The iPhone 15 Pro Max vs Galaxy S23 Ultra drop test raises questions over titanium strength

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

JohnSalamii, 02 Oct 2023what does the back glass cracking have to do with the titan... moreStainless steel is softer than titanium so if you try to bend an older iphone pro, it will absorb the bending force and flex. Titanium is a harder metal so the bending force will be diverted to the back glass and shatter. This means a corner drop will now also shatter the back or front glass which is a step back in terms of durability.

      Is ceramic shield still Gorilla 6?

      Victus 2 is basically "Gorilla 9".

        I appreciate the fact that even GSMArena admits that these „tests“ are absurd and nothing more than clickbaits done by flaunty „influencer“ snobs to increase their view counter and overinflated ego.

          I still think having a hard mate plastic or metal back is better choice
          I don't understand why we need glass backs on a phone since it will be covered in case anyway so it doesn't even serve the purpose of asthetics either

            JohnSalamii, 02 Oct 2023what does the back glass cracking have to do with the titan... moreShock resistance, I guess, I don't know really.

                  what does the back glass cracking have to do with the titanium frame?

                    Better compare with both same build in different brand

                      When will the software update come to fix the broken glass?

                        Imagine a day apple admit design flaw!!
