New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

sounds like an ok company

yeah there been companies like that since time began, each new one better than the last

$750 to buy 11 million hits is pretty good I bet even buzzfeed pays more than that

the phones still worked too he prob just bent it back and u can barely tell

sure but call me old fashioned, i just don't think phones should bend.

you can quote this post in 10 years when we all have bendy phones.

you're old fashioned

Flexible displays are already possible they just gotta
Make flexible everything
Else

phones shd only bend if i say so

i'm old fashioned too - i just bought a reconditioned 5c.

what color

thanks for asking. i got a blue one.

sweet

i wanted yellow but there were none available. i always want yellow.

i like that color blue

It's a good blue

I have the white 6 silicone case so it kind of looks like a big old 5c

I want a bendy phone but not a bent iPhone

but c'mon everything can bend, in theory

rly I want to compare similar torque btwn diff phones and see what bends and what snaps clean in half

Same guy bending an assortment of other phones. The iPhone 6 bends only a little, considerably less than the 6 Plus. Likewise a few other similarly-sized phones, except the Moto X which is unusually sturdy. An iPhone 5S wouldn't bend at all. So basically, big phones bend easier than small phones. Shocker.

the thinness is unnecessary and everyone thinks this except apple, it seems. also i imagine that the rounded edges allow things to be bent more easily than squared ones.

most pointless post ever^

I really like the thinness

Just ordered an i-pod air 16g and a Ballistic Tough Jacket Case Cover for my son's main christmas pressie, if he fucking bends it he isn't getting another. Please someone on this thread don't tell me it is shit because I am weeping at my bank balance right now.

iPad Air's are pretty tough ime

Oh good! just having an irrational panic attack!

I would explain how I know how tough iPads are, but I overstate my secret shames often enough here

Just don't put an unprotected one on the couch near a cat prone to launching around the room at high velocity

You could also try getting it insured by a third party warranty provider like Squaretrade - they'll probably have an Accidental Damage option

http://www.squaretrade.co.uk/uk-ipad

Looks like it covers accidental damage by default

oh wow look we have a thread about apple

apparently dan riccio exists: http://www.theverge.com/2014/9/25/6845611/inside-apples-iphone-6-torture-building

seeing headlines about a possible event next month. i don't see what they're going to release that would pack anything near the punch of what they announced earlier this month, which makes it look like it's going to be a year with a killer wwdc and a really solid september event and then . . . a revision to the ipad and perhaps some mac mini shit? that's what i've seen. i guess the release of yosemite too, but do we really need to talk about that again at this point?

it's been a big year for the company, especially when you put it next to what's happen since steve died, and they should end it on a high note

Yosemite should never be spoken of again. It's like a bad Linux theme from 2003, with worse font rendering.

sounds good

How's it look on retina? xp

mere seconds/minutes from now my mini will be on 8.0.2

Should I chance upping to 8.0.2 while on vacation?

have spent seriously half an hour today trying to deal with the iMessage group chat fallout from two of my friends getting new phones and assorted OS upgrades. We are getting forked chats and blackholed messages, but nobody sees the same thing.

xpost i would wait a few days, probably, although i doubt they'll fuck up twice in a row
