This concerns me. I ride my motorcycle to work every day and my pants get tight when in the sitting position. Ill have to get a small pack or something. Ill be watching this to see how many others bend their i5s
This is why it's a good idea to get a hardcase for the iPhone 5.
It's so easy to Photoshop this image (especially with the black background) and account registered Sept. 2012.
Might be a troll, I don't know.
I tried to plead my case that the phone like every other Iphone is stored in my front pocket, set on my desk, or counter. He happily explained that my phone is now out of warranty and it is considered damaged.
I can't help myself... that's freaking hilarious.
There's even a crack above the button.
Sometimes people amaze me, this is one of those times.
No bent iPhone 5 here. But thanks for the picture, that should be put up on
Reddit or something, maybe even Fark. I'd love to see the reactions
There's no way sitting in the front pocket of tight jeans generates even close to enough force for a phone out of aluminium and glass to bend.
How is a two week old phone "out of warranty"?

I was advised that since I damaged the phone and it is damaged, now it is out of warranty.
Thinner glass and thinner metal band is going to make the phone more prone to bending. Just look at how little metal there is left on the band where the button for volume is located. It is why is never carry in my pocket.
I personally think Apple sacrificed this phones practical use for the weight and thickness of the phone. I have owned past models and they were not prone to bending. The stainless steel band around the phone would have alleviated this issue. I did not purchase the phone and think that my daily handling would have to change. Shattering my screen or scratching the surfaces have always been an issue, but not putting the phone in my front pocket.
