It matters cause I can see the bottom of my phone. That’s what I’m talking about. I’m asking if that part being exposed is gonna get scratched up.If you always keep your phone in a case, why would it matter?
I have no idea if any Apple leather case has ever scratched my iPhone 5, 6, or X because they are always in an Apple leather case.

Damn will denim really scratch these?Then the answer is "it depends".
I use the Apple leather case and the bottom is exposed but the case lip keeps the metal away from surfaces. My iPhone is treated carefully, it's always in a front pants pocket or a jacket pocket or a cupholder in my car. It's never in a situation where it might rub against keys or anything. I have never seen a scratch on my Space Grey iPhone 5, 6, or X in this leather case.
On the other hand, my wife has the same phone's and cases and she throws her iPhone into her handbag, her backpack, in a rear pants pocket, and yes, her's gets some scratches from being occasionally rubbed against denim, zippers, keys, cosmetics, etc.

Yeah usually my keys and all that stuff get banged up from other things in my pocket lol. I have change, knife, and whatever else in my left front pocket and only my phone in my right.Again, it depends. If the pants pocket is tight and the denim is very coarse (especially at the seams), yes. If the pants pocket is loose and the denim very soft, no.
You're asking about a piece of metal. Look at your car key or your keyfob or your money clip or whatever else is metal and gets used/placed in a similar location to your phone. That's going to tell you how scratched you'll be.
I’ve had very small micro scratches on the corner from removing an putting on my sb leather case. Will easily buff out with polishing cloth if it bothers you. I also have a black silicone but prefer my leather case.My black silicone case is getting horrible and I'm interested in switching to a leather one, I tried once and It scratched my X (or maybe Itwas already scratched) anyone else can confirm if I'm roght?

I say go for it! What color are you thinkingThanks! My silicone one is awful now, discolored I think I’ll get the leather one
Can’t go wrong either way. I really enjoy the saddle brown.Black as well, i loved my black silicone case the first day and the leather One is even darker. Thinking in brown too...
Got any photos?Thanks! My silicone one is awful now, discolored I think I’ll get the leather one
Got any photos?
Do you treat it roughly/shove it in pockets with other items?
Thanks bud.Hi,
Here you have a pic.
I treat all my devices like a baby, never put it in my jeans pockets, I don’t recommend the black silicone at all

Thanks bud.
I had to look closely, but I can see stain-like marks on there. Is that what you're referring to?
Are they sweat marks or just from rubbing up along inside of pockets?
Pretty much all darker color silicone will develop that
Yes, I think so. No dark colors silicone cases anymore for me
The white develops oil grease or whatever
too but you have to hunt to see it in the light and at an angle not anywhere near as obvious / a problem
Strange as the darker colours normally mask these kinds of issues.Yes, I think so. No dark colors silicone cases anymore for me
