Soldato
Hi guys, so I've had my 7 Plus Matte Black since release last Sep/Oct 2016ish. Since day 1 I put a Spigen liquid armour protective case on it. I took it off every few months to clean it, but over time the below seems to have happened. It's ******!
Now is this Apple's fault for poor paint quality and anodising? Or my fault for not cleaning it enough? I've generally looked after my phones all the same, cleaned every other month. Apart from the back, the phone is mint quality front/sides, no chips, dents etc. Just strange this time round with this 'matte black' finish the paint finish seems really poor.
I'm concerned that I'm on the EE annual upgrade programme. So end of month think EE will say it's damaged and want to charge me £100 for damage, although in their terms I wouldn't class it as 'major scratches' or am I being to generous?
Now not only has the paint had abrasive damage the Spigen pattern on the back of case has imprinted on the case. I can't clean it for the life of me. I was hoping to try clean it up but struggling. I've read dozens of other threads on the Apple forums of people complaining of the same poor quality finish with the matte black anodising.
