Got a redmi note 7 woke up to find it bent.maybe I may have put it in my pocket earlier not sure cos I'm a lady, I carry a purse mostly.my phone did not stop working gratefully and neither did the screen touch. .I'm happy about that ,it only just seems awkward sporting a visibly bent phone ,gives it the feeling of using a substandard phone and always raises eyebrows from others.the gorilla glass broke at the second fall ,I admit on stone so...will not be risking buying another phone from xiaomi because of the bending issue,even though I did fall in love with this phone I just won't take that chance .
ps ...I have replaced with another brand but I find I still love the redmi. Why did you just have to bend?????

Normal people do not do this.
Instead of Jerry trying to twirl with his fingers, he should sit and pretend to be a normal person.

He often does worst case scenarios that you almost never can experience in a regular phone use and he even stated it a lot of times in his videos.

Hardly can call it "spectacular" fail. Jerry.... erm... Zack himself said thai the phone put up a good fight before cracking and applied a massive amount of bend pressure to break it - something that it's almost impossible in real life situations, unless you want intentionally to break your phone. During an actial drop test I am pretty sure it will crack just like 2 -3 times more expensive glass phones with similar construction. And also during crash tests by Redmi staff the applied physical forces have different direction than on a bend test and lets be honest - its a 150$ phone with top notch specs and looks, some manufacturing compromises are more than logical. Just buy a 5$ case and don't think too much about it.

hmm, 27 Feb 2019We soon forget about Nokia. They are boring old design and ... moreThe "boring old design" WAS the special thing about the first gen HMD Nokias. Sadly not anymore. I may swap my Smartisan for the original Nokia 8 if it ever hits 250-300 Euros. when the Smartisan fails completely (dunno if the network issues have sth to do with the latest FW or with the physical component wear)?
