Also no scratches on my 1.5 yo Motorola G 4G (version before yours I think?)
I guess they cut more corners to get the bigger screen etc and keep the price low

Bought mine in August last year, it's 4G so the same as yours I think?
Do you keep another phone in your pocket at the same time though? I always thought it was only dealers and PR people who did this.
It either took a long time for the scratches to appear or it took me a long time to notice them. The latter is a definite possibility. I've basically wanted a new phone since the summer so I'm definitely thinking cheap phones are a false economy (as I can't fit any more apps on it either due to it being 8Gb) given I paid £160 for it.
I'm going to stick with it till I've found a phone I definitely want and can commit the monies though.

I've got scratches that shouldn't be there on the screen of my Moto G, it's one of my gripes about it. The screen feels very plasticy and it seems to have picked them up from being in my pocket with my work phone (iPhone 5s). Needless to say there are no small scratches on the iPhone screen, because it is not made of cheese.
I just read this about the 5X which doesn't seem very encouraging:

Everyone at Google is getting one for Christmas so maybe that means it will get sorted (sounds like a software thing to me).
