I’m no fan of this thing. Some might say I’m even a detractor. But has it crossed anyone’s mind that just because these owners say it wasn’t mishandled, doesn’t necessarily make it so. I mean, anyone can make the reasonable argument that it should be tough, but let us not forget the number of users who claim that their iPhone or iPad bent itself while laying flat on a table.
 
Dear Customer,
Congratulations, you just unlocked the Dynamic Rift™. Instructions will follow up shortly.

It's an undocumented feature
 
Unpopular opinion but this why you should always wait for second or third gen, especially at that price!
Even just waiting for gen 1.1 will help. These devices are constantly being changed to reduce costs and also resolve ongoing issues. The later iPhone 6 Plus had changes made to make the folding in someones back pocket less of an issue for example.
 
The entire idea of seeing someone’s “eyes” through the front really seems as silly as it sounded at the announcement. It doesn’t seem to look very good, and now it also has allowed for a flaw in the front plastic see-through cover as well. Even if I was considering buying an AVP I’d wait and see if Apple releases one without this stupid ”feature” in a cheaper package.
