The iPhone 5 is as sleek and beautiful as it is susceptible to dents and scratches. Even a small percentage of new units came with nicks right out of the box, which eventually led to Apple tightening up quality control measures
at the iPhone 5 assembly lines. That said, can you imagine how one of
them would look like after being used for a couple of months?
No
need to visualize anything because someone has already done that for
us. In the photos below we have two black iPhone 5 handsets, one of
which has been encased since the very same day it was purchased, while
the other has seen a lot of unprotected action. Both of them have been
in use for about 2 months now. Obviously, it is quite easy to tell which
one is which.
This, of course, is just a
single case, but it clearly demonstrates that if you don't handle your
iPhone 5 with care, it will get bruised sooner or later. And for most of
us, paying $99 to have the damage fixed just
isn't an option. But at the end of the day, do a few nicks matter?
After all, despite being prone to scratching, Apple's newest smartphone
is still a durable device, as those numerous iPhone 5 drop tests have shown. Perhaps you'd like to share your thoughts on this with us? If that's the case, sound it off below!
