Okay so i got my 3G on the 11th and i have been soooo careful with it...but i noticed yesterday that i have a bunch of little hairline scratches on my black plastic back:mad: does this bother/happened to anybody?
 
No, I found it held up really good until I got my case and best skin ever. Mine thus far is scratch free, just get something on there before it gets worse.
 
I have a few on mine. It doesn't bother me. It's black plastic--I pretty much expected it.

I have a few on mine too, but it doesn't really bother me either. Actually, the only ones I can see are on the Apple logo (can't see any on the white) ...
 
what are you doing to your phone to scratch it? I've had mine constantly in and out of my pocket since I got it last Friday and I see absolutely no scratching on it... only smudges, and then just shiny plastic when I wipe it clean. I don't have anything else in that pocket though
 
since day one, i put it in a zip lock bag, since day 3, i upgraded to saran wrap, ordered invisibleshield and just today upgraded the saran warp techniques~ saran wrap is... LEGEND-

wait for it..


hope you're not lactose intolerant.

DAIRY!!!!
 
I have some on the back of mine, mostly noticeable on the Apple logo and still you can only see them when you hold it up to the light and are actually looking for them. I'm still deciding whether to buy an invisibleshield for it... but tempted to go without - which in turn is just tempting fate, lol.

With the screen, a couple of times I have gotten a really stubborn smudge on it that didn't wipe off right away and freaked out thinking it was a nasty scratch :eek: Oh the stress these things cause...
