However Bend gate was discredited or not (it is not really my point), it can at least shows that nowadays, iphone is no longer a cool phone to put in your back pocket of your jeans. Actually you do not even understand why bend gate existed, it shows that cool guys now with his/her iphone can not be cool in your back pocket. It is called iphone but you can not even put it in your pockets (because it is either too big to fit or too fragile, I can do both with my Iphone 4s without any issues), it forces you to have a hand bag, even for man!!! Can you believe this? You'd say you can put it in pockets of coats, but what about summer? Are you saying man should have a purse at hand to hold your iphone? How uncool is that? If Steve Jobs is still alive, I think iphone 6 plus would not have been hit the market at lease to reflect concerns in what made apple so successful - customer experience. For the past month, my wife treated her iphone 6 plus like her prince and sometimes I even got little bit OCDed about how she should gently touch it. I can not believed it still can dent by your normal use of supporting back by fingers. My iphone 4s experience was like solid, sturdy, most importantly, reliable and does not make you worry too much. Now the iphone 6 plus experience would be constantly worrying of dent/bend (because it can actually kill your phone,where scratches for my iphone 4s only add some bad lookings) . Yes, I ordered a tough armor case for it today,but hey, I payed Apple 600 pounds to shrink it down and now I have to buckle it up again? If you were employed by Steve Jobs and he knew you advised me to buy a case just to avoid accidentally create a dent by normal hand-handling it, you would be fired immediately I think. To me, Apple was not ready for this sized touch device market yet, I think the leadership now at Apple are focusing too much on competition with Samsung and other vendors to savage as much market share as quickly as possible, a little thinner than this brand and a little lighter than that brand, by doing this Apple actually changed the experience of users from robustness of entire life of an iphone to early premature satisfaction and excitement followed by worrying and hate the phone for the rest of its lifespan. To wrap up, we treated it very well and it breaks, with a case it is even bigger, and it will not fit your front boot's pocket or back, because it can be easily bend unless you can make a video or test and show that it will not bend it in your back/front pockets with normal activities (including sitting and walking). Now when you put it into your purse or bags you have to be careful because your finger can dent it (my case) and so other little hard stuff also can. If it requires so much attention to treat it right, why Apple put an motion calculation chip inside it, you can not even have it on your body when you are doing light sports in summer. If I knew all of this, I would definitely get an iphone 6, not 6 plus. But now it is all too late, I have put my trust in apple, and it gives me a such huge smack down on the expectation and experience. Sure, my wife can live with a small tiny dent, and the phone is working fine. But with this bad experience and psychological disappointment, It is not what I pay 600 pounds for. One of Genius told me iphone 6 plus was thinner when I asked why it is so fragile, it seems to me that Apple is happy to charge you more premium for less good experience on their flagship products. This is just my thoughts about today, maybe I should not expect so much from Apple as before, should I?
