How to stop 6 Plus bending?

So who wants to go in on this with me on Kickstarter? I'm a graphic designer but I could try my hand at fashion design. I like to think that I have good taste. Anybody have experience with manufacturing and logistics partners?
Not if the pocket is deep enough that the phone is against the flat part of your leg. If it's touching your bent thigh area at all, that's when there's a problem.
Don't touch it. Touch it and it bends. It bends fast. Faster than you can believe. Don't Put it in your pocket. Don't wear tight clothes. And don't touch it. Good Luck.
People assume that bending is a strict progression of cause to effect, but *actually* from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big rectangle of bendy wendy... Wibble-y wobbley... stuff.
Lmao honestly the easiest things to do are get a case or not put it in your pocket.

Wrong. Titanium case like an element case will prevent bending. The famous otter box as you call it is plastic crap.
Go outside. They are everywhere. By the way, you just met someone that always pockets his Note 3. Hello.
I've seen the video, and I can't imagine who could sit with the phone pressing up against their body as hard as that guy was squeezing and not feel uncomfortable and remove the phone from their pocket. I'm a girl with small tight front pockets and so I'm always removing my phone when I sit, even without a phablet, BECAUSE I CAN FEEL IT.
Basically, change your lifestyle for the 'precious'
I suppose if someone buys an item that doesn't fit their lifestyle, despite being given a choice of 2 sizes, then yes, I think it's reasonable for them to change their lifestyle for the 'precious'.
I do see them everywhere, I just haven't seen anyone pulling one out of a pant pocket. Always a jacket, purse, or backpack. Glad to make your acquaintance though
To be honest, I don't see many Note 3s in actual use. A few Samsung Galaxy S4s, sure. But the couple of note 3 users I've seen pretty much treated their Note's much like you would an iPad mini.
Or.. Apple could, for once, let go of their fixation with slimness and make a device that'll withstand normal daily handling.
Wait for the next iPhone Plus S for steel. If you can't wait buy a solid steel case for it
I just thought of something, wasn't Apple working on a bendy phone, maybe they invented it without knowing.

The stupidity over this entire issue is mind boggling. If you are cramming and sitting in ANY phone with enough force to bend it (even aluminum) wouldn't you feel "uncomfortable". I mean really, it would be like crapping your pants and walking around like it doesn't stink. It isn't right to have a rigid phone in your pocket and you bend or sit on it with enough force to cause damage.....and then act SHOCKED when it is damaged.
I'm sorry, but unless your phone came out of the box, bent, you misused the product. Common sense goes a long way and I think the bigger issue is the current generation of people who think because they spent money on a product that it should include limitless warranties to cover their stupidity in using the product.

Is the case pretty pliable when it's off the phone? if it bends fairly easily, then your phone will be able to bend with it on. I have a Spigen hard shell thin case that doesn't really bend much. It's like adding a plastic back panel to the phone. Probably becomes as sturdy as a note 3 with the plastic back panel.
