Warped iPhone6

Being the first to use the iPhone6 turns out to be a disadvantage. The launching of the new Apple product was greet with the same enthusiasm. People were willing to camp overnight to get a good spot in the queue to buy it. Others would pay an exorbitant premium just to be early user of the product. These users are not complaining that the phone warped under pressure.

Design Flaw

The unexpected design has been widely reported on the Internet and has already been dubbed "bend-gate." Users complained that the metal is too soft and it bends under pressure after being carried around in their pocket for long periods of time. With a thinner and larger aluminum body, the phone just don't stand up to the wear and tear of staying in a pocket, the CBS News reported on 24 Sep 2014.


My Comments

An article dated 25 Sep 2014 in Bloomberg says you could just bend it back to shape. I am sure there will be very little dents that can't be seen.
