iPad Pro iPad Pro is bent

If you give you iPad reasonable care it will not get bent. When not using it, keep in a safe place. A safe place is not on your couch with a pillow over it when some one can sit on it. A safe place is on a hard surface where it can not be pushed to the floor. I keep mine in a book case between the books. Even hooked a charger up so it can charge there.

I only had the iPad Pro for a few days, and it's already bent!! I received it last Friday (which was a nice surprise) and this morning I noticed how it had a bend in it. Anyone else with this problem?

(just wanted to add that this is from normal use at home, never put it in a bag or did anything unusual to it)

Pictures?
 
I had mine on my desk charging. I unplugged it and when I picked it up I noticed it was bent just like yours.
I have not had mine in a bag or backpack. I have not taken mine outside my home in the 3 months I have had it.
I live alone.
 
This will continue to happen until Appl goes with 7000 series Aluminum for the iPad. At this point it's basically a giant iPhone 6.

You are wrong! My ipad was on my desk all night while charging. When i woke up i found this curve! 2 years ago my Iphone 6 bent while playing! There are a lot of cases but Apple refuse to recognise this problem.

Please ignore my topic until you will be well informed!

Back to reality. No more neighbours, cousins and other non ipad users!

You know nothing. If you dont't have a solution, keep the distance. You can't blame me and other 100k users with this problem.

Unfortunately nobody will believe it until it happens to them. I believe you because it happened to me and nobody pampers their iPad (1st gen Pro 12.9) like I do. I think what caused the bend was the intense heat of summer combined with a tight fitting case but definitely not a drop nor anyone sitting on it. At any rate, all I was able to do was bend it back straight. It wasn’t hard to do because the aluminum is fairly soft. The person above who said it’s basically a giant iPhone 6 is right.

Spontaneous bending is ridiculous, but heat is certainly a plausible cause. It still begs the question though - how are you using your iPad such that it is subject to such temperature extremes? Do you use it outdoors in the hot sun a lot? If it remains indoors, and your house is not a greenhouse... I’m not trying to be facetious, but it still seems unlikely to happen unless in the most extreme circumstances if temperature is really a cause.

Only way it could get that hot would be the battery in thermal runaway. No way you would not notice or at the least smell something if it got that hot. The device screen and other items in the iPad would be toast. There is no way it would just bend without a physical force applied.
