Users report iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are folding in their pants

Users and several sites are reporting that the new models of iPhone (iPhone 6 e 6 iPhone Plus) can be anything but resistant to tighter pockets. The thickness of the material that covers these smartphones may be the cause, according to images and reports on specialized forums.

a forum member MacRumors posted a picture of your 6 iPhone Plus, showing that after a few hours in the front trouser pocket during a car ride, it bent. Another member also posted a photo with a similar account, but with the iPhone 6 from a friend. Other reports from sites and forums such as MacBidouille keep appearing – and they shouldn't stop, considering that the number of sales of new smartphones from Apple already overcame 10 million units.

When choosing the aluminum, a soft and flexible material, and opting to reduce its thickness as much as possible, it may have become a material not so suitable for coating the housing of new iPhones 6. With the increase in screens for 4.7 e 5.5 inches, the surface of the iPhones became more vulnerable. Unlike other materials such as plastic, aluminum has less elasticity and greater difficulty in returning to its original state.

Remember that this is not the first time this has happened. The previous models, iPhone 4 e iPhone 5, also suffered from creases, as was reported at the time by their users. However, this apparently did not happen with common use, in the pocket of the pants, let's say.

The problem is not unique to the Apple . owners of X, top-of-the-line smartphone from Sony, also did similar alerts. The recommendation for users who already own these devices is simple: avoid keeping them in your pocket for a long time, especially if you are driving or wearing very tight pants. For hipsters… all that's left is to cry.
