iPhone 6 Plus bendgate

iphone 6plus bend

Almost immediately after Apple began selling its massive iPhone 6 Plus in September, the Internet went crazy with images of bent phones. Internet personality Lewis Hilsenteger made "bendgate" a sensation by posting a YouTube video of himself bending the iPhone 6 Plus.

Soon after, two British teenagers filmed themselves bending an iPhone 6 Plus in a London Apple Store.

But Apple insisted that the phone doesn't bend easily, saying that only 9 customers had complained about bending phones during the first week of sales.
