This is the first bendgate video I've seen and am not surprised that when you bend something that is a long and thin piece of metal it deforms and doesn't return to it's original shape. Like a spoon.
What I'm more surprised at is the way Apple dealt with it (if phone call claim is true), for a company that is usually great with PR.
- IBM 12y agoThis is how Apple PR works. Apple products have so much demand from customers that getting review units is a huge boost to page views. Apple PR has all the leverage and can "punish" publications easily.
- chc 12y agoGiven that this appears to have been a legitimately purchased iPhone 6 Plus, I'm not sure what Apple PR could conceivably do to prevent this in the future.
- IBM 12y agoWell in the future they won't be getting review units and will have to wait in line like everyone else to review it. By then the embargo would have been lifted on other publications with review units and they likely won't get nearly as much traffic.
