Apple’s marketing machine has tried to straighten out the Bendghazi controversy that invaded the web last week, but someone might want to alert their billboard company in Berlin that the iPhone 6’s bendiness isn’t supposed to be a selling point.

iPhone 6 ads have started going up on billboards across the globe, but the monstrous ad (shown above) in Germany was so huge, they couldn’t fit the bigger than big display on the structure without bending it just a little bit – right near its supposed weak spot.

Another Apple reseller in the Netherlands had some similar woes with its iPhone 6 ads. Check out their hilarious poster below:

    Err what the heck does this sentence say? the monstrous ad above Germany? They couldn’t fit the bigger than display? Eh? What are you talking about? Did you google translate this from German or did you just forget to read what you were sending out into the blogosphere?

    Yawn… This stuff is already getting too old. It’s time for the bloggers to find some other fault with iPhones.

    Since when was Apple’s marketing machine trying “to straighten out the Bendghazi controversy”? Don’t you mean “bend gate”? Course, Apple might do a better job solving a lot of our Government problems than the current idiot we have running the country now.

        Palto, you might want to think about what you say and to whom you say it BEFORE you go on a rant. The Blog mentioned Benghazi which has nothing to do with Apple. Although you sound pretty typical of some who just want to accuse anyone who doesn’t think like you of being a “right wing clown>”

        The blog mentioned Ben*d*ghazi, linking it to a CultOfMac story.

        Great catch! My apologies to Palto. It sure looked like Benghazi to me when I read it. Thanks…

    It’s Dutch, not German.
