Scuff on iphone 15 earpiece I have a iphone 15 that I bought almost two months ago. I noticed this scuff on the earpiece a few weeks after buying it. I contacted apple support and they might be able to fix it for me. If not, do you think there is any way to fix/hide the scuff? Maybe some aluminum polish or an earpiece-covered screen protector?

iPhone 14 Pro Silicone Case scratching easily Hi, I recently got a silicone case for my iPhone about like 2-3 weeks ago and it is already scratching. Around the first few days small scratches started to appear on the edges of the back of the case, and now there are more scratches around both front and back sides. I dropped my phone once, which was face down. it stayed protected, and no scratches appeared from the fall, but when the phone stays in my pocked ALL DAY, some magic scratch appears out of no where. I paid 50 DOLLARS for this case, and it scratches easily. This is Apple, not some case on Amazon for $5. I'm genuinely surprised its scratching this easily. Is there anything I can do to either repair the scratches or just get a new one? Thanks.

Did you purchase the iPhone new? Did you purchase from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller? Did you purchase Apple Care?

Generally, cosmetic imperfections that don’t affect performance are not covered by the standard one year original purchase warranty.

Yes. Brand new from the authorized reseller . Never encountered this issue with my previous iPhones. This is the first time.
