And so we have Bendgate!
Wonder what Apple's excuse is going to be? 'You're putting it in your pants wrong' ?

Or maybe they'll start making clothing and call it "iPants". hehehe...
All of a sudden, phones made out of plastic, doesn't seem so bad after all.
Anyway, the author of the video above, who made this...
...TRIED to repair it by bending it back. Which resulted in cracking the screen!
So whether it is "infused with ions" or not... it cracks just like any other screen after all.
cheers!

Users say Apple's new device bends in pockets
http://www.standard.co.uk/new[....]n-trouser-pockets-9752681.html
If you do manage to torque your spendy, bendy new iPhone 6 Plus, there could be consequences. Batteries and displays are not meant to bend, unless they’re designed to do so from the outset, like the curved LG G Flex smartphone (which even has special curved batteries to accommodate its form factor).
“LCDs are made with delicate front and back glass panels. Even if they don’t break, putting mechanical stress on them could affect the critical alignment between the front and back glass layers, which would then significantly affect the display performance and image quality,” said Raymond Soneira, a display expert and president of DisplayMate.
If your display panel gets damaged, you could experience issues like brightness irregularities at the edge of the screen, dead pixels, or colors striping across the screen.

Maybe its a secret way of making it bend around your wrist ??
Secretly Apple want this to be the iWatch ?
That or a complete lack of product testing as always by Apple, that's what happens when you run a business that's purely profit driven first, quality control second. Or third, or fourth, or more.

If this true. Apple have now a ULTRA MASSIVE problem.
The thing with aluminium is that is stay in shape when you bend it because it's a very soft metal.
How hard can it be to calculate how much force a object handle under pressure ?? (length. Wide. Thinness, etc)
It's one of one mathematic on college.
this can (and probably will) result that Apple have to pull back every single 6+, I'm not kidding. Wait and see.
No one is going to buy 6+ after seeing this video.

Camera comparison- iphone 6+ is the winner
Camera comparison iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus vs iPhone 5s, Galaxy S5, LG G3, Lumia 1520, Xperia Z2, HTC One (M8) ...
In fact, we can confidently say that the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are two of the best cameraphones we've had the chance to test so far. Both produce excellent photos and videos with their 8MP cameras, be it in day- or night-time. Add their ease of use to the mix and you get a camera that's tough to beat.
Now would be a good time to reiterate that the iPhone 6 Plus has a slightly better camera. This became obvious when we compared its night-time photos against those from the iPhone 6. But the difference is rather minor, and unless you're very serious about the quality of your photos, the iPhone 6 should do just fine for your needs.

You can't really predict how much force would be applied to a phone. What you can predict is that the thinner the phone, the more suceptible to bending it is. There goes the price for going all thin as hell

the camera on 6+ is one of the best no question about it. but Apple going to have pull back 6+ i think.
@admad..??? of course you can test, calculate or even test the phone in real world before you start to sell it.

Or maybe they can make an AD campaign discouraging people from putting it in their pants?
Coincidentally, most of the complaints are from men... women iphone owners usually have a purse or handbag.
Another solution would be to put a metallic casing on it... probably magnesium, titanium, or more aluminum to keep it light. But using something like that, will make it thick, which defeats one of the qualities that people like about the phone - its thinness.
Or maybe Apple will just do what they did with "Antennagate" and the free bumpers... this time, they'd give away free reinforced metallic casings to the public.
cheers!
