That doesn’t work for current gen iPhones, whose screens you can scratch seemingly with pocket mint.

It actually does appear to be more scratch-resistant than other smartphones. Working our way up through the Mohs scale of hardness, usually I can feel the level-6 pick grab the glass and start scratching, but with this latest generation of ceramic shield, it still feels pretty smooth—even with that sharp level-6 pick. The marks are still appearing, but they're so faint and subtle that I almost can't say "scratches at a level-6, with deeper grooves at a level-7" anymore. Almost. You can get more scratch-resistant screen protectors, but as far as the builtin glass I don't think Apple is falling behind anywhere.
- Spooky23 2y agoI carry a work iPhone 15 Pro and a personal 16 Pro, actually my second, I had a warranty replacement when faceid stopped working. It scratches easily, especially on the edges. The glass is too hard. The 15 is pristine. And I treat it worse! I typically carry iPhones naked and the only mishap was I dropped two iPhone 6 because that thing was like a stick of butter.
- Dylan16807 2y ago> The glass is too hard. Being too hard should make it easier to shatter but harder to scratch, shouldn't it?
- adel2050 2y agoThat's a surprising difference in durability between the 15 Pro and your 16 Pros! Interesting about the edges scratching so easily
