Frustrated with the iPhone 6's camera sticking out, this person took a grinder to the device.

Got frustrated with the camera sticking out; now it finally sits flat on a table.

Making a good design better.
...with a grinder machine.

Apple is failing big this time.

Not as much as your comments and competition if you bothered with jd power. Keep being blinded by gimmicks.

I dont even notice the camera sticking out, and if your really worried about it not sitting flat on a surface then you need to get your OCD sorted out!

You shouldn't settle for a second class product, I am speaking when apple hid the bumpy camera. Steve jobs would have NEVER allowed such an unfinished design hit the stores. Simply no. And at such Price! Shame on you Apple and Shame on you for being conformist and accepting this when you know you deserve better.

gamerscul9870 - September 24, 2014 at 2:57pm

That makes you to. Shaaasne.

I agree totally steve jobs would not of allowed it but im just saying it doesn't bother me and if thats all people can say bad about this phone then it cant be that bad, and "shame on me for accepting it" lol maybe i just dont let things like that bother me

Is that squidward talking?

gamerscul9870 - September 23, 2014 at 9:42am

LAWL I remember when samsheeps praised for samsung all just for size. Gimmicking without proof once AGAIN!!!!!

gamerscul9870 - September 23, 2014 at 9:14am

or buy a case like many do for it. Who knows btw maybe the next generation will be thinner all the way.

You need to chill

Sticking with iPhone 5s

I actually find the camera very attractive with a nice case. It gives it dimension besides its true functions.

Please STOP uploading every video you find!

The little camera actually bugs the hell out of me. I don't use a case.... I don't spend extra money on a device to need a case. If I drop and break it I replace it. If I wanted a camera bubble I could have just stuck with Android. Only way the camera could look worse is if it was square and centered.

This is called using excess brains over a camera ......

Great! - September 23, 2014 at 1:42am

That's an ex Samsung user. Give them time to get their head on right.

int3rnist - September 23, 2014 at 1:40am

so many stupid people seeking attention nowadays!

gamerscul9870 - September 23, 2014 at 1:01am

No. There goes part of the process with lens.

Mike Power - September 22, 2014 at 11:21pm

I'm going to do the same thing to mine. loved it. the Man is entitled to do what he wants with his iphone, and nobody can tell him differently

gamerscul9870 - September 23, 2014 at 12:15am

going gullible with useless methods over picky people. Keep at it.

john appleseed - September 22, 2014 at 10:57pm

maybe he is just not into making photos with the rear camera :)

King Rollo - September 22, 2014 at 10:09pm

On every level this is…, as bad as the who works for Samsung - the first guy who dropped his iPhone..

AKN2020 - September 22, 2014 at 9:49pm

It's easy to use cover on it and it will be good and flat ;)

justabrake - September 22, 2014 at 9:48pm

Call Jony Ive !

dk2013 - September 22, 2014 at 9:42pm

I can't believe I'm saying this, I'm going to end up like some of the fanboy morons on this site, but this HAS to be a Samsung joke or some crap: there is no way someone would genuinely care about the protruding camera, and I lay my 6 down on the table, it doesn't wobble or anything. Come on!

gamerscul9870 - September 22, 2014 at 9:47pm

You have a point actually.

gamerscul9870 - September 22, 2014 at 9:33pm

Is he that picky over tiny kens. Besides it barely makes a difference with it sticking out. He couldn't just buy a de net case?
