            Trying to defend the iPhone is like trying to defend the reason you paid $1000 for a $200 phone.

              Wow. Expensive crap using cheap materials. I wonder how much is their markup on each unit. I bet 1 unit costs 20 dollars to make.

                  If I'm not mistaken, the iPhone in the Twitter picture posted in the article is the regular (non-Plus) model. Wouldn't it then be correct to say that this issue is affecting all iPhone 6 units?

                  Honestly, I'm flabbergasted that Apple let this be released. It could seriously affect their reputation for top-notch hardware...

                      Anonymous, 24 Sep 2014big deal! just flip it over and sit on it the same way you did.1) These are people putting it in their FRONT pockets
                      2) Bending it back will crack the screen (watch both the videos)
                      3) They are genuine apple devices
                      4) Its so sad you brought the iBanana 6.

                                    feel so sorry for the people who pay crazy sums of money for a BLACK MARKET iPhone 6.


                                    good luck getting apple to take it back.

                                        The author isn't being quite fair in not mentioning that the Note 3 springs back after bending.
