iPhone 7/Plus Jet Black iPhone 7 users with scratches

[retta283]

Anyone here still have a Jet Black iPhone 7? How's the back holding up? Anyone using without a case? From what I've heard it starts to look like the back of an old iPod after a while.

I have a friend who has one and the back is no longer gloss and all matte after a couple years use out of the case

Wow that's brutal. Can you get a pic somehow?

A friend also has one, case less but it’s faded. He is all about his phones and then having natural wear. Some people genuinely like that look

I would love to see some photos. I am toying with the idea of purchasing a refurbished one for ***** and giggles.

My iphone 7 JB had a case all its life. It has micro-scratches and some fading in spots that the case didn’t cover. Looks good for a really old phone though

I sold mine back to Apple in October when they where giving the extra $ and moved to an XR. The guy at the Apple store when looking at mine said Wow this phone looks brand new. It had been case less since released. I don’t obsess over my Apple stuff but I’m not careless either.

Thank you for the link. I have already seen this thread and was interested in seeing photos later than 2017; where that thread ends.
