The problem of scratching the side strips of iPhone 5 attracted the attention of many users, so Gizmodo he thought of doing a test to see how well the terminal was built and how the paint on it holds up. In the images in this article you have a comparison between one iPhone 5 used for 2 months with a case and an iPhone 5 used for 2 months without a case, and the differences are interesting. I also have an iPhone 5 for 2 months, I haven't handled it, I don't take care of it, I've put it in places where it's been constantly shaken well, but it doesn't look nearly as bad as the one from the picture.
Because of the way I've been using it lately, the sides of my terminal have gotten a bit scratched, but nowhere near what you see in these pictures. If you keep the iPhone together, with keys or other objects, there is a possibility that in a few months you will completely clean the side strips of paint, but if you keep it separately, it will look almost as good as when it was new. Regardless of which smartphone you get, you must know that a case protects it, and using it without a case will damage it over time.
