Some new iPhone 6 users are shocked when they pull it out out of their pocket. They are finding a slight bend in the phone.
iPhone users say the phone bends when it sits in your front and back pocket.
The problem seems to be with the construction. The sixth-gen phones are made out of aluminum and not glass, plastic or steel.
Aluminum bends easily and the new phones are thinner than 6.6 mm and 7.1 mm.
There’s even a Twitter account that derived from this, claiming “#Bendgate” and provides advice on how to prevent it.
Apple updates its website to include new iPhone 6 feature – FLEX #bendgate
