iPhone 16 Pro Max Blemishes on Titanium Frame Out of Box
My new iPhone 16 Pro Max came with these blemishes straight out of the box. They only come off with a lens wipe, but quickly reappear once you touch the phone. Is this due to the coating used to achieve the gold color? does anyone else have this issue on their titanium frame?- sparkles61785

iPhone 11 scratch repair for coating of phone frame
Bad luck. My new iPhone 11 slipped out of my pocket and hit the street just before the case I ordered arrived! Guess I'm lucky the back glass didn't break but where the left bottom corner of my phone hit the asphalt, the coating got scratched up. I don't care about the scratches cosmetically... -

iPhone 11 Pro Screen scratches for no reason
I bought iPhone 11 Pro some 6 months ago. I kept it away from hard surfaces. Never stuck it in my pocket with keys. Only inside a pocket on its own. I came from iPhone 6s. And I feel like the screen of 11 Pro scratches way too easily. I already have a scratch that I cannot buff out and I can...- macTheUser32

Request: Show me the worst possible scratch ever on a Space Black Apple Watch.
Ive heard the claims that SBSS is indestructible. S0s and S1s still “look like the day they were purchased.” 700 days of 23 hour use and not a mark on them. Are the rumors true? Is a scratch on a SBSS like the Bigfoot of the tech world? Surely the sheen of the SBSS must fade or something? (I am...- mjr1000
