iPhone 6S Rose Gold Easily Scratched?

Hi,


I'm using an iPhone 6S Rose Gold and noticed a lot of tiny scratches on the side when there is a casing around the 4 sides. Thankfully, the screen has no issues with scratching but the sides are bothering me. I see one part of the side, the paint peeling off? I don't understand how it can still get scratches when it is fully covered.


Does anyone have why is this happening? How do I prevent it? How do I fix it?


All my gadgets are from Apple and it'll be a great pity if my iPhone 6S is easily scratched even WITH protection. Please help!

I am using iPhone 6s gold colour phone and I am facing the same issue. Phone was covered in soft silicon protection cover from the day one and in spite of regular cleaning of the protection cover, there were colour peeled spots around the four edges and backside of the phone . Those scratch like spots are layer deep and white colour beneath is clearly visible and surface texture feels like patchy on touch. Is there anything to do about it, anyone facing the same issue ?

I thought I was the only one experiencing the same scenario coz my collegues doesn't have that scratches. I thought of moving on with these and just hide it with case. Yea, technician said that it's a cosmetic damage and not to be considered as dent but it so disgusting to be seen. Huhuhu. Can someone raise it to Apple and re collect or replace our phones. Too disappointing! :'(
