Apple focused not only on design and performance, but also on durability with this year's generation of iPhones. And the first independent tests show that it paid off. At least, this is according to a test by the insurance company Allstate Protection Plans, which published a traditional comparison of new products. The results will please especially those who do not pay much attention to their phones.
Very pleasantly surprised during the flexibility test iPhone Air as the thinnest iPhonewho ever Apple created with a thickness of just 5,6 mm. In a bending test, it withstood a pressure of 190 pounds, or about 86 kilograms, before it began to deform. Just to give you an idea, the infamous iPhone The iPhone 6 from the “bendgate” era bent at just 110 pounds, or just 50 kilograms. Air So you definitely don't have to worry about bending. As for the iPhone 17 Pro with its aluminum construction, it held up a little better. It only started to deform at a load of 200 pounds, or 90 kilos. The best of the whole range was iPhone 17 Pro Max, which bent at a pressure of 240 pounds, which is equivalent to almost 109 kilograms.

The drop tests didn't produce such great results, but it's worth noting that they didn't disappoint either. When the display was dropped from a height of six feet, or roughly 1,8 meters, it cracked both iPhone Air, So iPhone 17 For, although Apple this year he used improved material Ceramic Shield 2. The phones remained functional, but the shards on the glass were sharp enough to make using them risky.

When dropped on its back, the iPhone 17 Pro's aluminum frame proved to provide solid protection, as the phone only sustained minor scratches. In contrast, iPhone Air with a titanium frame ended up with a cracked back panel, although it still worked. Compared to last year's iPhone 16 Pro, however, the drop tests of this year's models turned out very well. Last year, the display and back cracked on the first drop and the phone was practically impossible to use safely. Overall, it is true that Apple He did a good job with this year's generation. iPhone Air Although it loses a bit when dropped compared to the Pro version, it is still a phone that can withstand more than last year's series.
what about all those articles, photos and videos, how easy are they to scratch??? is that resilience?
Will scratching bend the phone or crack the glass?
So just bending or cracking is the damage?
This case will be associated with Apple.
Let's try to compare it to something you understand. Do you have a vehicle? If you have a vehicle, please put it on a jack and look up from the bottom, I'm almost sure that you will see more or less damage to the chassis that has never touched the ground, then compare with your phone what kind of pin has fallen to the ground.
That's a bit of an analogy😂 when I buy a new phone (17pro) and open the original box, the phone is scratched even in the box before I took it out... when I buy a new car and drive it out of the store, the chassis is still like new and sprayed with a fine protection. The thing is, 17 phones come scratched from the factory.

I'm amazed at how beautifully I compared it. In any case, are you really sure that the vehicle leaving the showroom is 100% without any problems?
