iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Fail Drop Tests

Immediately after the start of sales of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in several countries, first drop and crash tests began to appear on the Internet. The bad news is that both handsets are not doing well in these ultimate durability tests. While they somehow manage to remain intact when dropped on the side and back, they have no chances when dropped on the face. The smaller iPhone seems to demonstrate slightly better results, but in general, both handsets can’t be called the strongest devices on the market. Take a look at the video and you will understand what I mean.

The iPhone 6 did well when dropped on the side and back, but unsurprisingly suffered when dropped on its face. The 6 Plus, on the other hand, cracked when it landed on the side. However, it sustained little further damage when falling on its face.

What is interesting is that the design of the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s seems to be more durable. You see, it successfully passed through similar drop tests performed by independent journalists, bloggers and ordinary people back in 2012 and 2013.

What do you think about the video above? Will you purchase the iPhone 6 or the iPhone 6 Plus?
