Current rumor suggests that the next iPad Air will be even thinner than the last one.
And as we know from the release of the last iPhone, when something’s thinner… well, it’s likely to get bent.
So what will happen if Bendgate comes to the iPad? Our favorite concept designer Martin Hajek imagines the next iPad Air if it proves as pliable as the iPhone 6.
There are more images after the jump. What do you think?

My gosh!!
iPad looks stunning after bending..
#Bendgate was over weeks ago. Only the blogs are still milking it.
STOP IT RIGHT NOW.
It’s the journalists that are still promoting it. They obviously didn’t see the horse beat to death.
Really…STFU about “bendgate”.
It won’t be bending, but you know that some people somewhere will b1tch and moan about SOMETHING about the new iPads.
For crying out loud…you have nothing better to write about do you?
Can CoM get a better journalist? Brownlee isn’t capable of understanding simple concepts. No one is going to stick an iPad in their back pocket and sit on it to test if the thing bends or not.
Stupid
Get a life
Hm, another bendgate article?! How stupid. It’s over, not funny anymore :-/
This site is increasingly coming off as desperate. Give up all the nastiness and click bait and you might get more readers.
LoL. WTH is this. Are you serious.
How many people put their iPads in their back pocket?
I do all the time… and I sit on it and bend it with my hands and other dumb bullshit.
I have to say… Part of me wants a curved iPhone.
utter nonsense and waste of a tech article. Provides no value what to ever or even humor
Actually if you look past the bend gate he is showing that the artist made it look pretty cool to have a bent/curved iDevice.
What if the next…. shut the fuck up happens on cultofmac?
