it does look bent... but that might be that i am ocd about this stuff,,, certainly in picture #1 near the buttons (as others have also observed)

it is pretty slight though
 
probably nothing to worry about. it shouldn't get any worse if you handle with care and avoid stressing the affected area

You are right but I can't imagine having to worry about handling my phone with care because it's bent and could bend more if I don't pay attention to it. This flaw with the 6 plus is too much. I returned mine for a 6 and couldn't be happier. I recommend that you do the same.
 
you'll struggle to get an exchange after 14 days... cos it is so subtle...if ANY doubt then RMA for a replacement while you can.

you have nothing to lose
 
The solution is clear: The Utilikilt.

Excuse the blindness of the mindless sheep that are still in the denial stage. Your phone is obviously bent.


He laid it face down on a flat surface and it didn't rock. The photo doesn't prove anything. Lens aboration is just as likely as a bend in that shot. Stop fueling paranoia.

Joke's on you. The 6 is MORE bendable than the 6 Plus according to independent testing.
 
It baffles me how such a thread gets 5 pages of discussion .. This forum keeps surprising me.
 
OP, this post is great. You have everyone here reacting out of their minds. Hilariously done!
 
Why would anyone have envy for a bent phone?

Its Surf Monkey, pay no attention to him. His brain is the equivalent to an actual monkeys brain laced with "Apple can do no wrong" fairy dust.

I also bent my 6 Plus sitting down in a wagon with my family for a haunted hay ride 2 days ago, first time my Plus has ever been in my pocket since I purchased it on the 19th. Its just pointless to even post Bend threads anymore...It solves nothing.

The only options we have is to exchange the phones or wait it out until the 6S comes out with better hardware. Case Closed.
 
Meh. The crazy is mild in this thread so far. No one has been called an idiot, a liar, a child or a troll yet.

DISSAPOINTED!!

I too am dissapointed no one has pointed how how idiotic the OP is.

Wait. Did I just do that? Or was I pointing out that no one had? Or BOTH?

Seems like an optical illusion caused by that glare point to me. I wouldn't normally bother with this, but since I've been semi-trolling this thread I felt the need to contribute something useful. There's really no way to be certain from a photo like this either way, which is why the whole thing is so ridiculous in the first place.

Got it. Thanks for the heads up. I will add him to my ignore list

Point. Completely missed.

"I bought this 6 but deep down I really wanted the 6 Plus. In order to calm my cognitive dissonance I'll now subconsciously buy into every bend story and tacitly believe that the Plus is the inferior device, even though independent tests show that the 6 is structurally weaker and there's no real evidence of a wide spread bending problem with either version."

Colloquially we have a term for this: "sour grapes."

Clearer now?

Sure. Because launching a baseless attack on my character sparked by what was obviously a joke makes YOU the bigger man.

Your post is an example of why this place is endlessly amusing.
 
No problem. Im pretty sure half the forum has him on Ignore too.

You should really look into acquiring a sense of humor.

Watch out! Pointing out the obvious will get you placed on ignore and castigated as an idiot!
