More and more users complain that the black iPhone 5 is too easy to peel off. For this issue, Apple has finally given a positive response, but in their view, the problem of peeling off the paint is too normal.
Recently, a user sent an email to Apple's vice president Phil Schiller to ask why the iPhone 5 black is so easy to peel off paint, and Schiller seemed impatient in answering this question. He said that the iPhone 5 body uses aluminum alloy material (back cover), and this material is very normal in the use of paint and other problems, there is no fuss Laser Engraver.
Subsequently, the user also asked whether the black iPhone 5 that had lost paint could be replaced. Schiller's answer was very positive, that is, Apple would not provide this free replacement service, because this is normal.
It should be noted that aluminum alloy is a metal with a soft texture and is easy to wear and deform. Apple only sprayed a thin coating on the material of the black iPhone 5 back cover (anodized aluminum process, its own back shell (It is not black from the inside to the outside), which makes the machine very easy to fade in daily friction.
In the face of Apple's ignorance, foreign merchants have introduced Laser Engraver engraving technology on the back cover to solve this problem.
