you tilt it at an angle; so you are unable to see it at all when the screen is awake.


See picture attached.


Kind regards,

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

I have owned several iPhones since the iPhone 2. This is the only version that these scratches appear on. The new "surgical grade" screens, while supposedly tougher (I haven't put that to the test yet), scratch much more easily. If the screens are so flawed that they need a protector, it should come with one, rather than asking customers who have paid £1,000 for a phone to stump up an additional £50 to avoid something that shouldn't happen in the first place.
