Let's do the time warp again. It's just a bend in the middle of your new apple device, a little legal shuffling and lawyers laughing all night. Let's do the bendgate again. This time it's the iPad Pro with new devices being shipped pre-bent to customers. Is this Apple subtly telling their customers to get bent? Will Apple ever learn? Will we get a Bendgate the third? Tune in six months from now to find out.

    Not really. Apple could be on the hook for deceptive advertising.

    It was deceptive for the first customers who - rightfully - expected to have a flat phone. Since then, Apple came out with this "bent tablets are okay" bull. Thus, from that point onward, whoever who hasn't been living under a rock who bought an iPad knew exactly what to expect in advance. No deception there for those suckers.
