Since the whole bendgate saga have died down, anyone experience bend iphone or so ? Because my iphone 6 + seems slightly warped towards the front at the volume area. I have never put my phone in the pocket, it is always hand carried... On top of that it is encased in a hard plastic cover, so can anyone enlighten me why would it warp slightly forward ? And also, do heat play a problem in causing the phone to bend forward slightly ?

Haha :s13: But it's true I do have quite big hands though, but anw if that's the case if I do 1 for 1 exchange with the reason that it is being warped, will I get a 1 for 1 exchange for a new phone or refurbished set from singtel/apple

Npnt lei.....

Not sure if this helps, the bottom of iphone is press with a ruler so it is straight, however the upper part of the phone is slightly warped forward as you can see from the slight gap from the ruler against the phone..

One simple test, does your hardcase bend when you applied force to it?

I have said this many times. If you want you iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus to remain straight, your hardcase must be of those that doesn't bend under the same amount of pressure or stress that you are likely to applied to it. If the hardcase bend under that pressure, your phone will still bend no matter how good the branding of the case is.

On one note, there is such a thing as an unbendable iPhone 6. Or in this case, not as likely to bend as your usual iPhone 6. Just that the majority of you will never get to see, let alone to hold one.

When I went to get mine exchanged for slight twisting, it was a new set. But that was around 1 month ago la. Now should be mostly refurbished already. I went to an AASP btw, A.labs at Plaza Sing
