To all the resident PPRuNe Apple bashers, sitting on their bandwagon trying to blame Apple for the actions of people who should know better than to sit on their phones.....
Proof that Apple do extensive QA on their phones

So... will the resident Apple bashing trolls go back to their caves.... thank you.

Seems like there's more than one problem with the new iPhones.
The iPhone 6 Plus has at least one initially-hidden downside.
I just got my iPhone 6 Plus, and I'm already thinking about returning it
It seems like the makers of THIS iPhone 6 Plus critical accessory, are onto a winner ...

Just shows he hadn't tried any of the other "large" phones, or he'd have known. If I buy an iPhone 6 (a very big "if"), it will be the standard size.
My 4S does all I need at the moment, including checking WiFi channel numbers when setting up local folks' systems to avoid channel clashes. (It has to be jailbroken to do that since a couple of years ago, when Apple decided users mustn't be allowed to see which channel a WiFi is on). It's known that I'm the "bloke in the village" who can do that, so I get plenty of cups of coffee, biscuits, and 5 minuteses with routers. Oh, and bottles of wine.

I think part of the problem is how people value their money. If I spend 2-3 hundred dollars on something I take care of it. My Galaxy S5 is my first smartphone. Verizon blessed me with an OtterBox case as part of the deal. Being retired I no longer wear shirts with pockets so the phone goes in the front pants pocket. I would never think of putting it in my back pocket. I know what a new wallet looks like after a few weeks.

So blame the manufacturers for "why do people...".
Duck tape and a hammer are the basic required mancave tools. The iron does sometimes need to be borrowed from womancave.

In this age of recycling, a rolling pin is the perfect tool for punching out the metal bottom of a cardboard packaging tube like single malt Scotch whisky containers.

All these modern devices seem to have their troubles:
