Earlier, soon after the launch of Apple iPhone 5, there were reports of the black paint being easily scuffled.
Apple released the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus in matte black and glossy black versions in September 2016. The company had also warned that the jet black variant was more prone to scratches and scuffs.
