Bent iPhone claims put Apple under pressure to respond. [View all]

Experts are divided over whether Apple should respond to claims that its new iPhone 6 handsets are prone to bend when carried in trouser pockets.

Several members of the public have postedphotos to the MacRumors site that appear to show the problem. A reporter for the Geek.com news site also reported his phone had warped.

Other mobiles have bent in the past.

And it is not yet clear if the new iPhones' aluminium shells make them particularly vulnerable.

Even so, the claims have been reported across tech blogs as well as mainstream media including the Independent, the Washington Post, India Today and the Sydney Morning Herald.
