Bent iPhone 6

nyermen

Our company tends to drag every bit of life out of the company phones (which are iphones since we switched from blackberry). It is a bit telling that all the 5S's are still fine, but pretty much every 6 and 6s has an element of bending, all evident in the same area (around the volume keys)

Not that this helps the OP get a resolution. For what it's worth, I had a 6 that bent on me. A probable combination of the phone getting hot when playing games on the tube, then popping it in the front pocket (I never use my back pockets) for the walk to the office afterwards. A repair shop can probably do correctly - what i did amateurly - which was to straight after the "device heating game", gently apply force to try and straighten it. It worked for myself. Ps. My 6 was in an "otter box defender" from the start - the office provides them with every issued phone.

Our family has had several of each iPhone since the 3 including four iPhone 6 or 6S and never had a single one bend. They've had cracked screens from being dropped, and water damage from going in the bath or down a toilet but never bent. But none of us have ever kept a phone in our back pockets

I would've thought a phone would be tougher than the stitching on a pair of jeans...

It's not the stitching on the jeans, it's the force of the quite tough material stretching and compressing the phone against your bum when you sit down. Just put your hand in the back pocket of your jeans and try to sit or squat and you will feel just how strong the force is. When that is coupled with a phone that might be quite hot from just being used and you have slightly softened metal and very strong material.
