iPhone 6+ bendgate issue.

Forget the bending, I just think that for everyday real world use the 6 is a better choice. Having played around with both models I find the 6 plus to be the wrong side of comfortable.

Do you have your iPhone 6 in your pocket with no case? (If you dont, dont comment saying 'well mine is ok')

If so, please make a video of it on a flat surface, press each corner down, then tell us your phone has not suffered a single bit of bend.

If you think because it's not as bent as these stupid youtube videos then there is not a problem you are wrong.

The phone does not stay perfectly straight after what is looking like upto a week of use.

Please post a picture of your bent 6+.
 
I like the comments from the CEO of T-Mobile USA to Geekwire this week. His language is colourful, so I won't be posting a link here as I'm not that desperate for a ban-hammering.
 
Got my 6+ on Friday. I tested it right out of the box on two different surfaces by placing it screen down and shining a light behind it. I can basically see the light bleed through the central 1/3.

You can't really tell it's bent otherwise as it's not obvious enough but I guess it's not perfectly flat either. If that's as bad as it gets then I'm not bothered.
 
From the average of 50lbs to 70 lbs (240-280n).. I can see that easily being met if someone is wearing jeans and sits down quickly. I can the 6 for me is a nono, its just too big and you can't store it on yourself easily. I mean nothing I have has pockets that big and you can't fit it in your bra, you have to put it in your purse and then its ripe for someone to steal on a night out.

Going back to the Jeans issue, it might not exhert a lot of force for along time but the sheer shock pressure of you sitting down with it in your pocket will see it easily bend.
 
Wouldn't that affect the seal and hence water retention? I'd definitely take that back mate, doesn't sound good at all.

I took so much care of my last iPhone but that doesn't mean others will, i.e. my co-worker dropped mine into a bowl of soup. ****.

No, the glass is tight against the frame.

I'm very careful around rain/liquids anyway.
 
Ive had my 6+ since launch and love the thing. I'm getting a bit paranoid about this bending issue. If i lie mine face down the phone is not completely flat with a slight gap underneath the central part of the phone.

Only very slight. Is anyone else's the same?
