Will It Bend?: iPhone 6 Plus #Bendgate Controversy Rages On!

Consumers just got their hands on Apple’s brand-new 5.5″ iPhone 6 Plus, but complaints are already rolling in about a potential design flaw.

The controversy surrounding this issue – to which Apple PR has yet to respond – has come to be known as “BendGate.” So far, over 23,000 tweets have been posted including the #BendGate hashtag, with #Bendghazi also proving a popular repository for bent iPhone arguments and parodies.
