Samsung Galaxy S6 and iPhone 6 Tested With Professional Drop Test Machine [Video]

Posted April 9, 2015 at 9:50pm by
Check out this drop test comparison between the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the iPhone 6 using a professional drop test machine.

We drop test the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the Apple iPhone 6 to see how durable each phone is. We use a professional drop test machine with multiple surfaces to get the most accurate and consistent results possible.


While previous tests have shown the Galaxy S6 to be more durable, when dropped in exactly the same manner using the drop test machine, the iPhone 6 comes out on top.

Take a look at the video below and let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Samsung phone is nothing but a clone. Not even a good one. iPhone 6 after the drop test just need a glass replacement.

I thought you couldn't replace glass in the iPhones now since they're fused to the display panel? Someone please correct me if I'm wrong

Would've been a good drop test had he used different phones for each drop. Once again another dumb drop test with repeated drops to a damaged phone. Get it together. I wanna see the pull out the pocket, fumble, try to save with your foot drop test. Lmao.
