Although it's probably harmless, and maybe it was in place for shipping. I am also debating to leave it there or not. I'd say it was certainly there not for aesthetics but to keep the hairline seam from widening (you have to look real closely near the edge!). However, I can't believe tape could really do that much, and that such a gorgeous phone would be designed to have a piece of tape left on it for such a purpose and make it not look as nice. But since others have taken it off, I suppose it really doesn't matter.
