I have a 128gb iphone6. If that bends, I lost a lot of money.

However, one day I left it in my back pocket, sat down in the bucket seat of a Audi Quattro S1 from 1985 and was driven around a race track by a three time German rally cross champion, most of it sideways. This car does 0-62 in 3.1 sec mind you.

Anyhow, realized in horror that I sat on my phone, but it wasn't bend, so I think, no need to baby it.

Not with my 6. I treat it like my prior iPhones, it lives in only a leather Apple case. It's been in my front pocket every day and I work as an auto technician, so I'm sure I've bumped into it in my pocket and still no issues. It's hit the floor once too, still perfect. I will keep using it the same way too.
I do however see how the plus is of weaker structure so that was one of my reasons getting the 6 and keeping my iPad mini retina.
 
I was so paranoid the first week... Thanks to all the retards and Samsung paid trolls... I've been using my iPhone 6 as I did my 4S... Been almost 3 weeks... And no issues... And now I'm sure there'll be none... :) Scratches on the back might be a different story... As my phone tends to scrape a lot of surfaces...

P.s. My phone goes naked as all my previous phones... And I do quite a bit of riding during the day... And still no issues...

Do you sit on it (have it in your back pocket) ?
 
I treat my 6 Plus the same way I have treated every other iPhone I have had. With kid gloves for the first week or two, and after that I remember its just a phone and never worry about how I treat it again.
 
bend gate is by far the dumbest "issue" any phone had to face. Not to mention your walking around with an expensive piece of hardware, put the freakin thing in a case. I know we like to see our phones naked but it's not worth it.
 
When your iPhone bends, what are you going to think then?

for some...

*self blaming
*throw more money at Apple for another phone
*worship the phone.

Seriously, some will never utter anything negative about their phone, it's ridiclous

I actually had a denier argue that if you aren't willing to buy multiples of a phone you can't afford it or some @#$%. The logic of these fools belies belief.

I sat on it once... It was lying on my bed... But, no I do not keep it in my back pocket... I know how to take care of an expensive ($1000!!) gadget... :p

It stays in my front pocket all the time... Even while I am riding...

Well, thats ok but when I watched the video from Apple showing their testing lab they did show the sitting test so they DO expect people to have it in the back pocket and sit on it so it is meant to be used like that.
That is actually my only concern. Everything else I don't care. :)
 
5 weeks, no bending:cool:

I don't believe you. Do you have sufficient proof that your iPhone is not bent? Where are the pictures? We need pictures or else you're just lying.

Also, even if you show us pictures of your un-bent iPhone, how do we know you didn't use Photoshop to straighten it out? I mean, you could be an Apple fanboy that will do anything to show that Apple can do no wrong.

You can't prove that it's not bent… we only have your word to go on and that's not enough.
