come again? you are asking wether any MBP model bends when one carries it with one hand - I assume lid open (?) - from one place - e.g. desk - to another - e.g. sofa? … this is merriam-webster on bend - by carrying?

For the protocol: no. it. does. not. bend. not. even. an. MBA. does. that. 😀

Sorry … didn’t know that it has been discussed in extensio before.

No need to be sorry… I was/and am surprised that you have ask this. I assume you refer to the current model line (?)… you have a particular reason or scenario for why you ask?

Yes. Referring to a M4 Pro 14“ MBP. No particular reason. I was just holding it this morning with one hand and thought: Pretty heavy… too heavy for aluminum? Prone to bending.. should I better use both hands.

That aluminum would be difficult to bend by merely holding it. The shape, with the vertical sides, adds a lot of strength. You would have to use significant force to bend the machine. Holding the machine with one hand is not nearly enough force. Don’t even worry about bending the machine.

Sounds good. 🙏 for your expertise. Always thought aluminum is easy to bend.
