Cupertino, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – In response to viral posts and videos showing that the new iPhone 6 Plus can easily bend when pressure is applied to it, Apple issued the following guidelines to its customers and potential buyers when using the 5.5-inch smart phone:

Don’t put them in your front pocket if you’re wearing tight pants. Really tight pants.
Don’t put them in your back pocket and sit on it. Duh!
Don’t try to be a smart ass by posting a video of yourself on YouTube forcefully bending your new iPhone 6 Plus. Even your Apple Care subscription will not cover the damage.
Don’t be a bully by using your phone to beat up other people.
Drinking and texting with your iPhone 6 Plus don’t mix.
Leave your phone at home when you go to the gym. Especially when you’re into lifting weights.
Never ever get into a debate with Android phone owners (Samsung, Nexus, HTC , etc.) on which phone is more superior.
Always keep your phone at least 10 feet away from a barbecue grill. Especially during tailgate parties where alcohol is served.
Don’t ever lend your phone to an angry wrestler.
If you have tiny hands, make sure to wear traction gloves when using your phone . That will prevent the phone from slipping off your hands.

APPLE RECALLS ALL iPHONE 6 AND 6 PLUS DUE TO MAJOR DESIGN FLAW

September 21, 2014 Pol Pinoy 3 Comments

Cupertino, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – It is not uncommon for car manufacturers to recall specific models of their automobiles due to design flaws or for food manufacturers to recall items that may have been tainted with bacteria or other health hazards. But tech companies recalling their products is practically unheard of. Until now. And it had to be the biggest and most successful company, Apple.

Just days after it launched its iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, Apple has issued a major recall of all of the new phones due to a major design flaw. Until yesterday, the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have been hailed as the best smart phones ever to hit the market.

Today, however, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced the recall of all phones sold thus far and said that the company has halted the sale and shipping of the new products.

The reason? A major design flaw in the packaging. Many customers have complained that when they first opened their iPhone box, the phone slipped out of the box and into the ground, causing the screen of the device to break or result in major dents to the phone. One such incident was even documented on live television when the first Australian to buy the iPhone 6 at an Apple store dropped the device as he opened the box to show his new phone to a television reporter.

The iPhone sits on top of the box, unsecured, resulting in excited customers to accidentally drop the device upon opening the box.

Cook said Apple is deeply embarrassed and promised that all customers who have purchased the new iPhones will get a replacement as soon as the design flaw is fixed. In addition, they will get a free Apple Watch when it comes out early next year.

In the meantime, the backorder and waiting period to get the new phones will be three months, just in time for the Christmas holiday.

INVESTIGATION: JOAN RIVERS’ DOCTOR SUFFERING FROM SELFITIS

Atlanta, Georgia (The Adobo Chronicles) – CNN is now reporting that the late Joan Rivers’ doctor is suffering from Selfitis, a condition just recently classified by the American Psychiatric Association as a mental disorder.

On August 28, Rivers went into the Yorkville Endoscopy Clinic for an outpatient procedure on her vocal chords performed by Dr. Lawrence Cohen. Then, another doctor, identified by sources as Joan’s “personal ear-nose-throat physician” did a biopsy of her vocal cords. It was during the biopsy that Rivers went into cardiac arrest. She later died on September 4.

The CNN investigative report quotes an eyewitness who said that Joan’s personal doctor took a selfie photo inside the procedure room just before she stopped breathing. The photo was taken while Rivers was under anesthesia, according to the eyewitness, a “staff member” at Yorkville Endoscopy clinic.
