XS Max screen easy to scratch

Is anyone else finding that their xs max has a very soft screen? I already have a bunch of hairline scratches on my new iphone. I baby my devices and yet within a couple of weeks my screen is full of marks.


I have a year old 8plus that I have used for the last year and it looks like brand new. I never use screen protectors as I am super careful, yet my new phone looks like it is 3 years old. I upgrade yearly and this is the first time I have had visible marks like this in several years.


Anyone else having this same issue?

iPhone XS Max, iOS 12.0.1

I have no screen protector or case and keep phone in front pocket of jeans and after 3mths I dnt have one starch on my phone. But what I can suggest is on all my other iPhones I fit screen protectors and not only do they prevent your screen getting scratched if you drop it etc the screen protector will crack but underneath your iPhone screen will not be cracked.im a diesel mechanic and I swear by them as one afternoon at work my phone vibrated off the raid ist or fell straight into the fan at full revs got hit square one it flew about 20 meters I thought it was going to be smashed to bits the screen protector was cracked to pieces and thought the screen underneath was shattered to but it wasn’t not one crack and phone worked fine so my advice to you is to buy a glass screen protector and fit it to your phone and your screen will not get any further scratches.hope this helped you
