See if the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus survive being dropped 12 times

Vlad, 16 September 2016

If you live in Australia you had the possibility of being one of the first people in the world to go into an Apple store and leave with an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus today. And that's exactly what one enterprising individual did. He bought both, in fact. So now that he has in his possession Apple's two latest and greatest smartphones, what is he to do?

Well, drop them. Again and again. For 12 times in total, from two different heights. That's the obvious answer, isn't it? See for yourself how (or if) they managed to survive this torture in the video below.

Yes, this claims to be the world's first drop test for the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, for what it's worth. So you've just watched history being made. Or something like that. A final note - if you just bought an iPhone, don't do drop tests on it, okay? Don't try this at home. In fact, do try enjoying your brand-spanking-new mobile device instead. You'll have plenty of time to drop it by accident in the coming weeks and months.

It is the achilles ' heel of this phone. The protrude lens, we can see the protrude lens very easy get scratched from the drop test.

Oh yeah. That's because it uses a glass that doesn't crack but can get scratched by fingernails and cannot be protected by a screen protector because it is curved. Cool. And then it explodes.
