If Steve were here, he'd say these people were walking wrong. He'd then proceed to show them how to pocket the phone and then walk on their tippy toes like a ballerina.

Apple found the concept intriguing, so now they are releasing the Dali Edition.

We can only hope that more research is going to go into bendy screens.

Only if they're *supposed* to bend. Or is Apple going to be talking about that new feature soon?

iOS 8 now features wireless microwave charging. Somebody actually tried this! There's also a mention of the new bending feature.

I guess "Will it blend?" was getting old.

New standard mobile phone evaluations question?

Will the phone mix? (and we don't mean socially)

Apple is really on a roll, the icloud fiasco with the photos, the failed video streaming of the new phones, the bending of said phones, the iOS 8.0.1 that turned your phones into ipods, ... Truly, "it just works"...

On my iPhone 5, I have a nice light plastic case. having such on an iPhone 6 would easily prevent bending and it would not make that phone noticeably bigger or heavier.

What case do you have? I don't own an iThing, but wanted to see if the brand makes cases for other phones. I haven't seen a case that wouldn't make my current Nexus 5 or previous Galaxy s3 too big.

Dare we speak the words of the master (Jobs) himself "a truly magical and revolutionary product."

It changes shape to conform to body contours.

I have a Diztronic TPU case for my iPhone 5. It is quite thin but has protected the phone very well. Recommended.

I think they make them for other popular phones.
