the jet-black iPhone what's up youtubers I'm back here with my second and final
iPhone 7 plus durability test I've been using a case with my jet-black iPhone
that I picked up a little over a month ago and I want to just show you guys
under the best lighting conditions I'm actually outside using a tripod but the
focus adjusted really hoping that it stays in focus through this whole video
give you guys kind of a look of what my jet-black iPhone looks like as you can
see right away there's a lot of spots and blemishes but what really stood out
to me was the antenna lines and how much they marked up seems like they marked up
very quickly to I would say within the first week and a half I started noticing
these marks they're really prominent on the bottom which I feel like is because
the bottom is open on the case a bit more dust is able to get in around those
speaker areas there and you can just see here once I adjust the focus how bad it
is you can see it's like somebody almost took a sandpaper and just went right
across it and now as for these little blemishes that are in the glass well in
not glass into the back of the device so it is a metal a lot of people think well
if you've never touched the jet black or gone and seen one in an Apple store that
it's like the iPhone 3GS and believe me it's not it's not a polyurethane this is
a metal backing the jet black is of type of finish that Apple uses so it's a
shiny still metal but it has that jet black kind of coating now you can see I
have a bunch of other scratches up here as well
one which are kind of normal from taking the phone out of the case and showing it
to people you do pick up those kind of scratches here and there but again like
I was saying when I'm really surprised that or all of these little marks so you
can see these little white spots these blemishes that are kind of dug into the
back of the case and they're all over the place I've been using a case since I
bought the device and they won't come off
you try scratching them like I'm doing here I'm trying to rub and apply force
you can pull out a cloth I have a microfiber cloth right here you can
scrub it as hard as you can and that blemish still does not come off
so even in a case if you guys bought a clear case or a really nice felt case I
still believe that as dust gets into it it's going to mark up now solutions to
this I've been looking at different companies who are offering glass screen
protectors who are offering skins and all of these other things and what I'm
really interested in and I had a youtuber actually mentioned this to me
was the liquid screen protectors I've been in contact with a company who says
they've developed a liquid screen protector specifically for the back of
the jet black iPhones and I'm almost ready to make the jump it's just putting
a coating on your device he spent $1,000 on I mean I didn't just buy this device
for YouTube I'm also using it as my main device I have other devices that I
usually do tutorials with and this one's just kind of my main personal device but
I'd still like to keep it you know without a case to and keep it nice so
I'm going to look into that if I do decide to do that I will make sure I
make a video on that but here we go again best lighting conditions that I
could do I know it's not the greatest and it would be great if we could zoom
right into these little dots but yeah that's my iPhone after one month of
being in a case I still would recommend a case because it would scratch up a lot
more without the case a lot quicker like within a day but with the case on you're
still gonna expect the dust to get under there the scratches to show it's
inevitable I'm still happy with my device I think it was a great purchase
what do you guys think let me know in the comments below thanks for watching
we'll see you guys again next time Cheers
