I wonder if this is a fake bending problem, like iPhone 6, or actually a real issue?

- entropea 7y agoIt bends at the plastic antenna cutouts in the frame (so RF can escape) and it looks like it wasn't properly reinforced.
- rasz 7y agoAre you saying Apple faked its internal documents stating 6 is ~3x more likely to bend than previous models?
- jmull 7y agoBends more easily doesn’t mean bends too easily. Of course what’s too easy is a grey area. I do know as an owner (who’s generally rough on his stuff) of a 6 plus for four years that they don’t bend easily.
- rasz 7y agoAccording to Apple internal documents "iPhone 6 Plus was 7.2 times more likely to bend" than iPhone 5. X times more likely means X times weaker. Aligning all the structural weak spots (sim tray, volume button, empty space on both sides of PCB) was a real stroke of genius.
