We already have Jet Black iPhones...

Just look at the front of your iPhone, it will strongly resemble the Jet Black finish. I'm not sure if I want this type of gloss all around the entire phone and happy that it is just in the front.

The glass iPhone 4 and 4s were two of the nicest looking iPhones yet, but people complained about how fragile having so much glass was.

The jet black iPhone 7 is metal that looks like glass. Win/win.

We all use cases so the color of a housing we cannot see doesn't matter.
