Well obviously the back is glass and it going to crack. The stones are small , and have blunt sides. Try the test on fives larger flat surfaces.

Didn't Samsung learn anything from the iPhone 4?

That is if it's 2 years old or more.

I love how all the fans use a physical drop test to justify iPhone being better like I personally have the 6S but even I know the GS7 Edge [i know this was the standard s7 in the test but I'm talking about the edge] is better in every other way in terms of hardware and software. (I.e. Camera, battery life, AMOLED panel, better looking design [you're going to put a case on it anyways so this doesn't really matter], Wide Angle front camera, 4GB of ram [if I'm not mistaken] larger display, less bezel) the list goes on and on, seriously super scared that Apple will become blackberry because they think they're too good. Leaks are pointing towards the same design for the iPhone 7 also, last year and the year before leaks around this time were spot on for the iPhone 6's redesign, if all Apple can bring to the table this year is a new camera and slightly faster processor, I'll pass and look for alternatives. NOT TO MENTION the lack of headphone jack, so disappointing, I use my headphone jack for so many different accessories around my house. I'm not trying to be a troll I'm just stating my disappointment this year with Apple.

Of course a phone released after iPhone is going to be better because they know the specs then try to make something better than what the iPhone has. It's all cat and mouse, but for Apple in general, Apple feels that they've been doing good it's bec,a use they are normally known for that. Not that they are caught up in these moments, but it fuels them to try to do something new, but if they were to become the new blackberry, they would stick to an old generation of phones which is still the case with blackberry to this day, but apple isn't doing too bad, it's just that phones released months after iPhone is their way of doing good which basically makes it an unfair comparison because one phone has more newer technology than the other.

Okay let's put it this way, the GS6 edge was almost better than the 6S, y'all are missing the point m, Samsung is doing stuff apple refuses to do which is why they are starting to surpass Apple!

What could possibly better about the s6 when it eliminated most of what s5 had?

Where do you use the headphone jack in your phone around your house? I don't get you. I can't think of a device that uses headphone jacks but on headphones and RCA cables only. Most of the devices like docks use the lightning port thus also charge the phone at the same time. Audiophiles prefer the lightning port when they connect their amp/DACs to get the best sound when they listen to their phones. In the gym people use bluetooth eliminating the cable as distraction in their exercise. Home devices use bluetooth or wifi to connect to smart home devices like the Philips Hue. So I don't get you ranting of a phone that became useless without the headphone jack port. And besides iPhone is still the most supported by hardware and accessory brands.

Hah! Samsung tried to be an elegant premium phone but it became its design flaw. Wrong choice of premium material - glass back cover! You can still make a call by siri on an iPhone even the screen has died out in the bonus round. iPhone win!

This proves why s7 isn't without a certain amount of that iPhone is capable of.
