Do me a favor and look closely at the edges of your phone

[anon(3092520)]

Do any of you notice lines running through the silver area around the edges of the phone? Mine has numerous thin lines that I can't tell if it's just part of the manufacturing process or hairline cracks. They don't have an apparent pattern so it leads me to believe they're not part of the manufacturing process.

Thanks

I noticed some thing. It's the way it was built. I freaked at first when I saw it too lol

It's called the "brushed metal" look

Also you'll notice vertical lines near the corners. Those are how it was put together. I learned that from my Nexus. Just in case you're way OCD like me.

My bf had said damn you scratched your phone up bad already and I panicked thinking what's he talking about and he showed me and I said it's a brushed metal look you got me worried for nothing

Are people really trying this hard to find faults in this amazing phone?

I've seen pictures of phones that have cracked in this area so it's not unreasonable to be concerned.

Never noticed it until now.
So much for attention to detail!
