Following the official launch of the iPhone 17 series, users have begun receiving their new models. This iteration was highly anticipated due to design changes, enhanced durability, and new features. However, concerns have emerged regarding the build quality and durability of the phones. Pictures showcasing scratches on the iPhone 17 Pro models and Air variants have surfaced, causing distress among users who have invested significant sums. This has raised questions among those who have purchased the devices.
Reports indicate that some color options of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air are more susceptible to scratches. Social media platforms, particularly X (formerly Twitter), are filled with images showing scratches and minor wear on the new iPhone models. Despite the presence of Ceramic Shield technology, doubts are arising about the smartphones’ durability.
The deep blue color variant of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, along with the space black color variant of the iPhone Air, appear to be experiencing the most noticeable scratching. The exact usage conditions of these models are currently unclear. Users who are considering purchasing or have already purchased the iPhone 17 series are advised to handle their phones with care.
The iPhone 17 Pro utilizes an aerospace-grade 7000 series aluminum body, which is intended to be more durable than previous models. The Pro models incorporate Ceramic Shield 2 for scratch and crack resistance. The iPhone Air, on the other hand, features a titanium chassis, touted for its increased durability compared to aluminum. It also includes Ceramic Shield on the rear panel and Ceramic Shield 2 on the display for scratch resistance.
