iPhone 15 Screen Scratching Easily?

Should not have to use a screen protector! If so it would be the very first one I have ever needed.

15 Pro 1 tb… scuffed screen already. Not sure how, owned many iPhones prior without a scratch or scuff. Disappointed for sure.

I'm glad it's not in my head. I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max and a Pixel 8 and the iPhone is scratched up like crazy. I carry them together all the time and the Pixel is just fine...

That’s truly amazing, because the iPhone 15 has identical glass to the past 4 models.

I have my 15 pro for my 2 days and playing a game in landscape mode, I noticed scratches where my thumbs were. I have usually put a screen protector on but it hasn't come in the mail yet.

I was told the price for a new screen just got off phone with Apple Support. So in other words its our own fault for choosing iPhone 15..

I’ve had my new 15 Pro for 24 hours. More scratches on the glass now than I had in three years on my 12! Something is really wrong. I might just return it.

I agree there is something wrong here. So unlike Apple not to be looking into this.

How old was your last Android phone?

Note many Galaxy phones come with a screen protector installed by default, and Apple chooses not to raise the price of their devices to preinstall a screen protector that may not have the features you want:

My iPhone 15 Pro has multiple scratches on the screen. Deep scratches that the fingernail can snag within one month!!! I've never dropped it, barely do anything but set it up on a table. What happened?

The iPhone 11 Pro I just handed down has zero scratches after months without a "screen protector" ... why build a phone that requires a "screen protector" afterall?

I switch from the iPhone 12 Pro Max to the 15. My 12 Pro Max never had a screen protector and it doesn’t have a single scratch on it after all these years. I’ve had the 15 for a few weeks and it scratches so easily it beyond disconcerting. Screens are a balance between rigidity to protect from scratches and flexibility to protect from drops. This iPhone screen seems to have all the structural integrity of the infamous iPod nano screen.

Same here. Had my iPhone 12 pro for years with no screen protector and it still doesn’t have a single scratch on it. I have had this iPhone 15 for a month and I am extremely disappointed. It has so many small scratches on the screen already. The stupid Dynamic Island takes up more space than the notch and is useless or redundant most of the time. This phone costs over $1000 yet is a downgrade from previous models in just about every way. This will be my last iPhone. Very disappointed.

Yes🥲 ive had it for 3 weeks and its already got a noticeable scratch.. previously i had been using the iphone 12 mini for a few years without a screen protector without any issues with any scratches on my screen.. really disappointed. If u really want to change to an iphone 15 get a screen protector right away. And sadly apple care does not cover this as it does not affect the usage of the phone.

Couldn't agree more. Had my phone for 3 days and there is a scratch already, no drops, nothing. Can't even figure out where it could have happened.

12pro had barely noticeable scratches after 4 years and numerous drops.

There must be much cheaper quality glass used. Not acceptable for 1300 phone. I hope apple care will cover this.

I’ve had the same issue, definitely scratches easier than the earlier model’s. I choose not to have a screen protector or a case and find the phone much easier to handle. I drop the phone less without a case. As far as dropping it, I have dropped it a few times and once from 14ft off of a ladder thinking it was toast but no damage. The titanium case is very durable and probably saved the screen from cracking. I have a 15 pro max and like it other than the screen scratches easy.
