Does the gray iPhone 5s scratch easily?

[Haydon W]

I remember how the iPhone 5 black had many complaints about scratches, will it be the same with the 5s? thoughts?

I personally would have to say until I actually had one top look at how would you know, I say this because if I knew if it was the SAME EXACT finish as the 5 I would say yes but looking at it from pics I would say no right now. I reserve the right to change my mind later.

Since no one has one yet, it’s hard to say. I have read that one of the reasons Apple dropped the black phone was that it was hard to produce, and scratched easily - it has to do with the anodizing process ... so it may hold up better ...

Thanks for sharing the article. Looks like there's still potential for scratching on the space gray model, maybe just not as much as the slate. It will be interesting to see.
