Hello Zack, just wondering if you could also add/do IP-rating test as part of Durability test 🤔. You kind-of did it for folding phone with sand/rock/dust.
IP test do not give immediate results, and they are mostly deceiving. like submersion under water for 30 min - so if I keep phone under water for 29 min, take it out and then put again under water for 29 min will it survive? scratch test is for the dust scratches.
@@GuitarSlayer136 Some people have pointed it's actually very useful for people living in hot climates like Utah or Arizona for example, where they've left their phone in a car or somewhere, it got very hot and messed up their screen, so having a phone that can survive being hot for a while would be very beneficial for those people.
@@vgamesx1 Arizona heat is not a bic lighter with all of the particulates and chemicals burning your screen at temperatures the sun couldn't induce in a hyper localized area.

jerry is right in testing how much punishment can this phone take i mean its a gaming phone buyers will be having rage moments during a bad game and they will tend to throw or mash the screen

@@moonshot9056 I don’t routinely try to snap my phones in half, maybe that’s just me. I highly doubt daily use would see this phone bent like that even if you did sit on it.

the frames, i blame the frames, the frames is slim, and thats why it bends like that, they didnt reinforce it, they just use the last gen frame and put new stuff in it.
@@wanstarz Right, the frame also has too many weak spots like the many antenna lines and the charging port on the side. And I guess that the buttons are removable doesn’t help here.
These phones break so fast, internals bad too, I've had 3 Asus ROG phones and all of them had vibration issues, sim card issues and screen issues, and I had a beefy protector case and glass protector, still broke, all of them.
The box design is garbage. It's even less "trendy" than the box design for the Genius DeathTaker mouse, eons ago. As much as it hurts to say it, Apple still has the last word in box design. If they'd apply the same logic to "hip" and "cool", maybe it would look and function better.
I'm really upset that LG quit making phones because the phone that I'm talking to you on right now has been run over by an 18-wheeler and I didn't know it but the whole back of it is glass is shattered and the phone still works fine

Would be great to add some real world test before the torture test. For example dropping the phone off a table to see who it does. Also I think a phone should be evaluated as it comes from the box for example for this phone not removing the added protective layer on the screen at first and putting the case that it came with on.
Phone designers are some of the most incompetent and "last year" people around. Have you seen a spread of phone designs from the last half decade? They basically look the same, and not just externally. As for their engineers... gutless. I think i've seen toy manufacturers with better engineers than these guys. It takes less force to bend this joke of a phone than it takes to break a long LEGO brick. Heck, you'd hurt your fingers trying to bend one of those. Funny thing is the solution would be so simple, and already common in lightweight, narrow item design. Either a hardened metal rod or a carbon fiber rod. Some super narrow plastic shelves have carbon fiber rods inside them when cast. Aesthetic design doesn't need to be hindered if your engineer team is top notch. You can have a wafer thin phone, but if your team's made of glue sniffers... no comment.
I waited for your test cause my phone is always on my back pocket and I had some break. Too bad for this one. Was hoping it would have done better this time. No rog for me😔
People who put their phone in their back pocket are a different breed I swear, literally the worst place to put your phone for so many different reasons.
You honestly have the very best reviews that simultaneously teach the phone specs and display it’s durability and build. I always look forward to seeing you dig into a device… with a Razer blade. You’re the real Razer blade pro.
Is it too much to ask for a steel frame? Even Apple finally somewhat fixed the 5 years of bend-gate with stainless steel frames on the pro models. Feels good to have a thin yet heavy phone. And it helps with the drop durability too from its rigidity.
Why is it a shame? Do you plan on purposely bending the phone in half? No? Then like everyone else on the planet who isn't breaking phones for clicks, it'll be just fine.
@@larkan511 You do realize this is in fact a problem, right? The test isn't even that extreme, it can literally happen if you sit down with your phone in your back pocket.
@@kadrix732 Kind of a dumb move to be honest though. I've never one sat on my phone. And it's not even comparable forces, unless you're sitting on a rigid protruding object in the center of the screen and your butt cheek pressed from the other side at the top and bottom of the phone, all while you don't feel a thing.
@@_BangDroid_ I mean, obviously you shouldn't sit on your phone. But in case you forgot you put it in your back pocket or something, it's good to know it definitely will survive, you know?
I would be interested to see how much an OtterBox case would effect this thing overheating. I wonder if putting a hefty case on it would trade temperature for durability
Hi Zack, unfortunately my ROG Phone 6 Pro bent exactly on the USB port in my front pocket and it broke the whole backside. I shared my experience on Reddit and contacted Asus. Asus did not want to acknowledge their design error and I had to pay €400 to fix my phone... FYI: My phone was inside a transparant TPU case.
Damn ...that's too bad. I guess premium price should get premium service. Maybe asus should give customer to buy accidental damage protection like lenovo laptops.
Sadly, that's the level of customer service one should expect when dealing with Anus. They're known as one of the worst companies when it comes to customer service for a reason.
Toughness is exposed through your channel. Love it always. I think before phone companies advertise their toughness shoud be after their phones landed on jerryrig's hands.
Protection is what we have phone cases for, would like to see durability test on those aswell. The different armor cases, which imo is a must when you get an expensive phone like this 😁 i know i have to be careful with it tomorrow when it arrives thanks to you!
@@iHasCaek well in that respect, technically, so do phone makers. Asus definitely knows this already. But a better example could be 'wait till you find out what the banks did in 2008' lol

And it's not even comparable forces, unless you're sitting on a rigid protruding object in the center of the screen and your butt cheek pressed from the other side at the top and bottom of the phone, all while you don't feel a thing.
@@_BangDroid_ I mean, obviously you shouldn't sit on your phone. But in case you forgot you put it in your back pocket or something, it's good to know it definitely will survive, you know?
This phone would be the best gaming phone if it was rage-resistant
I would be interested to see how much an OtterBox case would effect this thing overheating.
I wonder if putting a hefty case on it would trade temperature for durability
First time watching. This is a whole different world, I like it.
this phone cant handle my rage it would break from my first rage
"There's a shortage of perfect phones in the world and it would be a pity to damage this one."
I see what you did there and I applaud you, sir.
We have the most durable phone ever made
JerryRig: Hold up my beer😅
The Golden Girls!.. love that comedy show.
Hi Zack, unfortunately my ROG Phone 6 Pro bent exactly on the USB port in my front pocket and it broke the whole backside. I shared my experience on Reddit and contacted Asus. Asus did not want to acknowledge their design error and I had to pay €400 to fix my phone... FYI: My phone was inside a transparant TPU case.
Damn ...that's too bad.
I guess premium price should get premium service.
Maybe asus should give customer to buy accidental damage protection like lenovo laptops.
I would of just got a better phone like a Samsung
Sadly, that's the level of customer service one should expect when dealing with Anus. They're known as one of the worst companies when it comes to customer service for a reason.
@@theo5675 Samsung phones may have expanded battery too lol
Toughness is exposed through your channel. Love it always. I think before phone companies advertise their toughness shoud be after their phones landed on jerryrig's hands.
3:35 rog 5 to rog 6 : bro this guy is a mad man !! Escape bro escape while you still can !!!
It evolved into a fold phone? Amazing feature ASUS.
everyone struggling to make folding phones, because they cant bend gla-
Protection is what we have phone cases for, would like to see durability test on those aswell. The different armor cases, which imo is a must when you get an expensive phone like this 😁 i know i have to be careful with it tomorrow when it arrives thanks to you!
I couldn't stomache watching someone willingly break something that's over a thousand dollars in price 💀
wait till you find out most car makers gets their cars crash tested....
@@iHasCaek except its actually necessary 💀 i dont see people bending or burning their phones lol
@@iHasCaek well in that respect, technically, so do phone makers. Asus definitely knows this already. But a better example could be 'wait till you find out what the banks did in 2008' lol
@@mrducky179 except people HAVE had bent phones. that's literally the reason this channel is popular.
The ad revenue from a couple of hundred thousands viewers wanting to see just that makes it worth it.
Jerry is like the afterlife of all smartphones 🤣
"The top of the phone has nothing... just like Yey after last week"... that joke is just prime!
"The top of the phone has nothing *long pause* just like Ye after last week."
I snorted so hard My choccy milk almost came out my nose.
Not everything is meant to withstand Jerry’s torture test 😂
Who is jerry
Jerry is Zack's grandfather... Zack named the channel after his grandfather
No matter how expensive it is. At certain point of expensive it's dumb, circles back to stupid.
Even he'd struggled for opening the box, he still keep the formality of his speech, lol
If the main screen was placed on the back it would have passed Jerry's bend test 😂😂😂
Powerful on the inside, fragile on the out 😂
Watching this on my ROG 3 phone. I think my phone scared to death now.
"Has nothing, like Ye after last week"
Besides his priceless legacy, of course. The easiest way to control a man is through his ego - with trinkets, toys, and prizes.
8:57 the most heart breaking scene for the people like me who aren’t able to afford a phone like this💔😥
Shoulda worked harder in school
They never said its indestructible!
Gaming phones break way too easily.
Gaming phones are fucking stupid full stop
