My focus was more in the center portion but it seems to be a weak point up here near the button cut-outs bottom line here is it's an aluminum phone it is going to bend if you apply enough pressure like I just did, now will this happen in your front pocket that probably depends on how tight your pants are and how often you've wearing this in your pocket I think it could. This was painful to do but for the sake of science that let you guys know if it's an actual possibility it looks like it will be a possibility on the iphone 6-plus . Not necessarily the piece of information that you guys want to receive is brand new owners of this device. It's probably not gonna be the most durable from that standpoint but it's a huge footprint look at the footprint in that thing is a huge piece of aluminum and we all know that aluminum is incredibly malleable but now we have actual evidence on a camera not just a picture of a band phone after the fact, yes, it bends under the force of my hand pressure, just pushing on it the aluminum bend even with this robot piece of glass It's time to see how Apple response to this if I get any updates I'll let you guys know in an upcoming video and quick reminder I've got an extra iPhone , regular iPhone 6 there may be giving away shortly so subscribe for that maybe this is not enough information to push you in the direction of picking the six over the six plus bigger footprint, bigger piece of aluminum, greater likelihood of bending , they have it little bit approve right here on Unbox Therapy thanks for watching guys. It was painful like I said before but it's all for the sake of science so that you can a little bit more info about this investment that you're about to make Alright. Catch up in next episode later .
