      Go to a Sony store and smash some TVs with a hammer and they’ll break. Then go make a huge debacle online about it and inflame an issue that isn’t a big deal. Exert enough force on a 6 Plus and you can break it. My 6 Plus is perfectly fine. it sits in my pocket fine. If you’re trying to break your phone, you’re going to break it. I don’t really know what everyone’s issue is. Respect your god damn property. That’s all. It’s the fact that it’s Apple, it’s a big company, and a successful one too. It’s one of the most valuable US companies. People will find ways to make them look bad. That’s just unfortunately how it is. That doesn’t mean the company IS bad.
