I was very careful with my Pre. I always carried it in the sleeve that it comes with and pretty much only had it out to use or charge. I noticed today that it has a pretty sizable scratch running vertically from the right gesture area to about midpoint on the screen. It's actually in the area that I gesture the most, so it could be a wear mark. Nonetheless, I was pretty surprised as I am pretty cautious with it.

I think that I'll put a screen protector on it. Does anyone think that this will make the scratch less noticeable? At least it will prevent more scratches.

Thanks.

I dropped and scratched my FIRST Pre, but it was barely noticeable. However, I learned my lesson from that and quickly put a screen protector on my new one (well, refurb).

Not a mark on mine, but I am very, very careful with it. If it's not sitting on my desk it's either in the pouch that came with it or the official Palm Pre belt clip case.

But, man, does it get greasy. I use a soft lens cloth but I think that just moves the grease around. As someone wrote in another post, I think the grease helps protect it from scratches.

I can't believe that Palm doesn't include any cleaning instructions in the official user guide. When you buy a PC or TV they'll tell you how to clean the screen. What's the matter with you, Palm?

I was sitting on my deck enjoying the sunshine when my son came out (special needs) and grabbed it, flipped it on its' face and rubbed it along the surface of the table. Lots of hairline scratches, none of which are visible when it is on.

Nothing like rubbing a shiny pre against a pane of glass with a little dust in between...

I have a huge scratch down the center of the phone. I also have numerous scratches on the edges. I am presently polishing the scratches out of the sides with 3M plastic polish (39010). A little goes a long way. I may try to polish out the major scratch, but the oreo effect of this phone is so bad right now, I may just warranty it out with Palm for a new one.
