After the start of sales of the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus many users began reporting that smartphones can be quite easy to bend, and then they do not return to normal. This week, Apple acknowledged that some users have already contacted the company with a similar problem, talked about testing new flagships for resistance to bending and assured that during normal use of this happens very rarely.
Lewis Hilsenteger with resource Unbox Therapy recorded video of him on the streets of Toronto in front of several passers-by simply bent the iPhone 6 Plus. It seems that the problem still occurs, since one user could see one feature in the design of the new iPhone.
Apple has said that to strengthen the construction of new iPhone she used inserts in steel and titanium in areas of potential fold. It is this insert is in the location of the cut-outs for the volume buttons. Place the left side just below the volume control buttons and is the weakest point of new iPhone, and even a small force is sufficient to bend smarfon. Apple has so far not responded to the new information.
