Yahoo: iPhone 6 “Warping” & Crystal Caves
The unlikely duo of Bermuda’s Crystal Caves and the new iPhone 6 have been featured by Yahoo Tech, in a story entitled, “How I Found Out About the iPhone 6 Bending ‘Problem,’ 200 Feet Below Ground in Bermuda.”
The story, written by Technology Editor Jason Gilbert, said: “I am 200 feet underground, in a beautiful, 2 million-year-old cavern called the Crystal Cave, in Hamilton, Bermuda. Stunning stalactite formations, placid blue water, soft lighting against the dark cave walls.
“I take out my phone to take a photo. It’s an iPhone 6 Plus; Apple lent one to our organization to review, and I took it on vacation with me, mostly to test out the camera. I’m about to snap the shot when our tour guide, a young Bermudian man with a scruffy beard, stops the tour, walks over to me, and says, “Is that the iPhone 6 Plus.”
“No question mark; he knows. Wants to hold it. Prehistoric cave, impeccable limestone stalactites hanging over the still, crystal blue water. The young man is stunned by the sight of the new iPhone.
“Are you having the warping problem?” he asks. Mr. Gilbert says he then “gets it,” as people have presented the issue with some iPhones warping as an “epidemic.”
“Meanwhile, there are like five warped iPhones out there, maybe, out of 10 million. But everyone, even a guy who works in a cave in Bermuda, knows that the iPhone 6 bends if you keep it in your pocket too long,” he writes.
“Anyway, the warping is all the tour guide wants to talk about. In a 2 million-year-old cave, surrounded by, seriously, some beautiful stalactite formations.”
