Our Take
The above video clearly reveals scratches on the iPhone 11 Professional, adopted by a sequence of pictures highlighting the identical. This makes us ponder whether Apple traded scratch resistance for glass power. It’s much more complicated that iPhone 12 carried out higher within the drop check. A YouTuber did a scratch check on iPhone 12 and surprisingly the scratch resistance had elevated by leaps and bounds. Apple is but to touch upon the problem.
