A group of friends conducted a durability test on a new iPhone by dropping it from a height of about 6 feet onto asphalt. The phone was dropped multiple times, and the results were unpredictable, with some drops causing significant damage and others resulting in minimal harm.
The group tested three iPhones, and only one survived the drops without significant damage. The other two phones suffered from cracked screens, bent frames, and damaged internal components.
The test was conducted to see how well the new iPhone could withstand drops and to determine the randomness of the damage. The group concluded that the results of drop tests are unpredictable and that even if a phone is dropped from the same height and angle, the damage can vary significantly.
The group also discussed the possibility of repairing the damaged phones and the cost of replacing the damaged components. They concluded that some parts, such as the screen and frame, can be replaced, but others, such as the internal components, may be more difficult to repair.
The test was documented on video, and the group is giving away one of the iPhones that survived the drops. To enter the giveaway, viewers must like the video, subscribe to the channel, and leave a comment.
