02 October 2023
Both phones' glass panels break, but the Galaxy is by far the better functioning in the long run.

Impact test or similar to that.its better when phone is clamp static and impacter is moving energy,so as to focus more to point of impact and see the outcome of damaged,with accurate results.

    Only people without proper education thinks that titanium alloys have high strength. In reality, most steel´s ultimate strength is way higher, in case of martensitic grades even couple times. Titanium has excellent biocompatibility, high temperature endurance and corrosion resistance, but it is not worth using for a room temperature applications (expensive, tough for machining, relative low strength and lower thermal conductivity).

      Best iphone ever made xd

Better to get samsung midrange with plastic back, it is wayy more durable.. and cheaper... and day to day performance? not too bad, this is 2023, it's not 2013. Samsung midrange has improved so much since then to the point that it's already so good that you don't really need flagship anymore.

Also to let you know, Samsung flagships are by far the worst performing in durability tests. They just break like wet cookie on the very first drop

None of the Xiaomi phones i used have bloating battery issue i.e. Redmi Note 8, Mi A3, Mi 9T and current Poco F3. The Mi A3 got a stuck power button and i got it fixed at very low cost. Funnily, my Samsung Grand Prime kept getting bloated batteries during the 2 years I have it.

                        I had two chinese phones (xiaomi), both of them had experienced bloating battery and failing side buttons before i moved to Samsung. Will buy Samsung again as my next new phone.

                            Apple always talk the talk, always fails to walk the walk.

                            When will people learn that they're a con. Made in China. Literally.

                                    Both are made up to break up so we keep coming up with another 12 hundie. They could easily just build the external casing of that ugly case into the external or exoskeleton OEM case that surrounds the glass. That would just be too beneficial for the consumer to have something that lasts longer than 12 months though huh?

                                      rizki1, 02 Oct 2023When will the software update come to fix the broken glass?They lowered the price of the repair, what else ? 😁😬😅

Best is to stop visiting those kind of channels. That will lead to fall in clicks for them leading to fall in revenue leading to stopping saying that kind of stuff hopefully.
