I mean... if you expect anyone to believe that this bent by itself, you must be crazy lol. Not saying it can't bend, but something happened.

Sorry but OP is full of ****. **** just doesn't bend. I mean come on, you sound like you're 2 years old and mom/dad has confronted you about doing something and you make up some random **** that they know is bogus! Just stop.
 
Well, I'm not trolling / photoshopping / whatever. I just wanted to find out if other people had the same issue. I don't think it came out of the box bent, and I know that I haven't handled it any other way than all of my other iDevices. I am a female software developer who's not heavy and not very strong, so I am as puzzled as everyone else as to why this could have happened. I have had 8 iPhones and 4 iPads before, as well as several MBPs and iMacs.
I understand why people think this doesn't just happen. I would have been the same if I didn't see it first hand!
Here's another photo from when I first took the iPad out of the box to compare it to all my other devices:

You're reflection says your a 50/60 year old male. With a tattoo on your wrist. Unless I'm missing something?

reminds me of that guy selling the teapot on eBay where you see his naked reflection in the shiny metal of the pot. :)

That said, we're in an era of non-traditional looks that no longer have to conform to traditional gender norms so this could certainly be a woman with short graying hair or someone born male who prefers different pronouns etc...

Regardless I think you're full of it regarding your magically bending iPad.
 
Lol. I had to google metal spontaneously bending and all I get are references to spoons and other pseudo-science. @iMacca, someone has most definitely bent it without your knowledge. Or could be yourself without your knowledge. It cannot have just happened by magic.

Try to realize the truth... There is no spoon... Then you will see that it is not the spoon that bends, but only yourself.

My husband took the photo. As you can see my iPhones/iPads are on the table and I don't have any other cameras.

Tsk tsk poor analysis...... Don't give up your day job ;)

And as for the other people bashing the OP, if you bothered to follow her posting history, she is no troll

Who is trolling who her?

OP, sorry that it's bent like that, I know u don't have an Apple Store in NZ right, where did you buy it? If you did have an Apple Store at least u could chat with them.
 
Not bashing, but I find it extremely difficult to believe that no significant external force was applied to the iPad Pro. Heat is a very unlikely cause. I would expect it to warp in a curve if so, not bend at an angle.
 
Thank you for your nice post @MH01 :)

No unfortunately we don't have an Apple Store in NZ - I ordered it online from Apple last week as soon as it was available for purchase. I'll ring Apple and return it :(
