To my surprise, my phone has bent at the upper left, exactly how iPhone 6's have been bending.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I remember with a fairly high degree of reliability reading about this from a poster loooong ago, and I believe it may have been a Nexus 5, probably in the AAQ forum.

I've attached some pictures although it loeks worse in person. It wobbles when it's placed is the screen.

On the plus side, it's easier to reach the top.

Subtle, but I can see it. Do you often have it in your rear pocket, and sit on it? Or in the front pocket of snug jeans?

Yeah, it isn't a huge angle but, as I said, it looks bigger in person. It doesn't rock on its back anymore! Interestingly, while the left side has bent, the right side has curved...

Anyway, it never goes in my back pocket and rarely in tight jeans and its use has remained the same since.

Do you think Google would replace it?

I just contacted Google and they provided me with LG's number as they could not do anything themselves...

UPDATE: I informed LG of the issue and they referred me back to Google.
