Do you think the bending issues are over exaggerated? The iPad pros before this one are quite thin also.
Over exaggerate? No. These are very thin with aluminum and have weak points in the middle as mentioned above. Sure these can bend but under normal circumstances they won’t.
When Apple advertises the new iPad Pro in a commercial with a truck rolling over one and no damage occurring to it, to show its durability - then I’ll take umbrage with Apple if I buy one and it ends up bending with little to no force. Until then I think the ‘bending issue’ is being overblown or is overwrought...
