After some time, a post appeared on reddit again, in which the appearance and durability of the iPhone 7 in the Jet Black variant is addressed. It is essentially already a tradition. Similar posts have been appearing here since the release and users always rave about how their phone looks and how that glossy finish washes up with daily use (ideally without a case). The last request from Sunday was clear. Users were supposed to show off how their year-old Jet Black iPhone 7 looks. The only condition was that it had to be a phone that had not been kept in a case during its entire use. Some images look quite drastic.
It should be noted that Apple itself warns on its website that the Jet Black variant is more susceptible to physical damage, or abrasions, scratches and other defects in appearance. If you've held the Jet Black iPhone 7 in your hand, you know that there's not much to be surprised about. The phone looks absolutely great, but only until the first fingerprints, grease and scratches appear on it. On the glossy surface, these traces are visible much more than on the other (matte) color variants.
Some users take good care of their iPhone and that's why it shows. Others, on the other hand, do not mate with him and give him whatever he wants. Some pictures show a really impoverished iPhone. In the comments on reddit, one user wrote that one of the photos of the iPhone reminded him of the back of the original iPod Classic. After opening the drawer and looking at my own Classic, which has been used without any restrictions for almost six years, I have to agree. The scratched aluminum back looks very similar to the scratched back of the Jet Black iPhone in the sun.
Although this is a very effective color option, which is certainly popular among users, it can be expected that it will no longer appear in new phones. At least the information so far doesn't indicate it, but maybe Apple will surprise and Jet Black will reappear. What is your opinion on this option?

God it's disgusting how someone can wear it like that. I would be ashamed. I prefer it in a cover and not a single scratch. Maybe there will be a mini for charging.
And that's exactly the problem. The JetBlack hidden in the cover isn't even JetBlack. Vicious circle.
If one were really careful, the phone could be preserved even without scratches, for example with only the Contour glass over the corners, which is not visible at all. I have a 6S like this myself.
I have to say that without the case even my iP6s showed signs of scratches. On the other hand, it's funny how it's the thinnest and most beautiful phone…….. until you put it in the case, which is simply mandatory :-). Otherwise you have scratches everywhere.
The original cover didn't even last half a year, then it started crumbling senselessly (even where it wasn't scratched), so he went for a claim. At least they acknowledged it to me, but simply Apple has a mobile phone that is immediately destroyed without a cover and does not even make a cover that will last.
I've never used a case on an iPhone and you'd be surprised - none were destroyed either immediately or anytime later. :D
Consumer goods. Warranty period, lifetime. It's not a sacred cow. Well, we actually do.
It looks perfect, the copper will patina too.
You can do it, I'm not saying that you have to treat the phone like cattle...but it's still just a phone.... if you don't want it scratched, put it in the safe and that's it…. it's a thing that normal people buy to use, I understand that a lot of people have it for "showing off", then I understand that it's a sacred item and you have to be careful not to accidentally scratch it during the activities it's intended for... .
Unfortunately, this variant only looked good lit up in photos, not in real life, let alone after holding hands and scratching.)
Therefore, after the iPhone 5 gray, I only buy the silver version. Even if it gets scratched, the scratch remains the same color. I use the original leather apple case on the 6S and it still looks good after a year. Plus, my phone holds better than without a case. Mom has the original silicone case for the 6 and I think it's even better.
It looks the same as the back of the 1st Gen iPod touch
