That's the thing about designing for looks over durability. My HTC is like that too... a beautiful aluminum unibody frame, but now it looks like shit with chips and wear marks everywhere. Some people put covers or rubberized coatings, but that just makes it look like shit immediately instead of after months of use (and adds weight and bulk)

The thing about the 'cheap' plastic used by Samsung is that it is durable - it looks pretty much the same after a year of use, and if not you can just replace the plastic.
