Exactly why I say I'm happy with polycarbonate, metal phones seem to have all kinds of weird build issues and even RF issues in some cases.
Last phone I owned with metal was the Nokia N80, the metal was very prone to dents.

With rumors of the Galaxy S5 coming with what maybe a metal body, I hope Samsung take notes and don't create disasters like their Japanese rival:
Xperia Z1 frame bending for no reason, claim users

I'm quite happy with polycarbonate, all Samsung need to do is make it thicker like on the Nokias, I feel like metal really is overrated on phones, the iPhone proved that, so did the Htc One which can dent easily after a drop, and now the Z1.
Keep trolling with the snide remarks. The comments in XB explain it. Only idiots would fall for it, which explains what we have here I suppose.

And the Sony defense rolls in
Very odd that this many users have complained about a similar issue, but yeah, maybe they all got together and decided to purposely damage their Z1s.

Or, you know, as anyone with at least half a brain cell would, that they accidentally sat on it or something...
You should stick to fantasizing about the next greatest built in feature since multi-item clipboards, available on any android smartphone with access to the play store thanks to free apps.
But, because you are limited to the intellectually starved iPA audience comment sections, I'll paste XB if it's so scary to go there. Here you go: (courtesy of kevinlow commenting on this article

(I am an engineer)
To debunk the heat argument: We can rule out heat and heat alone as the cause, because heat cannot permanently deform aluminium as long as it stays below melting point. Yes, below melting point things still deform, but they bounce back after the heat is removed, like the spring in your thermostat needle. Heating aluminium enough so that it is bendable by smaller forces than usual is also ruled out, because the amount of heat needed to do this is at the level of a blowtorch. The fact that the phone still works, and the undamaged plastic bits in the areas where the aluminium is bent show that this level of heat was not reached. So we can conclusively say that a force, not temperature, caused this deformation (forces can be external or internal).
The only source of large internal forces in a smartphone that I am aware of is from failed Lithium ion batteries expanding. The pictures supplied clearly show that this is not the case, since there is no evidence of the phone bulging in the area where the battery is installed.
This only leaves me to conclude that the most likely cause of the damage is from external forces, the sources of which I leave to your imagination.

Away, sounds like this has been eating you up bud, like you just had to get it off your chest, shame.

Your url didn't work, rather save your excuses over Sony's mistakes for the other zealots, keep it moving.
Cheers!
