Galaxy S20 is more prone to breaking than S20+ and S20 Ultra, test shows

09 March 2020
The large S20 Ultra proved surprisingly durable, rating a "medium risk" (same as S20+). All three phones are equally hard to repair.

Suga, 10 Mar 2020Who rapes their $1000 device like this 🙄 My toddler throws my phone and there is basically nothing I can do about it because she's so fast. You'd think they'd make a more durable phone for $1000 tbh

                              But can you use a tempered glass screen with the S20 ultrasonic fingerprint sensor? More important to me than whether the damned things can survive a hydraulic press.

                                They want their phones to break. If you dropped it, sat on it or swam with it, it's your fault for being careless and the warranty doesn't cover it. So you'll have to pay another $1,000 for a new phone. Good for them, bad for you.

                                      Congratulations. The iPhones (except for the Pro Max) all have lower scores. They're just expensive and difficult to fix. I can safely say even the Huawei Mate 30 Pro should theoretically score lower as well.

                                      Only popular flagships exist in the website unfortunately, can't wait gaming phones to have such listings so I know how rubbish they turn out to be.
