So much for bulletproof

Fruity cargo-cult Apple’s move to expensive titanium cases on its new iPhone range has not been worth the extra money as users are already complaining they are too easy to scratch.

Apple fanboys have taken to the worldwide wibble to complain that while titanium made the latest flagships much lighter they were a doddle to scratch and scruff.

This means that users will have to buy a protective case, which means no one will see the nice shiny titanium, and Apple might as well have used plastic.

Apparently, the marks are more prominent on darker colours, but Apple fanboys will unconsciously know they are there on lighter colours, too.

The Midnight finish of the 15-inch and 13-inch MacBook Air was also prone to scratches, but since both portable Macs feature a unibody aluminium chassis, it can hold up its paint job well enough, unlike titanium.
