Should I worry about polishing my iPhone X too often? Do I run the risk of making the metal too thin? I’ve been using Cape Cod’s Polishing wipes if that helps. Thank you in advance.

I doubt you would wear the metal thin, as the cloth is not abrasive. What could happen though is that if you polish too often, the metal might have an unevenness to it. I would only polish every so often and make sure you’re not applying too much pressure on the stainless and evenly around the bands.

It's just a phone, a tool for comms! Not an expensive item of jewellery! Just clean it with a lint free cloth now & then and get on with your day.

Cape Cod cloths use a very light duty abrasive and you could polish your phone everyday for years with out harm.
