I was getting out of my car and the darn thing slipped out of my hand somehow. This thing is so slippery!

Anyway, I scuffed a corner, but it's still not bent.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the iPhone 6 is strong enough to survive a fall onto pavement and still not bend.

Thank you.

Buy Tech 21 Impact Tactical. Slim, trim, low profile, lightweight, sturdy and $35.
 
There is very obvious bending on the right side of the phone... the right side is slightly lifted from the table. Sorry dude.

It's not lifting from the table. You're just seeing the shine on the edge of the table. The phone is flat on the table. Look at the photo enlarged.
 
No wobbles. It's straight. I can't believe that people don't believe a NON-BEND claim. It's not bent. I checked it because I was worried that it might have bent from the fall. Remarkably it's fine.


I call B.S. That photo must be photoshopped. No way could it still be straight.
 
When I drop mine it will not look like that because I use a case! It looks like you should too. ��

People tell me to use a case all the time. Truth is, I don't want to. It adds bulk, looks ugly, covers up the sleek design of the phone, makes it feel plastic-y and I just don't like cases.

I'd rather look at a scratch than use my phone with a ugly thing over the whole iPhone.

Apple should just put the iPhone in a case that you can't take off, but then again, people would cover that up with another case anyway.

Do people cover their cars in a hard plastic case while they're driving? I mean, it could get damaged right?

THIS

the only reason i use a case is for added functionality which is why i went with a leather case that holds two cards such for my drivers license and debit card or cash. Its thin and it adds very minimal protection yet functional.

It's not straight. Zoom and enhance the photo. The device is clearly bent. OP should return it to Apple Store

Thanks for the reassurance. As a side note, if the most bendable object not likely to bend from fall.

It's not bent. You DO realize I can actually inspect the phone myself because it's mine and I'm able to physically hold it right?

I don't need someone on the internet telling me from a photo that my phone looks bent when I can see it for myself in person that it's not.
 
A ding and some bending. Sorry man.

Last time I'm going to say this... there is NO bend. I physically inspected the phone and it's as straight as it's always been since I got it.

Bye now. Enjoy. I was only trying to reassure people that my iPhone was dropped (yes I take responsibility for my actions) and I checked it afterwards and it's still straight. So these things don't bend as easily as some people claim. If it really was as soft as people say, it would've bent on impact, but it didn't.

I feel like MacRumors forums are filled with trolls that will either hate everything Apple related or defend Apple like they're the CEO of the company.

There's obviously a glitch in the Matrix. We must bend your phone immediately to restore integrity of the Matrix's physics engine.
 
What's up with all these sarcasm? Are you above others that you have to post rude remarks? Reading through this thread is like the same person posting over and over again. Just shut it already.

OP, sorry you dropped your phone. That does look like an ouch!

Agreed, leave him alone.

Oh wait, I see it now. Wow, your phone looks like it's a spiral staircase.
 
forget about all this bending...at least your screen is ok. now you can pick out a cool case to cover it.
 
I could never imagine not using a case

I can't either! The fear... I only take my case off when I'm on my bed. With that said a week before the iPhone 6 was announced I decided to get the most out of my iPhone 4 and go caseless :cool: I really enjoyed it and by some merical I didn't drop it at all!

yes, the fear, and also it hurts the resale value. the older model iphone's I've sold have been mint.
