APPLE. ALWAYS BENDING the rules. Quite literally, it seems.

Yesterday, reports emerged that despite the fancy-shmancy design, the new iPhone 6 Plus phone is bending when people leave it in their pockets for too long.

Whoops!

We couldn't find this Tweet

Apple haven’t commented on the problem yet – but YouTuber Doc Brown has created this spoof Apple ad re-imagining the whole thing as a ‘new feature’ for the iPhone 6.

Slick. We can’t *wait* to try it out.
