Now that's admittedly something that I don't do.  I probably should though.

It is also important to remember when putting the phone into a pocket,
including the shirt pocket, to keep the touch-screen toward your body for
protection.

and that, my fellow listers, is why we aught to be careful about a few
things when we put our new physically bigger, and thinner iDevices in our
sky rockets.

The size of the pocket, as well as it's location is a big factor in whether
or not your phone's going to bend. if you have it in your back pocket
righere the fleshy end of your bum is when you squat on your dot, is most
assuredly after a few hours going to cause the issue you hope to avoid to
manifest itself.

do bare in mind that it does take a good deal of pressure to make these
things bend and personally unless it's entirely accidental, I don't see any point in testing it, putting the results up on youtube and moaning about it, unless of course, I'm a silly ass. but, I don't look much like a donkey, and
don't considermyself silly enough to pull off a stunt like that. just be
mindful of where teh phones are located upon your personage when you sit or
put yourself in a position that might cause the thing to bend. that's all.

Hi Chris,

I think he answered it perfectly. Your last comment was that you wanted to
know if you were being paranoid or not. To not be bent out of shape is to
not worry so much about it. I know one person whose iPhone 6 bent, but
they were sitting on it at the time, and it was in their pocket. It sounds
like yu take good care of your iPhone, and if it's still working fine, I
don't think you should have a problem.

OK,

No offense intended, and I know you meant well, but I wasn't asking for a
smarty pants answer, with all due respect.  Normally, your comment would
have been funny, yes, but I am truely seeking the answer to a very
legitimate question here, and I feel that your message added practically
nothing to the discussion.

Chris.

bending?


OK guys,

I've heard horror story after horror story about the IPhone 6, and 6 Plus
bending.  I'm admittedly now a little probably worked up over the hife.

I'm probably being way over over paranoid, and normally, I don't fall for
crap like this, but I will admit.  Out of its case, my new IPhone 6 Plus
does! feel very very flimsy. It feels like it would definitely take some
force to do it, and I'm obviously! not about to try it intentionally,
thank
you very much? but! is it more just hife, and just people trying to bash
Apple and make a stink?  I know that there are plenty of Youtube videos
out
there of people bending the phones purposely to show that it indeed can
and
will bend.  This said, I have a Pelican protector case.  Earlier tonight
I
tried taking the thing off temporarily so I could show the bare phone to
my
mom, as she'd never seen a 6 of any sort before, let alone, a 6 Plus.
This
case is so snugged on the thing that pealing it off the back of the phone
literally! almost takes the jaws of life!  NO pun to the screen reader
intended.  LOL!  I swear when I did take it out, it felt like after
trying
to put it back in, I didn't slide it up quite far enough to the top edge
of
the case, therefore it was a little crookid. When I took it out again to
reposition it, I swear it felt like it had bent a slight bit.  I think
I'm
probably just paranoid though.  Most likely it didn't bend, and if it
did,
it would have been so slight that it eventually seems to a fixed itself.
Again, I know I'm probably having you look at me and go... Doo'ood,
Really?I
mean, O? Kayyy.  I never said! it couldn't! happen, don't get me wrong,
but
do you all agree with what AT&T and Apple both are telling me, that the
people who did! do this, were mistreating the phones badly, whether be
purposely or not?

I heard about one dude who literally apparently bent the thing on quote
unquote, accident, so badly that the thang literally caught fire!  So,
yeah...  I dunno.  I'm probably over-paranoid, and earlier is probably
just
all in my head, as I'm working myself up over it for no reason, but I
wanted
to confirm with you all.  I never really go outside and am travelling a
lot.
I never ever put my phones in my back pants pocket, I always keep the
thing
up on a counter/table/desk when not using it.  I also have a good hard
glass
screen protector over the screen, in addition to the case.  So, yeah.
What
do you all think?  Do I need to just calm down, and stop pannicking, or
do
you all think I really do! have a reason to be so frightenned of this.

Chris.
