Are your pockets staining the plastic strips on the new iPhone?


Recommended Posts

The plastic spacers on the back of the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plushave been a sore point with some owners. They are a functional necessity though, barring a complete redesign of how to integrate the antennas on the iPhone.

The new iPhone has the same high-quality build we have come to expect from Apple, but it looks like these plastic spacers may ruin the fun a bit if you like to keep your phone unprotected in your pocket.

For those that do not keep their phone in a case, but pocket it while wearing jeans, there may be an emerging issue with the plastic strips getting discolored through the repetitive action of sliding the phones in or out of the pocket. The dye from the denim rubs on the plastic strips and makes the device look dirty.

Yup, that's certainly the high quality I expect from Apple! :rofl:

Lol.. yeah HTC uses the same plastic strip... apparently they don't have that issue. Christ for the price of the 6 and 6+ you'd think this would get more attention... I mean, image how hideous that would look stained purple/pink/red or any other non matching color for that matter.
