You failure to respond will be fairly taken to mean that you are again talking out of your ass. you can't be that stupid. stop being an argumentative asshole. normal use is normal everyday use, not forcibly trying to bend it. So you will not define normal use. Is putting a phone in your pocket normal use? absolutely, and it won't bend if you do that. if it did, then there would be millions of bent phones, and there aren't. this has been tested by various news sites too, including sitting down with it in a pocket and other normal daily activities. you have to really work at it to bend it, which is the case for pretty much anything. give me one of your cameras and i'll show you just how easily i can bend it or otherwise damage it. nothing is immune to abuse. BTW I am still waiting for you to show an example of where I bashed Apple. claiming the iphones bend when they don't. Just where did I make tht claim. at various points in this thread. Now you;re reqlly squirming, as usual. it ain't me who is squirming. Your lack of specifics speaks volumes. -- PeterN |

BTW I am still waiting for you to show an example of where I bashed Apple. claiming the iphones bend when they don't. But some of them have done when they failed the hip pocket test. We all know that. Even you know that. According to nospam, that is not normal use. stop twisting what i said and phones did not fail the hip pocket test unless the user intentionally sat in a way to bend it. Now you are accusing those damaged their iPhones of doing it deliberately! Hilarious!! again, over 100 million iphone 6/6+ have been sold and complaints about bent phones have pretty much disappeared entirely. It doesn't mean it's stopped happening just because the news media has lost interest. bendgate was a manufactured issue when the phone came out, and when people realized that it was bull****, the bashers went on to hairgate, another manufactured issue that was completely bogus (and stupid). several years ago, it was antennagate, something that affects every single phone ever made, yet only apple got bashed for it. You know you can't defend that claim. Why did you make it? Just consider the Motorola 'brick'. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

If any of the objects you have just cited injure people it normally is because of the actions of other people i.e. users. In that case it is the users who are charged/prosecuted. But if guns have a habit of unpredictably exploding in the users face or cars unpredictably turn themself off and lock the steering, then the manufacturer will be charged/prosecuted. and tehy do get chraged or prosecuted for such thinbgs and why Aplpe didn;t for the so called bending iPhone. Did Apple ape LG, or was it the other way around? Memory failing should upgrade now now now... -- teleportation kills |
