Hey guys. I can vouch for the bindability and breakabilityx of the iPhone 6&6+, as i did in fact break them. It does take some force to do it, so doubtfully everyone is going to do it, but yes, it is possible. But as I own a samsung phone now, i can say that if i tried, I could break this one just as easy as the apple devices. It is what happens the thinner you make stuff, the flimsier it will be. doug > On Feb 4, 2015, at 10:55 AM, Sarah k Alawami <marri...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I would not get all bent out of shape over this.
