Well my bendy iPhone 6 plus is still arrow strait after just over a year, I'm sure I'll survive with this one.

These 'tests' are completely irrelevant imo.
I'd only be concerned if I started hearing about any bending from multiple amounts of people who have used it in everyday situations. Because that's how i'd use a phone, too.

the first video maybe but this 2nd video OUCH that looks bad foe Nexus
Now how come he gets two bloody phones and i cant even get one

The 2nd video is much more believable considering it's a fresh handset out of the box!
I wonder what Google have to say about it, gonna keep an eye on r/android...

What a waste of a nexus 
A little worrying though, nothing a hard back case would not combat

Given there's been no reports of the phone bending in peoples pockets etc I don't really think it's a concern. You're an idiot if you keep you're phone in back pocket and sit on it anyway but other "bend" videos show the phone to be very resilient. Non issue.

To cancel my pre-order or not, that is the question?
Again, why? Everyone is going on about cancelling it. Doing so is only going to delay getting one further, unless you're happy trying your luck for a 32GB from CPW...

Look how easy it bent. I think the P stands for 'Pathetic'. I have a pre-order of the 32gb from CPW.

Anyone have an issue with their accelerometer/gyro on their 6P? I'm thinking mines faulty, the first sign was Google Fit, telling me I've done 45,000 steps in a day (when Moto Body said I've done 5,000!)...
Next I noticed that my Live Wallpaper Minima wasnt very smooth in its motions and kept on freaking out even when held as still as I could.
The phone works fine in general & rotates fine etc. It just seems extremely jumpy. Anyone elses have this same issue?

Looks like the answer is yes then, you should definitely cancel.
You've already convinced yourself you're not going to like based on your previous posts in this thread. Just cancel your order and save us all for your inevitable whinging

My previous posts seem to valid from how things are looking. You're on a forum so I'm suprised you're not used to 'whinging'. If I want to 'whinge', I will 'whinge', whether you like it or not.
Well that's me told!
But I'm not sure what you're getting at. General message from reviews are "its the best android phone available" - if that isn't what you're after then maybe an iPhone would be more suitable? They are also very good phones and don't have amoled screens.

I want the phone to be good but when you see it fall to pieces in someone's hands then its extremely concerning, even more so when he proceeds to explain how poorly the internals are constructed. Everything I have mentioned has been a result of what I have either read or seen. I have always preferred android and I wouldn't dream about switching to an iPhone. I have prefer pure Android too so its not like I have many options available.
