scratches on the back of the iphone

[lmac630]

now that many people have had the iphone 3g for atleast a day, i was wondering how much the back of the iphone scratches or will i need to put some sort of invisible shield thing on the back

[ejmonkey3]

it seems pretty sturdy against scratches for me, im sure blemishes will show but not anymore than the old phone.

No scratches yet, but it's barely left my hand!

is it as bad as say... the ipod touch back?

If I've got to keep this thing in working order for two years, I'm going to be especially careful with handling. I got a pouch that clips onto my belt. I keep it in there as much as I can. I have a Griffen case on order, but it has been backordered, and may arrive when iPhone 4G arrives. :tounge:

I've had my phone for under 24hrs but so far so good. The back is a fingerprint magnet but did not go through the scratch faze if there is any.

i found that a strip of clear scotchguard packing tape works well on the back of the phone and its clear enough not to interfere with the clarity of the camera.

One person who has officially reviewed his iPhone (http://www.everythingicafe.com/apple-iphone/iphone/iphone-3g-20080711549/) says that the back of his iPhone already is showing "some hairline scratches". :gasp:

i say get a case for it to prevent scratches and other damage

The one mounted as a sample (black) at at&t store I looked at yesterday had some scratches and fingerprints on the back and they had just brought it out in the morning. I went in the afternoon to look at it. I think I would get white, may show less.
