I took my iPhone out of it's case for the first time in ages.

Apart from there are more cracks than there was at the start of the year it was very dirty etc.

I read and watched tutorials online etc on how to clean ydadada.
I had scuff marks from where the silicon had been rubbing the phone and made it look dirty, the chrome was also scratched from summer time spending its time out of its case and in my tent and in the boat cabin.

All i can say is use a paint brush to clean all the ports out, then get your self some brasso, a lint freen cloth and polish and clean the white/black back if it is scratched or scuffed, then you can polish all the surface scratches out of the chrome surround.

Comes up mean

Brasso's not that abrasive, particularly if you don;t apply too much pressure.

Wow, that's a lot of cracks there... None of my mobile phones ever had this problem. And I had plenty of phones since 1995...

I've never owned a phone that has cracked, i just thought it was a problem with some of the phones, as reported in here people have got cracks after 3 weeks of usage.

My phones 10 Months old.

They everywhere, Every Post Switch and hole on the case.

I'm pretty careful with my phone i think i may have dropped it once from about 1 foot while sitting on a park bench with a silicon case on and i dented where the chrome is.

Otherwise they are everywhere.
