Here is how I protect my back cover from scratching.

I found out that nexus s battery cover will scratch easily even I didn't put my phone on the table.
I don't silicon casing that will make my phone thick. Here is how I protect my phone.

Stick a layer of plastic on it.
Ya, red looks ugly, will change to white or black colour soon.

That's what I did too, except mine is a transparent film from BestSkinsEver

what kind of plastic is that? and how did you do it?

Normal transparent coloured plastics. Just a side with gum and a a side is smooth.
Use powerful hair drier to heat the red plastic and stick it... you can spray water onit to bubbles-proof. In this case, my dad didn't use water.

I think Zagg.com had a scratch protector for the back cover.

Mine seems good too. You may want to get it exchanged.

If you are looking at an extreme angle to the right side of the screen you may see a bright line. This is not light leakage. The light is not leaking out.

When I look at the top right corner at just the right angle there is a white dot. Any other angle and it disappears. Thought it could be a stuck pixel, but now I'm not sure.

First HTC One I got had a light leak in lower right corner. Turn phone to the side with screen on, and there was a small rectangularish light spot that shown through the glass edge. It was maybe a couple millimeters wide. Not a big deal.
Got a replacement phone (long story, involves a drop and insurance), and there's no light leak that I saw. Wish I had the old phone for proof.
Whatever the case, with the first phone I could live with it. Wasn't a big deal to me. There's some really minor build quality issues, like my replacement phone (which was a brand new phone, not a refurbish) has a hairline gap between the top metal and the white plastic. Again, nothing really bothersome. It's trivial, and certainly not wide enough to fit anything other than a really thin hair through. So you could take your chances for a replacement, or live with it.

Aluminum showing on black m7

On the corners i can see the paint peeling off. Is their something I can do to fix this issue? I wanna try plastic dip. But did it on my friends s4 and it peels off easy

A black marker will do just fine I reckon.

G2 quickwindow cases on clearance for 14.99 @ best buy

Went into best buy mobile yesterday at our mall and they had the quickwindow cases down to 14.99, from 49.99. Picked one up, nice and thin and protects the front too. The window apps are nice too. Just a heads up in case you're looking for one.

I remembering reading once that the silver trim of the quickwindow would sit directly on the screen and overtime scratch it. Could you observe if this is true?

I heard that too but my friend has the quickwindow case and put a screen protector on the main screen which solved any scratching problems.

Still seems like a huge design flaw to me.

I purchased a used G2 off of criaglist that came with the quickwindow case. Upon first glance, you don't notice it. But after going outside and turning the screen at certain angles, you can definitely see some very fine surface scratching on the screen where the trim meets the glass. No matter how much I cleaned the screen, it didn't go away. So yes, it definitely scratches the screen over time. Now, I put a screen protector on it (which the previous owner didnt), and you can't see the scratches anymore. However, the silver trim started scratching the screen protector too. So now I just use a completely different case.

I can confirm that, bought mine for 3-5€ on ebay (because I wanted the blue one) and after a month I noticed tiny scratches when holding the phone under the sun. I'm not using the case anymore, well I should have, shattered the screen a week ago :silly:, but when I return it from repair
I try to fix the case by sticking something more smooth on the metal rim, but I still don't have any idea what would do the trick without looking too bad.

i don't recommend it. scratched my screen..

trim getting nicks

I have my moto x with a metallic blue trim and I noticed it has Nicks in it and I've been very very careful with this phone so has anyone else notices little nicks in the trim? You can notice because silver metal shows through
