Iphone 6 bending feature or defect?

Hello! So this bend thing in IPhone 6, is it a feature or is it a defect in some of the models? I heard they had this feature that IPhone could be bent and easily put in the pockets but few people were saying to me that it is actually a defect not a feature. I was even told that if your model shows this defect, apple would give you another defect free IPhone 6 for free.
