My take on this? Yeah it's shitty that it could bend in your pocket, but holy fuck that GLASS screen can bend pretty far without exploding.

Maybe when you bend an iPhone you go back in time.... We have discovered time travel here on NS!!!! Millions of dollars for everyone!!!

They did tests, and it doesn't bend any easier than any other phone. It actually takes way less pressure to bend an HTC One.

People should stop sitting on their phones

No shit it's a 7mm amalgamation of battery/circuitboards/glass and aluminium, of course that will bend if you sit on it with your fat ass.



"Our tests show that both iPhones seem tougher than the Internet fracas implies," Consumer Reports' Glenn Derene says. "While nothing is (evidentally) [sic] indestructible, we expect any of these phones should stand up to typical use."

bigger phone = bigger surface area = more leverage = easier to bend.

I dropped mine today on the screen and it slid down the sidewalk like it was on ice but didn't scratch... Can someone explain? New glass? Also, feels same structurally as my 4s so don't know what fatasses are sitting down on something that allows a phone to bend but stop.

Lol and Verizon wants me to trade in my iphone 4. Can't break that fucker. Left it out in the rain, throw it to put it down. Fall on it skiing. Not even a scratch. Shit's a beast.

Really all I've learned from this is that people sit on their phones and think they won't break. I'm a front pocket style kind of guy.

I think its funny that the most durable ones are the "crappy" plastic phones while the high quality metal ones are the most breakable

here is my take on the whole bending issue, if ppl stopped shoving the iphone 6 up their asshole it would not bend.

I like how every new phone release prompts all the tech-savvy losers to surface and argue about shit that nobody cares about.
