iPhone 7 Survives Drop Tests Better then iPhone 6s

Public Service Announcement

Apparently, Apple has been listening to its customers and making future iPhones more durable and drop resistant.

A web site by the name of EverythingApplePro conducted some drop tests between an iPhone 6s and a new iPhone 7.  The test was conducted by dropping both iPhones from 10 feet.  The test was conducted with both iPhones dropped from the side of the phone and face down.

The results?  The iPhone 6s was completely shattered, while the iPhone 7 seemed to be ok.  But the iPhone 7’s rear sapphire cover glass (the camera bump) was damaged but the person could still take photos.

Of course, Apple makes no claims about the durability of their iPhones.  But, as the tests show, they are headed in the right direction.

To view the actual test, watch below.
