Hairline scratches iPhone X

I change iPhone every two years since the iPhone 4. I’ve never use a screen protector and never had scratches like I have now on my iPhone X after only a few months.

Is this warranty?

I Apple Watch série 1 screen is in better shape than my iPhone X.

Hairline cracks in iPhone XS Max screen Hi All. Well I have an XS Max bought cash on the release date. Very happy with the phone, it has been cased since day one and had the apple screen protector applied straight from the box. It has never been dropped or subject to misuse. A few days ago whilst downloading some dash cam footage the sun caught the screen at a certain angle and I could see two hairline cracks about two cm apart both running horizontally across the screen! You cannot see them normally but you can just about feel them if you run the tip of your nail over the screen. So, I have read that the 1 year warranty on the phones covers hairline cracks regardless of apple care (which I don't have as I have never dropped an iphone, cracked a screen or needed one repairing since the first iphone came out!). Has anyone else read this?

IPhone 11 scratches Does the warranty cover scratches on the iPhone 11 screen? It sounds like this is a defective material since so many are experiencing scratches with minimal use. I’ve never had issues with scratches until this phone. It has only been in a soft pocket or face up on a desktop and there are several gouges making it difficult to read.

Warranty for scratched screen I’ve only had my watch for one month and the screen already scratched. I guess I was ignorant and thought the glass stronger. I have only worn around the house, walking, sleeping. The retailer I purchased from never suggested a screen protector. I didn’t think it needed one. Anyway, is this covered on a warranty?

Scratches are considered cosmetic damage and is not covered under the warranty.
