iPhone 6 box poor packaging design

[zhelf]

If you lift the lid with the iPhone on a table the box stays on the table lid comes off. Who opens it sideways?

Even of it wasn't on top of you open it any other way than flat the weight will shift and it will fall out

This thread on poor packaging design is still relevant. Sad that Apple hasn't at least put a ribbon around the interior packaging so the phone does not fly out of the box when opened. I bought and picked up 128g iphone 6s at the at&t store and service person opened box which was a tight fit. When the lid came off the phone went flying to the floor. I couldn't forget seeing it hit the floor so I returned it.

I definitely understand that this is a design thing, and agree that seeing the iPhone first is a good thing, but there has to be a way to put it farther down? I always open my iPhone boxes slowly and over a very soft surface just in case.
