Tech: Do Apple’s iPhone 4 design flaws extend to the glass?

  • So yeah, another iPhone mini-crisis: So, these cases are designed to protect your iPhone from the elements, but they may actually have the opposite effect. Why? Well, if through normal use, something gets under the case, as has been known to happen, it could cause scratches to the case. Bad enough, but factor in the iPhone 4’s glass back, and you have possible breakage. They reportedly had to take a bunch of cases out of the Apple Store as a preemptive measure. Jesus, can Apple get a break here? source
