iPhone 4: Yes, You Can Scratch Me

June 24, 2010

We're not sure how easy it is to scratch the iPhone 4's super-durable Gorilla Glass, but thanks to a recent post by Engadget, we know that it may be possible. Their leader managed to get his hands on an iPhone 4 review unit, and, after a close inspection of the handset, noticed that it was decorated with more than just the Apple logo. One scratch in particular can be noticed "in bright light and at an angle". You can check out the pictures below and see the tainted phone for yourself. It's also worth noting that, although iFixit has identified the iPhone's front panel as being made of Gorilla Glass, the material on the back of the phone has not yet been positively identified. Keep checking back for updates!
