Dust between "plastic" Bezels around the iPhone X

[Noem]

I had my iPhone x for 2 weeks an i love it but one thing disturbs me. There is a lot of dust between the plastic bezels around the screen. It is located between the screen and the plastic seal around the iPhone. I tried different things like thin paper or water but it can't be removed. Anyone there who have the same "problem" and an idea how to remove it?

Sounds like a manufacturing error. I’d take it back. Everything’s fine for me and many others it seems.

I’ve found that the best way to remove the tiny bits of dust from between the screen and the plastic seal is to rub the edge of the phone across my jeans. T-shirt doesn’t seem to do it, but the jeans work fine......go figure!

the microfibre clothes used to detail cars are really good for this task

Do you have any photos showing how big the gap is?

Something like blu tack might help in getting the dust out.

I can fit a thin piece of paper between the stainless steel frame and the top of the screen, which means also,I get little bits of dust lodged there. It’s been like that since the 6, and also with my old 7. I was hoping Apple would ha e fixed it for this €1349 phone but I guess not…

I use my shirt or a microfiber cloth, sometimes I blow on it and it removes the dust. Probably the same for any physical object.

If dust can get in, can't water get in?

and that really

And that really annoys me. in my iPhone x i can put a piece of paper in the bezels too. So is this product really water resistent?

some are dust but majority is glue because there is a gap between the screen and the stainless steel and you can really see it.i checked at my local bestbuy and apple store and pretty much all of them have this issue im just hoping that the waterproofing is not affected though.

The seal for water and dust resistance wouldn't have much to do with that plastic trim around the screen, as others have said most iPhones do have a very small gap all the way around and dust and debris will get caught up in there, but nothing catastrophic will come of it.
