Why You Might Want to Hold Off on Buying the New iPhone

The new iPhone models are here, and millions of orders have been placed for the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus. But a shocking new find about the iPhone 6 Plus might make you reconsider upgrading to Apple’s largest phone any time soon.

According to Huffington Post:

Reports that Apple’s new 5.5-inch “phablet” was prone to bending ricocheted around the tech blogosphere on Tuesday. One person posted in the MacRumors forum that his or her iPhone bent after just a day and an evening of sitting and dancing with the phone in a pocket, and offered a picture of a bent phone as evidence. Lewis Hilsenteger, of the YouTube channel Unbox Therapy, posted a video of himself bending a phone with his hands. He told HuffPost via Twitter that he “used as much force as my thumbs were capable of” to bend the phone, though other phones, like Samsung’s Galaxy Note 3, didn’t bend under the same pressure.

It’s certainly too early to tell if this is a widespread issue or not, but it might be a good idea to hold off buying the iPhone 6 Plus until Apple addresses this issue. As of now, they’ve made no comment about the bendiness of their phones.
