I watched your video 5 years ago where you tested the durability of the Samsung S10, and after that, I bought a second-hand S10 with my own money(Student Days). Until now, the S10 has been very usable with no screen damage and the performance is still superb. Now I use it as my editing tool for my RUclips and Facebook page content. I am grateful that I saw your video that day! Awesome! Thank you! - A fan of yours from the Philippines
I bought the S10+ brad new back in the day, it was so bad after a year that I never owned any Samsung phone again. Only iPhone ever since. And I bought my mom a S22 Ultra+ when it was new, still seems like I made the right choice not owning any Samsung phone. She is not happy with Samsung,... Now I got iPhone 16 Pro Max and Motorola ;)
As a lifelong Android user, I've really been a fan of how mechanically and electronically refined Apple's newer iPhones have been. That paired with iOS receiving more of the features that I've been accustomed to makes me really want to give one of these a try.
I was also a lifelong Samsung user, and swore never to use an iPhone. Then my goalpost moved to never until Apple uses USB-C. Well, I switched to the 15 Pro Max last year and I'm on a 16 Pro Max now. Apple continues to prove me wrong (while also still doing very stupid things I hate) but I'm not mad I switched!
I've had androids since forever. Every time I have to get something setup on my wife's iPhones I really hate the experience. So much going back and forth between apps and settings and search and back buttons are in weird places. Love my Android!!
Looks like my case. Seeing how the Android and iOS are evolving, I decided to give iOS a try after living for 10 years on Galaxy series. That happened in 2022, still don't want to go back.

Hola! From one of your fans in Mexico. I’ve always enjoyed your durability tests, I find them very satisfying. You can’t look at phones the same way after watching! Oh, and very illustrative “Life is short” video! 👍👍👍
Man... Missed opportunity there brother! For some reason, been on this homestead / garden / home improvement / plant kick on top of my typical tech stuff. lol
Wow, watching the iPhone 16 go through your durability tests was so satisfying! It’s good to see how much effort Apple has put into making this phone tougher. Thanks for giving us the chance to win one, Zack! I’d love to put it to the test myself and maybe even try learning some basic repair skills with it. Fingers crossed!
Hey Jerry! I’ve been watching your videos for a while now, and I’ve gotta say, you’ve changed the way I look at phones! I used to just think of phones in terms of looks and camera quality, but now I catch myself thinking about durability, build quality, and even scratch resistance. Winning this phone would be amazing for me - I’m in serious need of an upgrade, and getting one from someone whose opinion I really trust would make it even cooler. Thanks for everything you do to help us make better choices with tech!

It's crazy to me to think that my iPhone 8 Plus and the iPhone 16 Plus have the same refresh rate, considering there were 120Hz phones in the same year that the iPhone 8 Plus released, lol. It is what it is, and it is not good! Nonetheless, 2025 is poised to be a special year for the base iPhone, going up to 120Hz!
Apple has to make a clear separation between standard iphone and the pro version, so that the people who need the higher refresh rate pay for the more expensive phone.

$200 Motorolas do 144 Hz. Of course, high refresh rate is pointless on phones in most cases and better turned off, but it's amazing to have as an option for when you fire up a game. And a $1000 phone should have it as an option.
