Since 2007, when the first iPhone came out, I've had 2 androids (both the latest models), always with the latest version of the OS because it updates for free, and the same chargers, and spent a total of $450 between the two, without a contract.

If I bought a new iPhone without a contract, at every release, I would have spent over $6,000.00.

Think about how tight your pants would have to be for that to happen. People are now trying to make "bendgate" a think like the idiotic antennagate, hopefully this time Apple just issues a statement saying "Stop sitting on your phone morons."

Oh, put that thing away, Samurai. We all know what's going to happen. You'll swing your sword, I'll fly away, and probably say something like, "I'll be back, Samurai!" And then I'll flutter over the horizon and we probably won't see each for... about a week. And then we'll do the same thing again.
shiiiit bending issues? makes me kinda glad i wasn't able to nab the six then.

i might wait for a 6S then. it seems like every new version of the iphone was prone to stupid design flaws and was subsequently fixed with an update. 4 had antenna issues, the 5 had scuffing.

i dunno, maybe its just a bunch of fat fucks sitting on their expensive phones but my GS3 is still working fine so far. no harm in waiting.

meh. phones.

I love watching girls text on their phones with cracked screens because they were too dumb to realize that a computer is wedged in their back pocket before sitting down.

No because they are plastic pieces of poo poo. Complaining about your premium aluminum smartphone bending under direct pressure makes about as much sense as complaining that your new expensive sports car can't make it over a speed bump without scraping.

no because plastic springs back

metal isnt actually better for phones, apple only uses it because its perceived as premium and because its harder to copy (for competitors)

Apple apologists across the internet thinking it's normal for a phone to be irreparably damaged with a little bit of bend force

loving laughing that they're right here on SA too

It's a safety feature, haven't you stupid fucks heard of crumple zones, DUH. It's freaking SPACE ALUMINIUM OF COURSE IT'S GOING TO BEND IF YOU BEND IT. Uhhhhhhhhhh... it's a bigger phone than normal you GUYS... cut them some slack!!!!!
