I carry a work iPhone 15 Pro and a personal 16 Pro, actually my second, I had a warranty replacement when faceid stopped working. It scratches easily, especially on the edges. The glass is too hard.

The 15 is pristine. And I treat it worse! I typically carry iPhones naked and the only mishap was I dropped two iPhone 6 because that thing was like a stick of butter.

That's a surprising difference in durability between the 15 Pro and your 16 Pros! Interesting about the edges scratching so easily

Being too hard should make it easier to shatter but harder to scratch, shouldn't it?
