Light scratch on iPad mini 4

[Artmuzz]

This morning I left my iPad mini 4 on the table and went away to make a cup of coffee. When I came back I seen my cat lying on top of it. I lifted her off and checked my iPad mini 4 for scratches only to find a light scratch on the screen. It is only noticeable when I position my iPad towards light. I tried cleaning the screen but the scratch is still there. Is it possible that my cat scratched the screen? Surely with the price those iPads are, a cat wouldn't do any damage to the screen. Also, is there anything I could use to get rid of light scratches.

Unfortunately, it's likely permanent. Price point has nothing to do with how a screen scratches though, because of all the variables that can scratch the display. That said, A Cats nails are sharp enough to scratch the display. Likely because their nails are so fine and Pin pointed where it would suffer minor damage quickly.

Oh well, I paid a lot of money on a device that scratches easily even when a kitty cat lies on top of it. I thought it took a lot for those iPad screens to scratch or atleast on YouTube videos they do.

I can understand your frustration and there is nothing worse than a scratch on a display that you notice. But like I mentioned before, it's how the scratches happens over how durable a display is. It's totally dependent on the circumstances.

Not nails, but sand on nails is the main "scratch factor"
