    I was reading hipsters in skinny jeans were experiencing this, as well as bro's who put their phone in their back pocket.

    Why do people put their phone in their back pocket? Seems like sitting on it can't be a good thing.

    Yeah, and I'd be more worried of it getting pickpocketed. Seems weird to me, a lot of girls do this too.

    Btw, remember the debate about apple stock a while back? Well, when the stock was at the lowest point, I made a $600 a share guess. Since then the stock split 7/1. Right now, the stock would be valued over $700

    Is that an iPhone in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

    http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/09/23/report-keeping-an-iphone-6-in-pocket-may-cause-warping

    Reports from consumers claim that storing an iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus can cause the body of the phone to warp.

    This is according to Geek.com, which claims some consumers have complained about the phone cases having bent after merely sitting in a pants pocket for an extended amount of time.

    The author reported that his own iPhone 6 unit had experienced some warping, although it was significantly less than what others had experienced.

    Hands-on with the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus
    01:40
    "Just to be on the safe side, shortly after reading these reports I [Geek.com's Russell Holly] checked out my own iPhone 6 and discovered a similar — but significantly less noticeable — effect. Much like these other reports, my phone had been in my front pocket for an extended period of time while I was driving. The phone is otherwise in perfect working order, and has never once been dropped or sat on (or anything)."

    The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus models are designed to be lightweight, made out of aluminum with soft, curved edges. It's possible that the phone's ligtweight construction may be to blame for the warping.

    People Are Still Lining Up Like Crazy At The Apple Store For The iPhone 6

    I bet Samsung wishes they could get this type of response like Apple fandom. Even with the bending phone, mud throwing marketing campaign, and release of a "hypothetical higher quality" phone; they aren't even close.

    It's like peewee football players trying to defend NFL allstars!
