If you read/watch the article carefully. those both are two different guys doing the tests. And how come you first purposefully scratch, then heat and then bend your phone like that in real life usage? Moreover, the phone did quite well in the second test done by another guy, unlike as you claim.

The Sony Z3C was a nightmare for me so was for my wife. The Nexus 6P has no such problem - read, no back glass. So, I'm am extremely happy with this beautiful device so far.
I don't base my opinion on pure fanboyism but real first hand experience!

It doesn't need to be a Chinese company to have something that is 'made in China" or any Chinese speaking countries y'know. Some products from an American brands can be too.

Just buy a case and don't do anything stupid with it and it doesn't make much difference. It still did really well in all other areas of the test, like scratch resistant screen and camera lens.

Anyone who thinks that these tests make any sense is probably an idiot IMHO. Very rarely one would apply that kind of pressure to any phone; very rarely. If you apply that kind of pressure and the phone cracks, that is perfectly normal.
It would only be a problem if it bends very easily when inside pocket

Jerry's hand especially the 2 thumbs must have grown stronger after breaking so many phones that I think he can break some body's head also.

This is an eye opener on how xiaomi and other cheap phone brands were able to sell their products more cheaper than Samsung and Sony and other known high end brand. They cut corners.

Plus, I'm sure even the Mi5 can take atleast 30kg of pressure, your body weight divides evenly so there is no way you'd be putting more than 10-15kg of pressure on the phone.

Thats what you get for being a cheap, greedy person and choosing chinese crap.
Most of the times i fall asleep in bed looking at videos with my headphones on. When i wake up, many times my Sony is somewhere under me. And i immediately check it to see if i managed to crack it. It never happened.
If it would have been on of those cheap chinese phones, not ony i would find it in pieces, but i would also get cut or hurt.
