Welcome to my ignore list BOAC.
As I said, the joke's gone on long enough. As has been explained a million times, its not Apple's fault that people are clumsy and/or sit on their phones.
The Register is notoriously Apple-bashing, so I would take anything they have to say on the topic of Apple with a significant pinch of salt.
It takes over 30kg to bend an iPhone 6, which is only the sort of pressure that you can exert comfortably by sitting on the phone.
Enough piss taking has been taken on this thread by the resident Apple bashers. Its time for to find another thing to take the piss out of because the Apple jokes are really just becoming tedious....
