How hard is it to really post a pic of your bent phone??? It's not 2003. Just snap a pic in a mirror and upload directly from your phone when posting.

The fact that OP has not posted a pic is extremely suspect.

See below.

Not really, the moment you take pictures, MR buries the thread. They don't mind people talking about it, since you get Apple apologists like Surf Monkey and hasanahmad to suggest all sorts of reasons the claim is false or that it's the user's fault. The moment you start posting pictures? Goodbye thread.

I actually posted pictures of my device, the pants I was wearing, and a gif of the curvature. The thread got buried insanely quick. Read what MR user "jpeg42" had to say when he noticed MR's switcharoo:

"Wow... all these threads about the [bending] issue and the mods pick a very clear post that shows proof of a user bending in his pocket (after being harassed last week for not showing proof) to bury in another thread. interesting."

Moral of the story? Don't bury your head in the sand. People's iPhones are bending from normal daily use whether you like it or not.

Oh yeah I remember your thread and pics. That got merged with a thread when yours actually had proof and images, yours should have had it's own thread in my opinion but they merged it anyway.
 
before making the thread take the picture...no need to be smart to do that. dont make the thread first then the pic few days after.

Thanks, but what're you gonna do? MR caters to the contemptuous Apple fanatic crowd. The moment you post something that shines a light on product issues, you have users like "Surf Monkey", "hasanahmad" and "bpeeps" to the rescue. :rolleyes:
 
You cannot argue with hasanahmad– seriously. He's an Apple apologist to the core. Just save yourself the time and frustration.

Says the guy who whined to mods how dare they merge your bent phone into the main thread

Yes i agree he should have had his own thread considering its still isolated how many new threads can you get

Let me get this straight– when I got annoyed that MR buried my thread within an unrelated thread, you think I was whining? But you also agree I should've had my own thread??

You are exhausting.
 
Take it to Apple, get a holster or fanny pack.

Lol, fanny pack.


What's the point of creating this thread without posting a picture for objective proof of the issue? Geez OP. PICTURE or else people will assume it's the camera or your eyes are crooked. POST A PICTURE.

You could have complained to mods but made a thread aboutit
 
If you are within your return period, does it really matter the reason why? Should be able to return or exchange for any reason without a hassle about it..

You are kidding right? If you damage something from your own negligence such as a small crack on the screen you can't return it just because it's within 14 days.

This is why I stuck with my 64 gig 5s
maybe the 6s will fix these issues?

Maybe you shouldn't come to conclusions until you see actual pictures. This is the internet after all. People can say anything. I hope you don't believe everything you read here without physical proof?
 
9 new threads per week, 468 new threads per year. $37,440 value threads ($80x468). :p

I did bring the issue to the mods. I also brought the issue to MR readers.– they have a right to know as well. And I know from past experience that the mods wouldn't reverse their decision.

I do not see where the OP said they cracked their screen or caused any damage. I was referring to the OP's problem. That's why I posted in their thread.

Oh those weren't your words? A bent phone is damage, the same as a cracked screen. I used that as an example.

:rolleyes: Go eat a Snickers. You get cranky when you're hungry.

You are jumping to conclusions that the OP caused the damage.

Please post some pics if it's real. Otherwise why would it be believable? Not saying it's a lie or hasn't happened but burden of proof is on you. Pics or it hasn't happened. That is all.
 
Had phone replaced. Those siting and waiting for a picture, get a life.

Uh, YOU are the one that thought everyone needed to know about your phone, so WHO is the one who needs a life?

No.... FREAK OUT. Everyone loves that person who stands at the Genius Bar screaming about what Apple "owes" them.

Here's your chance to be like them!

Screw "being cool". Being cool never got anyone anything. You have to act like an entitled 4 year old that had his ice cream knocked out of his hand. THAT get's you places.

:D
No no no. You're thinking of Hollywood.
