Drop test Apple vs Samsung
 

Thought this was interesting.

Not very scientific... pretty random as far as drop angle and random uneven surface.

I agree. Would like to see much larger sample size but that would get quite expensive for a you tube video.

Was nice to see an Android user tip his hat to the Apple screen's durability. The fact that the video was done by an Andriod advocate does give it some credibility in my book...

-Z-man.

Typing this on an iPad and have an iPhone as well, not a huge Apple fan but products are good enough for what I use them for. I can give you a first hand story that happened last week. One of my workers had his iPhone in his shirt pocket when he leaned over and it fell out and onto the ground. He was on a tower crane!!!!! It fell about 160 ft into dirt, broke the back but still works! Pretty amazing, would not believe it if I did not see it.

On my second iphone, and it is indeed a tough SOB. The glass is tough as hell. I dropped my first one in a cup of coffee. I drained it out, and let a hair dryer blow into it for an hour. It worked fine! (Yes, it stunk like coffee for while)
