Surely you remember the iPhone 6 Plus being bent by the bare hairy
hands of experts , and even by machines?
Surely you wept as you saw it disfigured like a night on the town after
one too many banana daiquiris.
Naturally, competitors saw this and chuckled. Samsung even released a
video that allegedly proved its Galaxy Note 4 was not for bending.
The same doesn't seem to be true with the Galaxy 6 Edge. The big
brains at SquareTrade decided to put this lovely new phone to the test.
What they discovered is that it became unlovely with exactly the sort of
pressure that did in the iPhone 6 Plus.
The testing video shows that one leg of an offensive lineman -- I'm
estimating it weighs 110 pounds -- not only bends the Edge, but also
gets its glass to crack.
Moreover, the Edge broke apart at 149 pounds of pressure, whereas the
iPhone 6 Plus survived until 179 pounds.
I imagine that one or two Apple fanpersons will be giggling to their
Easter Bunnies at this news. They might even crow to their Edgier
friends that their gadget cracks under pressure.
