He doesn't have any proof.
Just paid to disseminate FUD just like Samsung did it in Taiwanese forums to spread lie about newcoming HTC phones. Got caught, though.
Got a tip for us?

I'm just going to stop you right there, as you are totally 100% wrong and that invalidates everything you are trying to say. Steve Jobs was certainly alive and aware of the ipod touch with it's protruding camera that is now 2 years old.
Try again please, apple is innovating as much as ever with apple pay and apple watch, and there were hiccups and mini fails all the time with Jobs in charge.
Probably because they drop them.
I was never bothered sitting on my 4S but was always afraid of dropping it every time I handled it (because there's no point in the design if you're going to hide it in a case).
The most beautiful design, but not practical at all (typical Apple)
I am using iPhone 5C... The best iPhone ever produced. I like the heft and the build quality. Only complain is iPhone 5C looks ugly when filled with fingerprints and smugs.
Look at the numbers of the phone they have on the shelves in stores. Those phones still function after years of being left in stores
Suck it up Yve! You forgot to create a small 3mm ridge along the battery compartment to increase longitudinal rigidity. Better hurry up and impliment the change for the next 25 mil 6plus.
My brand new i6+ doesn't bend the slightest. All the bs crap these android dookie devices can go f a goat. Apple sells more than they do and I absolutely stand by their products. Haters are in full force.
These are all harmless, fun pokes at apple. These companies (except Samsung) could use the publicity. The sad part is that despite these jabs, I don't think it will cause anyone interested in a 6+ to choose one of these other phones. At best it will reassure owners of those devices that they made a good choice.
I hadn' thought of that. Perhaps this would have been less an issue if they had the sapphire glass to give it more strength. We could be looking at a flaw borne of necessity (can you imagine the impact of Apple not launching a new phone in the fall?). Tough business decision to sacrifice brand image to keep up with other expectations. There may not have been a "right" call here.
No, its fine, I am paranoid.
I am sure that the guy in cotton trousers just sat with metal phone in his FRONT cotton pockets and melted the metal with his body heat and bent the phone with documented force exceeding hundreds of pounds just sitting idly.
I am paranoid, thank you.
There was guy in another thread telling me to take a physics class.
So I think the idea is, if you want to know whether you can keep your phone in your pocket, you need to take a physics class.
Samsung makes a solid TV, their UHD a are great, their top of the line plasmas was as well, still Panny is king of all and those new one they have coming out soon that will match plasma but in a lcd is going to be killer. And how did the Sony win? Due to your opinion? I've had Sony, Samsung and Panny TVs all are great and each has its pros over the other, but IMHO Panny makes the best TVs right now.
See that's the thing everyone seems to be missing if carrying a phone conveniently in your pocket is the TOP priority for someone, then get a smaller device. If having a small computer (laptop replacement) with you all the time is your TOP priority, then get a larger device and figure how to better transport it. Last I checked there were still multiple size phones out there so folks can pick what they want and what best fits THEIR needs. Does not make one or the other a "design flaw" but rather a choice.
Carrying groceries in a grocery sack is typically how you transport groceries but you probably would not carry a load of bricks in that same sack. More than likely common since would dictate using a wheelbarrow instead.
Because they would hope that negative press for apple would drive users to consider their phones. Unfortunately that hasn't really ever seemed to happen.
I thought of that as well but is it true that sapphire bends less than gorilla glass?
It wasn't that apple didn't test it, they just decided to only make it that strong, which obviously a bunch of people have a problem with that choice.
