Is it true that the black iPhone 5 doesn't age well and chip's easily?

If you have it like 6 months. Did it age well? Did it fade the colour? I'm having trouble deciding between black and white. Also, if you have the Black one, what colour were the charger and EarPods? One too answer most questions get the 10 points.

Black don't crack.

You'll see smudges and color fades and color coming off the sides of the phone. This is what happens with the iPhone 5 Black. The black is anodized.
