Scratch + Swirl Marks Out of Box (iPhone 7+ Jet Black)

[SparkFlash]

This is exactly why I have no interest in jet black...its beautiful no doubt! But its an item you use daily all the time...why would I want that item to be so sensitive?

did you not read? scratch is no longer there. installed transparent skin on it and no longer have issues with marks.

Oh sorry bud! Didn't scroll all the way! Glad it's gone! ✌️

just an update, that 'scratch' came off. as far as the swirl marks i dont notice it but just through the picture i took. im not exchanging it. i put a transparent skin on it so im using it with that for now. will eventually get a bumper though. i dont have a single scratch on the phone.

Awesome pic by the way!
Thanks for the update.

Don't care as much since installing the skin. Just saying a skin goes a long way.

I get that I really do. But then even with a clear case does it really matter that its jet black under? I have a clear case on my matte black and due to the shine of the case my phone could be a jet black and no one would know the difference.

case does not equal skin. they're completely different from each other.

does this look like a case to you? in person it looks as though there is no skin even on it.

Yeah, so it was something external scrapped on. Glad to hear it's gone now.

Apple should've stated NOT FOR WITH OCD. LOL

I get it's your money but honestly KNOWING that it will get scratched even Apple stated it why bother.

My OCD has improved and as much as I want to show this off that I have the latest iPhone there's just no way I can pick this color up.

This is for those who doesn't give a you know what attitude. Or buy Apple Care+ knowing they can just replace in the future.

They did exactly that with the disclaimer.

I have access to 3M clear bra material that they put on cars... I wonder if it would be worth trying to put it on the phone..

DYI is fun and all, but for $9 you can have the same materials, precision cut to your model phone.

I believe the car bra skins are thicker than 0.2mm also.
