Wow! Don’t these people know that they’re supposed to spend another $50 on a case...?

So the iPhone can fold to better fit in your pocket. Cool!

Such a large phone and Apple insists on making it as thin as possible.

I look like the nerd I am, but I insist on carrying my iPhone 5c in a belt pouch, not stuffed into my back pocket.

Whenever I’m on a call and the other person’s voice is garbled or distorted and difficult to understand, I ask them what phone they’re on. 7 out of 10 times, it’s an iPhone.

The only cell phone that is now curved and it is not an iPhone, are those from LG.

It’s a feature, not a problem!

“a major design flaw that sees the smartphone body bend under pressure.”

God made hammers to fix problems like this. Or you could get the vise out of your Kwanza kit and straighten it out lickety-split.

Samsung is marketing a curved TV screen. Apple should just call the bend an added feature.

Not to mention...you can charge your iPhone in the microwave.

“One user, hanzoh, posted an image of a bent iPhone 6 Plus, complaining that the device warped after roughly 18 hours in his pocket.”

Which pocket? You aren’t supposed to sit on these things!!

Perhaps the iPhone 6 is made out of Transparent Aluminum?

The LG Flex smart phone was way ahead of Cupertino.

"_gate" is so 20th century. This is Bent-gazi.

They did not carry them around in their pocket as part of the testing? Giving it to a teenager for a couple of weeks would seem to be standard test procedure.

Here a YouTube bend test.
