    This is the question that i thought when a client send photo to us. He bought Samsung flagship 708 model from other seller last year. Ask us to help repair. We’re thinking how is it scratched till like that, since this is a keyless lock!

    But apparently it is not scratched. It is the effect of sunlight to the plastic keypad. Because every morning, the front door is exposed to the sunlight and also the front panel of digital lock is plastic material so after being exposed to sun for long time, the front panel will look like the above picture.
