I'm confused. While the photo clearly shows more than just the matte turning shiny from use, some are saying that's all it is, just shiny. To the owner, can you please verify, if you touch the area, can you feel distinct edges to the spot you're showing in the photos?
I have one of these and couldn't be happier. While the matte finish on mine is getting a little shinier where my arm rests and the neck getting shinier, there's definitely not any noticeable edges like I see in the photos.
