all cases scratch the new iPhone 5, remember they all have scratchgate...it's a known issue ;)

And... Apple are not doing anything about it ? Shocking customer service..
On another note any recommendations for cases ?
 
Had a look but no posts seem to answer my question

Your question is what is the best case. There's lots of recommendations but no one but you can answer that question. It's an opinion. Other people will give you their opinion of the best case. There are tons of other threads in this subforum with people giving their opinion of the best case for the 5. You will have to do some research and take some chances. As far as a TPU case scratching your phone, it's incredibly unlikely, but unfortunately your phone will be scratched at some point. You can put protective films and wraps on your phone but at some point it becomes pretty ridiculous to put your phone in a wrap before you put it in a case to put it in a pocket. Just my opinion. ;)

Thanks for your input. I do try and minimise the occurrence of scratches etc, hence looking for the best case.
 
Does anyone have any recommendations for cases that do not scratch the iPhone 5 ? Bit wary on that behalf. I know Apple sell incase pro cases but i'm worried the clips on the side will cause scratch/scuff marks. Like it did on my macbook !
