iPhone 6 screen easily scratched?

Have been taking EXTREMELY good care of my 6+, but the corners already have visible scratches. Anyone else experiencing this?

Hey same problem with my iPhone 6.


Earlier had an iPhone 4 and kept it for 4 years and with very less scratch , but while using this 6 after few weeks have found almost 7-8 minute scratches on main screen and on the curve edges despite keeping the phone in very good condition.


has anyone got any reply from Apple Care regarding this? will they be resolving this issue?

1) One vertical long narrow superficial scratch after few days,
2) One long horizontal thick but superficial after 1,5 week
got a screen protector after these 2 scratches and the apple silicon case from the start
3) and now notice another scratch on directly on the curved glas near the Lightning connector.

All scratch is superficial and some less noticeable after a while


Had some random reboots, checked and I have TCL memory too, loose home button, wonder what I will find by next. 😟

please don't argue scratch ratio. let me tell you, it is 100% scratch guaranteed.


the screen is softer than thus can be scratched by a loose dirt. try this:


use a flashlight to scan power-off screen, and you'll see some even on brand new phone out of box, because the dirty plastic cover can easily scratch it when put on or peeled off.


It is not 100%. Please do not make unfounded and unprovable claims. Mathematically, if even a single iPhone 6 is not easily scratched, then it's not 100%. But since there are a LOT (including my multiple units) without scratches, it's definitely not 100%.


Cite your source for your claim, please.

I wonder why you are hovering over this discussion.

You're either with a victim or for a perpetrator. For me, I'm myself a victim and can sympathize with many others on this forum.

Most visitors or posters are victims while a very few either have too much time on hand or have different motive.


almost a quarter million viewers of this post shout out the truth loud and clear. everyone has different experiences with smart phone, everyone has different expectations so we should agree to disagree. don't have to judge others based on your own limited view and experience.


Sincerely, I wish I were that someone who just upgraded from $10 phone and fell in love with $700 phone no matter what problem it has.

Happy and blindly happy!


so if you have problem, post it so we can share and try to help you;

if your phone is perfect and you can do nothing or say nothing other than telling others that they're stupid to have problem, your opinions are taken.
