The news: The aluminum finish on iPhone 11 and 12 may not be all that durable, as first reported by Svetapple.
- The issue, not currently widespread, seems to be affecting the aluminum edges of recent iPhone 11 and 12 models

Our take: This doesn’t seem to be too pressing of an issue so far, but I’d certainly hope that Apple would provide replacements for devices exhibiting this in under two years. Perhaps in a few months we’ll see a replacement program…
