The drops onto the cinderblock are actually much more difficult tests than the drop onto the flat steel surface. The protrusions on the cinderblock can definitely shatter the glass, like a glass breaker with a tip, compared to a flat surface.
The case is compared to the case. For this test to be meaningful, it is necessary to compare the case in the video with the thick cases sold for 1 dollar in China. If there is a difference, then we will be convinced.
Moral of the story is get a case. I never even open the box on a new phone until my case arrives! Saved me thousands of Pounds over the last 15 years! I think a poll said 85% of those polled have a case, which is great. I assume the other 15% are loaded and can afford the repairs.
You don't need a bulky ugly case. A minimalistic case with a glass screen cover will do the same job. I know cause I use this combo for years without issues and without a bulky ugly ass case.

Hardness only increases protection against scratches etc. But hardness takes away the ability of bending and stretching. This results simply in more sensitive for breaking. I personally would choose scratches instead of breaking the glass. I know some people much more like to break the glass, they are the ones profit from it.

Never underestimate the power of a raised lip! I have a 4 years old OnePlus 6 with an "official"(aliexpress) slim TPU case and it has a few mm of raised lip. The phone is still perfectly fine after hundreds of drops (most 1+ meters). Any new case I bought(even the same one from aliexpress!) All had a lower lip and i simply put them in the drawer and still use that old case. It looks horrible now(paint is scraped and you can see the transparent part of the tpu) but it works wonderfully!
Great work tht u doing. This gives us a great perspective about the claims from both companies. Can’t wait to see the speed test and battery drain test too 💥💥💥
I seen you tapped your finger the same way when testing the fingerprint scanner on the ultra, you have to move your finger around so it can scan the tip and sides of the fingerprint so it can unlock from all angles.
@@davidzahemen585 The phone looks pretty much the same, but the way it’s put together is different. Basically instead of opening it from the front, it’s opened at the back, meaning the previously irreplaceable back is actually reasonably repairable now.
At the round 3 you compared the face id that is still working with the fingerprint scanner which is not. But let's remember the S22 also allows us to unlock the screen through the camera, just like the iphone. Fingertip is just one more option (which for many is even more usual).
ceramic shield is technically harder than Gorilla Glass victus+, allowing it to be less susceptible to scratches from lvl 6 hardness objects on the Mohs Scale of Hardness. Of course, glass being glass, this higher hardness does not mean that it is tougher and less susceptible to cracking than other glass. To be sure, harder objects, such as crystal and diamonds, are much easier to shatter but less hard to scratch.
Yes. The higher the hardness rating of glass, the lower its tensile strength becomes while increasing its compressive strength. So as you said, higher scratch resistance at the cost of cracking/shattering easier.
glass is glass. doesnt matter tough glass, diamond glass, atom glass or whatever the name is... when its flat, intact on someting it will crack or shatter when drop.. only difference is either totally shattered into pieces or it just crack.. thats how we know its strong or not. you can feel the premium build on iphone 14 compare to S22U... but it come with cost where its easily crack when drop(nakedly) so use screen protector and get a good case.. unless you are rich

So much for "The toughest Glass"...Cover your phone with a case and front glass protector...which means, the color of the phone you get is absolutely a non issue ( because it will be completely covered). Thanks for this simple test...brilliant.
The added weight of the iPhone is really not helping at all. Apple has to improve their materials once again because reducing the battery is not really an option anymore. Reducing the quality of materials is not the Apple way either. So they need something that is stronger than steel but just as fancy and good looking.
The iPhone 14 Pro are exactly the same weight as last year. And that despite the fact that the batteries got BIGGER on the 14 Pro - not smaller. And the difference on the Pro Max is negligible. It went from 4352 to 4323. Android manufacturers use 4900 mAh batteries but advertise them as 5000 mAu because there are always slight differences between each battery. Which means: the 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max have the same sized battery after all.
I feel like as these phones get heavier they get more vulnerable regardless with the improvements. Like I don’t remember the 12 Pro Max suffering as much as the 13 and 14. Like I don’t think they are consider weight with these designs or don’t care cause you are going to put a case on it.

@@nwa974 hahaha I’m just saving every penny so I can afford one and this guy’s just breaking it to proof how easy can break, it just make my heart wanna work even more 🥹🤣
Waiting for my 14 Pro Max to arrive and I was considering going case-less and just getting AppleCare+. I’ve always used cases on all my devices but I don’t want to cover up the beauty, specifically the color! Plus Applecare+ includes unlimited accidental instances now (as opposed to the old 2/year). Anyone have experience or thoughts going case-less and relying on Applecare as your “protection”? 😅
The only test in this that is valid is the first one (when the back breaks on the iPhone.) After that, there's no telling how much damage is incurred from each new test because the fractured glass is just going to fracture more no matter what happens to it. Like with a car windshield, the glass is likely integral to the structure and once compromised the ability to absorb impacts may be significantly affected. I'd like to see a repeat of the other tests with undamaged iPhones. That's the only way to know what, especially, the corner drop actually does to an undamaged iPhone.
Nah these tests are actually completely useless. You can always be lucky or have bad luck with a drop. You can drop your phone from 3m and nothing happens and you can drop it from 50cm with a case and the glass breaks. All these tests show nothing but how the phones get damaged when they drop in EXACTLY the ways the get dropped here and your phone will never drop exactly like this. Even in these standardized tests here the phone always drops slightly different which has huge impact on the damage.
I don't think that is a good idea, from a logical standpoint. The stainless steel is probably more expensive and more difficult zu manufacture, at the same time doesn't help the phone not to crack its glass. Using flat screens instead of curved woulf probably be better.
It's hurt right in the heart. I'm from Brazil and the cost of these phone are really higher than other countries. So we need to have even more carefully 💀
Apple needs to switch the Pro iPhones’ material to titanium to make them more drop resistant (it’s more durable and it’s lighter-you know it’s a good material for extreme conditions since they used it in the Watch Ultra). Apple also needs to minimize that camera bump. It’s a really big point of failure and previous iPhones with smaller camera bumps fared better on the drop test. Maybe make the phone thicker and switch to a hybrid design that curves towards the back but is flat towards the front? Kind of like the iPod touches.
Is it me or did both phone's durability get worse? I remember when phonebuff tested the 12 Pro Max and the S21U, they both went through multiple rounds of drops before getting some type of crack.
Apple employee :" sir, last we downgraded the durability of our device, users weren't happy. Should we, perhaps, make it as good as iPhone 12 this time?" Tim :"nah make it even worse" Fanboi : InNoVaTiOn, Apple is da best.
one question what do you do with the phones once you have tested them? because I've always wanted an IPhone and I just wanted to ask if I could possibly have Please a broken one from your videos?
The reason the back looks worse is because Ceramic Shield is only supported on the front. But close race overall. It’ll be interesting to see how they both do in the battery and performance test. I expect the iPhone to win in both.
@@NadeemAhmed-nv2br i said WORSE because the word WORSE is a comparative word. Relative to the front glass of the iPhone, the back glass looks WORSE. Again, reading comprehension.
I have the castify ultra impact case for my iPhone 13 Pro Max. I have dropped my phone 3 times on concrete and the phone was completely fine. When you buy a 1000$ iPhone you might as well just spend a little more and get a drop protecting case
Your tests should ALWAYS start with the corner drop. Not sure if your first drops are corner drops in your vids in general since i'm not a regular fan of your videos but i'd suggest you switch the back drop with the corner drop as that's the most droppable position when a phone is falling to the ground
@@cossieboy Glad you asked, the first test iPhone took substantialy More damage even to the camera and he scored it close. Second test the iPhone did better with the corner scuff but still took a lot of damage to the back and he scored it a tie.

@@Randomdude21-e deep dents won't cut your finger if you're using it tho, as compared to literal glass shards
So much for "The toughest Glass"...Cover your phone with a case and front glass protector...which means, the color of the phone you get is absolutely a non issue ( because it will be completely covered). Thanks for this simple test...brilliant.
As a marketer, well done Casetify on the campaign 👏🏾 I want!
in your last drop test iphone shattered exactly the same way. What a coincidence.
The test all have been waiting for! It’s not official if it’s done Phone buff style ❤🔥
when will you drop the concrete on the phone? 😆
The added weight of the iPhone is really not helping at all. Apple has to improve their materials once again because reducing the battery is not really an option anymore. Reducing the quality of materials is not the Apple way either. So they need something that is stronger than steel but just as fancy and good looking.
The iPhone 14 Pro are exactly the same weight as last year. And that despite the fact that the batteries got BIGGER on the 14 Pro - not smaller. And the difference on the Pro Max is negligible.
It went from 4352 to 4323.
Android manufacturers use 4900 mAh batteries but advertise them as 5000 mAu because there are always slight differences between each battery. Which means: the 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max have the same sized battery after all.
@@Raja995mh33 Well it could be just bad luck then. After all it is only 1 phone.
IPhone 14: the weakest toughest glass on a smartphone 🤣💦
Very good video bro make more videos like this love you guys👍
I feel like as these phones get heavier they get more vulnerable regardless with the improvements. Like I don’t remember the 12 Pro Max suffering as much as the 13 and 14. Like I don’t think they are consider weight with these designs or don’t care cause you are going to put a case on it.
I actually closing my eyes with every drop, I was almost crying 🥹🥹🥹🤣
problem of poor people, watchin this kind of vid and wish to have one, almost cry because YT content creator waste 2 beautiful smartphone just to reach a lot of view, a lot of view given by poor people in front of their screen
@@nwa974 hahaha I’m just saving every penny so I can afford one and this guy’s just breaking it to proof how easy can break, it just make my heart wanna work even more 🥹🤣
Waiting for my 14 Pro Max to arrive and I was considering going case-less and just getting AppleCare+. I’ve always used cases on all my devices but I don’t want to cover up the beauty, specifically the color! Plus Applecare+ includes unlimited accidental instances now (as opposed to the old 2/year). Anyone have experience or thoughts going case-less and relying on Applecare as your “protection”? 😅
I’ve been doing that for few years now go for it.
Apple recently said iphones don't need cases 😂😂
They never said that dude.
It's cute to see how many iphone people are knocking off the Nothing Phones design in one way or another.
The only test in this that is valid is the first one (when the back breaks on the iPhone.) After that, there's no telling how much damage is incurred from each new test because the fractured glass is just going to fracture more no matter what happens to it. Like with a car windshield, the glass is likely integral to the structure and once compromised the ability to absorb impacts may be significantly affected. I'd like to see a repeat of the other tests with undamaged iPhones. That's the only way to know what, especially, the corner drop actually does to an undamaged iPhone.
Came here to say this. As soon as the first crack appears, the structural integrity is compromised and will affect how they perform with other drops.
from my experience with any phone a corner drop will most likely destroy the glass its just how glass is its all about how its hit
Ah yes, like my life isn't already filled with anxiety problems, I have come here to give myself a heart attack.
One of the most awaited test!

Nah these tests are actually completely useless. You can always be lucky or have bad luck with a drop.
You can drop your phone from 3m and nothing happens and you can drop it from 50cm with a case and the glass breaks.
All these tests show nothing but how the phones get damaged when they drop in EXACTLY the ways the get dropped here and your phone will never drop exactly like this.
Even in these standardized tests here the phone always drops slightly different which has huge impact on the damage.
Drop test ip14:✅️
Police, Ambulance, cia, rescue rangers: "guys we got a emergency call"
its because curved screen, otherwise it would be still pretty normal i think
Uhh probably not lol both phones have pretty much no curve unless you’re talking about the minuscule amount around the edges
@@xDbrad yeah samsung has no curved glass ofc
6:16 Those are not dead pixels, it is the chin of the s22 ultra.
Samsung phones do not have chins, unless you in selfie mode
Samsung should definitely start having models with stainless steel, feels heavier more premium
The Note20 ultra
I don't think that is a good idea, from a logical standpoint. The stainless steel is probably more expensive and more difficult zu manufacture, at the same time doesn't help the phone not to crack its glass.
Using flat screens instead of curved woulf probably be better.
@@maitremanta3672 nah curved screen is the core selling point of samsung i also like it
It's hurt right in the heart. I'm from Brazil and the cost of these phone are really higher than other countries. So we need to have even more carefully 💀
My phone doesn't fall, I'll use a screen protector if I feel it's needed
Screen protectors only protect from scratches
@@perkaholic1865 something is always better than nothing
We want to see xiaomi and Huawei flagship phones here💎💎💎
We want the battery test 🙂
this is not DropTest, this is the Promotion of that Mobile case
I just ordered the bounce case after watching this. Glad you did the test
I would love to see casefiy vs original iphone case
Apple needs to switch the Pro iPhones’ material to titanium to make them more drop resistant (it’s more durable and it’s lighter-you know it’s a good material for extreme conditions since they used it in the Watch Ultra).
Apple also needs to minimize that camera bump. It’s a really big point of failure and previous iPhones with smaller camera bumps fared better on the drop test.
Maybe make the phone thicker and switch to a hybrid design that curves towards the back but is flat towards the front? Kind of like the iPod touches.
bro nah many don't want a 300 bucks price increase
@@eulehund99 exactly 💀
Man, just buy a case. Simple
Problem, why do I love him so much, it's better for me it's an iPhone hahahahaha
Lets be real for a sec.. Those ceramic and gorillas glass screens are just as fragile as they were on the Galaxy S1 and the first Iphone
My Chinese one plus 7 pro had plenty of no case hard drops without cracking!
Screen replacement makes big money
Not on the note 20 ultra/iphone 12 pro max
Do a iPhone SE 2nd gen vs iPhone SE 3rd gen Drop Test! Plz plz plz
The Fold 4 did way better in it's drop tests!
Him : which phone broke first?
Me : Your wallet
I'm waiting for a speed test and battery test
Up
The pain of watching the phones I can't afford being completely crushed 😭
Is it me or did both phone's durability get worse? I remember when phonebuff tested the 12 Pro Max and the S21U, they both went through multiple rounds of drops before getting some type of crack.
Its just luck, results will never be the same
they did not, Apple I think changed their design on the back glass, they protrude it more so that its easier to repair when broken.
@@johnricang8791 I can see that. What's up with S22U then?
@@superiortoall22 that i have no idea
@@johnricang8791 that was done only on base iphones i think, not sure tho
Apple employee :" sir, last we downgraded the durability of our device, users weren't happy. Should we, perhaps, make it as good as iPhone 12 this time?"
Tim :"nah make it even worse"
Fanboi : InNoVaTiOn, Apple is da best.
You used to do 10 bonus drops, what happened?
Was wondering the same myself.
one question what do you do with the phones once you have tested them? because I've always wanted an IPhone and I just wanted to ask if I could possibly have Please a broken one from your videos?
The reason the back looks worse is because Ceramic Shield is only supported on the front. But close race overall. It’ll be interesting to see how they both do in the battery and performance test. I expect the iPhone to win in both.
The ceramic shield on the front cracked as well bro
@@propersod2390 reading comprehension, he said that the back looks WORSE than the front, not that the front glass didn't crack or what.
@@GeloMeme It doesn't just look worse on the back, it is missing physical chunks of glass
@@NadeemAhmed-nv2br i said WORSE because the word WORSE is a comparative word. Relative to the front glass of the iPhone, the back glass looks WORSE. Again, reading comprehension.
@@GeloMeme it's just how the phone fell, ceramic shield on this year's iPhone is basically regular glass
Waiting for your speed test phonebuff
I have the castify ultra impact case for my iPhone 13 Pro Max. I have dropped my phone 3 times on concrete and the phone was completely fine. When you buy a 1000$ iPhone you might as well just spend a little more and get a drop protecting case
I had a cheap 3 dollar case on my older iPhone and it literally broke the day I took the case off.
Any case is probably fine.
The case sure works but makes the phone look ridiculous
I really wish he used the other slimmer case option so I could see how well that one worked :(
Your tests should ALWAYS start with the corner drop. Not sure if your first drops are corner drops in your vids in general since i'm not a regular fan of your videos but i'd suggest you switch the back drop with the corner drop as that's the most droppable position when a phone is falling to the ground
According to shape of the iphone it should have done better, but in this case it did worse.
A "case test" would be awesome. maybe a cheap 5$ case vs the bounce case
S22 ultra is the winner
Brodi the screen on the s22 was incinerated
Very good
You spoiled it for me
Best video for internet good luck brother 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
He really doesn't want to say apple lost 😂😂😂
How did Apple lose
@@cossieboy Glad you asked, the first test iPhone took substantialy More damage even to the camera and he scored it close. Second test the iPhone did better with the corner scuff but still took a lot of damage to the back and he scored it a tie. You can even see the chunks of glass falling out of the iPhone on the corner drop
@@oxenfree4355 yes but the iPhone’s screen is better and Face ID still works and Samsungs fingerprint doesn’t work
@@cossieboyright which is the only round Samsung lost
@@oxenfree4355 and with the corner drop the frame of the Samsung got deep scratches and iphone almost nothing
I wanna see the bounce case vs the otter box defender pro and see who wins
