I dont think OJ was defended as hard by his multi-million dollar paid legal team as people try to blindly hero Apple for no apparent reason (who would take every penny in your pocket if they legally could)

How much less force might be a question? Again, no measurements of force. Easier, probably. Hope I don't come back crying. So forgive my give and take.

If the bend don't fit you can't convict! 😉 I've gotta say the naysayers may not actually own a new iPad. If they do show me the bend and circumstances.

Hhmmmm I guess just buy it but also get an otterbox or some thick case as a precaution. 😉

Exactly they destroy a $1300 iPad because they are going to make so much more from clicks on the video
But is this the Apple distortion field again? So because one doesnt own something we should just negate the evidence in the videos and photos presented here?
I don't need to stick my hand up a cow's butt to know it doesn't look fun either.

Sorry you can't give the iPad Pro a chance. But I respect your concern,

Who knows? AppleCare. I'd like to see how that goes down? 😛

Pretty much my thoughts on the matter. All iPads have been bendable. This one maybe a touch easier, but use your iPad like you have used every other iPad and you will be fine.
I did the ruler test on my 2nd gen 12.9 and both the screen and back not perfectly uniform flat. Like less than a mm in spots just like the pro 11.

Jeez I can’t believe this is a thing. Zach at Jerryrig makes his living off of bashing Apple. He’s so purposely biased for his fanboys its comical and he doesn’t try to hide it.
But, a Scorching retort:

Jesus. Look at how much force it took to bend THAT tablet. He couldn’t even get it to outright snap in half like the new iPad Pro does. Snaps like a kit kat bar

I wish we could just put it through a more scientific test to see once and for all. Like an undamaged iPads pro right out of the box bent with a machine and a counter that shows the pounds of force applied. That vs the other tablet and the results.To be fair, Zach of Jerry Rig Everything is MUCH stronger.
Because just from my eyes, the iPad Pro just snapped in an almost comical “this stuff is weak as paper” kinda way whereas the other tablet: the guy REALLY had to try to bend it proving exact opposite point. Yeah it bends. But the level at which it does is much much harder

So far my iPad Pro hasn’t gone boiled noodle in my hand. This concern about the iPad has jumped the shark.

Isn’t that a bigger tablet and a different dude bending it?
in terms of grip and force applied how exactly did you measure that it took much more force to bend this tablet?

It’s a non-issue!
With iPhone 6 bendgate within 24hrs of unbox therapy’s video release you had thousands of examples on Instagram,Twitter and Facebook. The complaints were widespread
Look now, there’s only a handful of people complaining on here some of them don’t even show us a picture so we don’t know how genuine they are.
What you see in this case is really talk about someone’s video bending an iPad....purposely
