iPhone 5 or earlier iPhone 5c popped out of plastic casing

[cynics]

Ok excuse my ignorance but someone was scared to push down too hard in fear of the glass shattering? So instead of pushing with your fingers you put the glass/plastic phone in your month and bite down on it? Am I following so far?

Then other people think this is a good idea and do it too? And it's working?!

One of the many ways I enjoy the evolution of the Internet. Tell one person to drink bleach & thousands of people poison themselves.

The Internet plump full of lemmings.

Take it to apple. But that looks like the slate iPhone 5 in a 5c case.

Reminds me of this :

Nokia 5510 which apparently contains a Nokia 3310 Came as a shock when I took of the back cover of mine at the time.

Wow

Shows just how rubbish of quality the 5C is. Pity.

 

[brady34]

Exact same thing happened to me in the exact same place!!

 

[Smartass]

now thats funny, one of first threads about iphone 5c and already how something is wrong with it. Everything's wrong with this phone obviously

 

[Steve686]

There goes that great 5c build quality. Hilarious that people are actually telling you to bite your phone.

Build quality is fine. It will pop out a bit after a fall. The option is for the phone to have no give like the 5s, 5, 4s, and 4, and transfer all the energy into the internals or the screen. Result:broken screen.

This little pop out of the device is a better result of a drop.

 

[MacRazySwe]

Hahaha, you should've removed the plastic all-together.. It would've looked like an iPhone 5! ...A better looking phone, IMO.

We had a business 5C do this. I just took the frame off using the two bottom screws and a suction cup (similar to how you'd replace the screen). I was then able to set it back in firmly and screw it back together. No problems since.

Still weird, though. He CLAIMS he never dropped it.

Give new meaning to "taking a bite of the Apple"

 

[hlh]

Hi so the same exact thing happened to my iPhone, did you take it to the store? What happened, could they replace it for you?

 

[Rocko1]

lay it on a text book, glass down, push evenly on the back. Done.

Another white 5c!!! Why are there so many of them?! Its for the color!

It's funny because I got the white 5c too. However I didn't buy it for color. I bought it because I don't like the 5/5s and wanted LTE and IMO the phone looks much better then the 5/5s.

I do understand what you are saying though... My fiancée got the blue one...

But if your one you might as well get a color. I like he blue one the best.

I do like the blue one better then the othe colors. My fiancée has the blue one. It's the color Apple did best with I believe

I had mine pop out this morning and first put it in a preheated oven to heat up the plastic a bit just few minutes. Then I just put some vice grips on it and turned ill it popped in place.

 

[carjakester]

While this may have worked for you, I absolutely wouldn't recommend it. You risk teeth marks in your plastic housing, shattered glass in your mouth, or even damaging your teeth.

Kids these days

The secret is out... the 5C is actually an iPhone 5 molded inside a plastic case

Eh I wouldn't be surprised if that was actually what they did.
