Protection on Back of New iPhone

I am sure I am being completely stupid but i have just set up my new blue iPhone 15 and the back of it is white. I assume there is some sort of protective layer on it but I can’t work out how to remove it. I am frightened of being too rough with it in case I damage it! Can anyone tell me how it is removed?

iPhone 15, iOS 17
