Who's iPhone 6 has bent then!?

[TuckRS]

Well it won't do it by itself will it.

No bends here. I though it was only stupid people that would bend an iPhone.

Have you tried the new charging method called 'wave'. You can microwave it for 1m50s for a quick 10% charge.

Oh and there's already a thread about the iPhone 6, and this has already been discussed in there.....

What an attitude you have!

Don't fear there's a repair kit out already!

What's the ducttape for?

Only thing I can think of is to tape eyes closed to stop the constant tears xD

 

[philmots]

LOL there's some funny s**t out now..

In fairness I'm far from an Apple fan boy, I just like(d) their solid products. I do quite like to see them f**k up - a bit like Man U.

Isn't it lovely seeing them going down the pan?

 

[McGherkin]

I love the fanboys defending the s**t out of it and iOS8.

I put my iPhone 4 in my pocket earlier. I was afraid to take it out again because it's completely normal for a phone to bend in your pocket. It was ok though, thank f**k.

Has anyone checked to see if it's a real design issue or is Apple just collaborating with Uri Geller now?

 

[leeds2592]

I honestly can't believe how a company as big Apple have spent millions developing and testing the new 6's and haven't come across this problem. It absolutely baffles me!

They might claim it's not a problem....

TBH they know that 90% of people who own an iPhone will stay with them. They could make it out of cardboard and people would still buy it, with some defending it when it goes soggy when wet!

 

[Gareth]

Knowing Apple, they probably won't accept there is an issue.

 

[Waitey]

We tried it with an old Moto Razr we have here.

Well it didn't bend, it snapped.

 

[leeds2592]

They will, it's Apple.

New funky design feature IIRC.

 

[Gally]

No I said, they will claim there is no problem, simply user error.

 

[leeds2592]

Oh, I know - User error, putting it in your pocket, typical Apple.

I'll stick with my 4S.

FLOL!

 

[brisa4984]

If you have it in your front pocket, I think it all depends whether you have it vertical or horizontal in there. Vertical shouldn't be an issue but horizontal might be, and it's quite a tall phone.

no.. it will catch a fat portion of your thigh and hip bone.. it is possible to bend it in a vertical position

 

[dajones]

surely apple would have picked this up in basic product testing? the last phone i had that bent was the Sony Ericsson W880i

Must say i am impressed with the screen being able to take the stress of the phone bending though.

It's about time we had somewhere for Android fan boy on the forum.

It's more concerning for the battery than anything imo, generally they don't like to be bent!

 

[182Matt]

Case ordered for mine after hearing all this

 

[banther]

Maybe some for of bracing case is needed.

Like a roll cage for the iPhone.

 

[Leel82]

Apple will replace bent iPhones more here Clicky

 

[leeds2592]

Replacing bent phones with the same design that will most definitely bend again

 

[MarkCup]

Exactly. Where do they go with this as it's definitely something that needs addressing, but how?

A free case a la "you're holding it wrong"?

 

[Leel82]

I dare say theyll be working on a fix for it, they wont recall, simply offer replacements where needed. If it bens in x amount of years theyll replace it with the newer build? IDK, just shooting in the dark here.

 

[Diagro]

Guess what?

My note 3 is Bigger and made of plastic.

It does bent when in tight jeans, But guess what? ITS PLASTIC, SO just bends back

 

[banther]

You have the coolest stories.

[SC03OTT]

A thread full of people commenting about a phone they don't even have. Yet when the same thing happens in a car thread, it's all "You've never even driven one bruv".

LOL

If I see a bent car, regardless of having driven that specific model or not, I think I'm still qualified to say that the bent car in front of me is bent.

You disagree?

 

[jam.]

This whole thing is monumentally f**king stupid.

 

[dajones]

 

[Mr Plums]

What ever happened to a phone where people simply dial a number and talk to each other.

I dont get all this new technology ballax, its a load of crap if you ask me.

 

[Addicted]

LOL!

 

[Geddes]

lol at this, IPhone at its best, not. iPhone 6 take II
