Title: iPhone 15 Pro-series durability upgrade disputed in early drop and bend tests
Post by: Redaktion on September 24, 2023, 18:32:28
The 15 Pro and Pro Max are now hailed as the "strongest" iPhones ever, as they are the first of their line to step up to "Grade 5" titanium in their frames. However, their well-touted toughness compared to their stainless steel forebears has come into question thanks to some initial tests of their durability. They suggest that the fancy new frames, together with some other new design tweaks, might actually make the new top-end iPhones more susceptible to damage.

The pro max is just embarrassingly bad. JerryRigEverything has shown it to be a literal POS.

I hope Samsung or other android manufacturers don't copy this! 😂
Maybe people are dropping it wrong like people don't know how to hold a phone?

Gee, I better make sure not to treat my $1000+ phone like a ragdoll.

these tests are meaningless. Throwing an iPhone from 4 meters in the air and seeing it shatter into a thousand pieces does not mean that the iPhone is not resistant. Why don't you test the consumption of a Mercedes by refueling with egg white? It might not work...

The only way to resolve this for sure is to figure out if it will blend. And then compare blend time to every other model going all the way back to the original iPhone.

P.S. I think this is all just a genius gorilla marketing campaign by the Apple Sales Division to enhance extra sales as people buy brand new phones just to throw them off a bridge.
