Samsung Galaxy S6 edge survives a brutal drop test video

Week in review

Samsung brags about the Corning Gorilla Glass 4 panels used for the Galaxy S6 edge and it might have a good reason for that.

Both the back and the dual-curved 5.1-inch Super AMOLED display have protected by Corning's latest. A Korean video demonstrated the true strength of the glass panels used in Galaxy S6 edge through a brutal drop test.

In the video, the woman first shows the display working normally and then slams the phone three times on the floor. The result was rather impressive with the phone sustaining next to no damage.

That's hardly a scientific approach to testing the toughness, but it should certainly give Galaxy S6 owners some extra piece of mind - even if they do drop their new and expensive phone, chances are it won't mind too much.

Thanks for the tip!

no need of theory just checking the vid makes it fake, unless some well known company makes a official drop test like when a eager (random) customer purchase a newly phone and advice to make a drop test to check the durability well thats a diffe...
