No they don't really bother me as they are hardly noticeable, apart from like I said when the light catches part of the housing where there are scratches. Screen so far has no noticeable scratches. It would really really really upset me if the screen ever got badly scratched, and knowing me I would get it replaced as soon as I could. I have had a couple of phones in the past ( Nokia N95 and Sony Ericsson K800) that have been badly scratched, and for me the phone is never quite the same till the screen has been replaced
