Headline : The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Also Bends [Video]


Excerpt from the Link "A new video testing the bendability of the new Samsung Galaxy Note 4 has been posted by Unbox Therapy.

The footage compares the bendability of the Galaxy Note 4 to the iPhone 6 Plus. Notably, the reviewer was able to put a slight bend in the device at the exact same spot as the iPhone 6 Plus.

"The Note 4 does bend a little bit and funny enough it's in exactly the same spot as the 6 Plus. It's no where near as severe. I just have a tiny little warp here and I had to put a lot of pressure into it to achieve that, but still, at that same amount of pressure the Note 3 was completely fine."

My thoughts :

Seems not only the iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 Plus phones bend if enough pressure is applied, in the same spot as the 6 plus too.

Question is would a person on the street apply this type of unnatural force on a phone ?

Really question is, why are people still surprised by a thin aluminum device bending as if it should need superman to bend it.
I'm pretty sure if you gave me ANY aluminium phone, I could bend it.

Pretty pathetic really...
Of course I was fully expecting it, but lets see if we get any "real" reports of bending similar to the iPhone ones in "normal" use.

Expect all future releases to be put to the test initiated no doubt by disgruntled ifanboys.

Did the note 3 bend? Is the note 4 basically the same design as the note 3?

Neither Notes have deformed anything like the iPhone - It's just sensationalism, as usual.......

Videos of both phones bring put under 'Not Normal' duress speak for themselves.

Just helps to show most phones in that category can be affected.

Yeah I got your image. 😄

The #bendgate was highly publicised across the media and blogs / forums so it was inevitable that previous phones and future ones would be put to the 'bend' test.
