Before I exchanged my Note 7 last Thursday, I did a scratch test with my key, blade and screw driver and surprisingly, no scratch!

man you all are having the wrong perception regarding mobile scratch proof. GG has been good against the general items that can scratch like keys and other items that the phone comes in contact with for years already so its pretty pointless to keep testing against those.
the real test you should be considering is against silica (sand/dust/beach) which in theory will always fail (unless GG able to solve this). and this is the most common thing that will one day somehow or rather get into contact with the mobile phone.
so unless GG solves this or mobile companies find a way to produce exceptionally cheap sapphire to place on the mobile phone, consider your mobile device to be eventually scratchable (just a matter of when)
