Bent iPhone 6+ right out of the box

Possible. I mean, they are cranking out a ton of these per day. There is the slight possibility that some defective or damaged products might slip through.

We don't even know if the minor bends are considered "defective" or "damaged" by the QC folks inspecting these things. There will always, ALWAYS, be variation in a manufacturing process. Nothing is perfect.

So, three things happened, based on your post:
1.) Someone at the factory bent it and then it got boxed.
2.) Someone at the Apple Store bent it and closed it back up.
3.) It bent on "it's own", through handling or something. And got boxed back up and shipped.

I think at this point, we can all agree that the iPhone 6 Plus can be bent. the question is, to what extent? Are all current phones going to bend over time and usage, or is it simply bad batches of phones that are susceptible?

Not really. Anything can bend

If you don't bend your phone (ie: sit on it, bang on something or whatever) it will not bend.

This thread just proves that sometimes in the manufacturing process things aren't perfect. Nothing new to anyone that has bought anything ever.

There is nothing to take from this thread.

be careful around here

there are people who will accuse you of bending the phone on purpose. they will say that you are a samsung troll.

in all seriousness i hope this gets resolved for you as quickly as possible.

Read the post. It was already resolved.
