I think the reason why S1 and S2 survived better is because their frame is less rigid. Energy from the drop can go through the phone and releases at the back panel, which is popping off.
Hey TechRax, awesome video as always. I have a suggestion on a video to make: washing machine test. You can do it either as two separate videos, or as one combined with the iPhone 6 versus Samsung Galaxy S6. Just simply stick the phone in a washing machine in some pants, and see what happens!
Fun fact: I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 for a short time before throwing it on the floor due to a flight simulator game (probably due to the fact that it showed "Game Over"). It was possible that it was just a bad influence from UA-cam Flappy Bird phone smashing videos. My mother entered the room and gave me a dreadful punishment (which was caning) and I also got grounded. The phone did not have a screen protector when that happened, but I now realize in 2022 that even phone screens with a screen protector still break (the actual screen, not the protector). Overall, Samsung is still my favorite phone brand no matter what. However, the only downside to Samsung is that they don't have much customization features, like using custom non-Samsung fonts. If you want to have custom fonts like Arial or Comic Sans, then a different phone brand (like Huawei) would be ideal.
With the backs popping off, it should be noted that S5 and below have backs that are removable by design, so it demonstrates nothing except that you can remove the back.
Yes, i used to have a samsung galaxy mini, and i think they have similar plastic-like screens. I only got mine cracked when it was already dead and i exploded it with illegal fireworks... (Video on my channel)
+Kebab4Ever I'm not just saying coz I have an S3 but personally I think the S3 is the best ciz I've had it for 2 nearly 3 years and my older brother had it for longer before he passed it on to me. it is good looking and is in good condition with only a few scratches,so appaet from the power button (which is frequent is the S3) is in amazing condition,looks good and works okay. my opinion: )
Can't believe the s3 did so bad I had one for ages dropped it exactly like his iPhone 6 side drop (perfect front) and the screen cracked not as bad crack as the one in the video but it diddnt die
The surface he dropped the phones on is the worst. it's very uneven and rough. if you drop your phone on a hard flat surface like wood floors or ceramics, it won't shatter like those.
The Galaxy S2 reminds me of the Note 3. But the S2 you used there is a different variant, I can tell from the camera and the use of an ACTUAL home button. The common variant had 4 soft-key buttons.
van Dick the phone works but the screen does not because last time I drop my Droid Charge the inside broke but the phone still works so its more better to buy the new screen
Android rules. I have gorilla glass 2 on my phone. Dropped and threw at half force at a wall and its still works with barely any dints No scratches on screen.

I still like it...
Cool story bro
It's a poem mate.

What's so funny about brain fart? Do you not know what that is? You have to be a kid to laugh at something like that
Who said anyone was laughing?
I was talking to hyper. He has laughing emojis
Always buy a case for your phone.
The message for this video and screen protectors. He dropped them brutally in this video.
***** yet, the S6 the "most fragile phone in existence" was the most durable in the video. Interesting.
Use a Lifeproof case
I have an s6 and I carry it with no case just don't be careless with your phones and you don't need a case.
Now i know because i JUST SMASHED MY S2 YESTERDAY and 1 half of the screen is shatterd "/\"

It was S but when there came out the 2 it was called the first
Soupcan you know, the first world war was not called "first" until the second happened. ;)
But
My S5 fell like a thousand Times
and it only has some edge scratches
Yup. That's a completely realistic number.
madison shook Do you really think I'll remember the real number -_-
Nevermind, screen is cracked now..
XD
Lol
same
The thing is, who the fuck drops their phone from that distance?
Vady Yes I agree, for me a good drop test must be from the waist, not the shoulder
TheSergentRyan If u take a selfie and your cell phone falls than its from the shoulder
marcikque thats side drop
my phone fell out of my window in the garden. Around 3 m and nothing is damaged. Guess I'm lucky.
Janiek Florij he drops it on asphalt, you drop it on dirt, its a huge difference, plus i think the phone landed on the side
When you were about to drop test the S2 this is what happened 3,2 then an add came
The S2 is the best device Samsung has ever made...typing this on my S2 right now haha.
Lmao
I have note 4 but yeah I loved my S2. The feeling of the back the siz3. Damn I miss it.
Lol
I have the s3 writing on it too
ricardo kim I have a s3 mini :)

8:53 The screen tried to pop off

I think the reason why S1 and S2 survived better is because their frame is less rigid. Energy from the drop can go through the phone and releases at the back panel, which is popping off.
Dropping the S4 on its top left corner kills the screen. In my "droptest", at least.
That's because the the screen power lines are right there
You're not fair

Andre Phillip Santos "Alll hell breaks loose". literally
If you dropped a Nokia Phone the Ground would shake and leave a crater where you dropped it.

It seems like my S3 is indestructible, I chucked mine out of a window a few times and it didn't crack
ikr..still got mine after many incidents :))
Probably it lands on its back or side.

I had a the S2 and it was very durable.
Watching techrax dropping it made me uncomfortable.
The original Galaxy wasn't even shattered. You exaggerate way too much.
I think the galaxy s3 has the most beautiful and unique disign, but thats just my opinion
I think it looked the most UGLY with those over curved corners
Vishal Asrith i think its cool and feels nice in your hands
I agree, I like the S3'S design with the rounded motorola-like corners
Amazing Nails2021 i like the iphones disign to, but just in the galaxy S category, the s3 looks the most amazing :)

Just the way he says "of course" when he pull up the Samsung Galaxy S4😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's like he seen the S4 60 Billion times 😂🤣
I see my S4 everyday!
As he was dropping the S3, halfway through the drop an ad started playing. Talk about suspense lolll.

The Galaxy S2 reminds me of the Note 3.
But the S2 you used there is a different variant, I can tell from the camera and the use of an ACTUAL home button. The common variant had 4 soft-key buttons.
There were Three Variants
Epic 4g Touch
The Original SGH(large home button)
The skyrocket
All branded as Galaxy S 2's
4 soft keys was the TMobile Skyrocket variant. The one he used is the original variant.
Some of my classmates at school had an S2. I've only seen them with the "T-Mobile Skyrocket" variant.
+Analisse Albino there not soft buttons. capacitive buttons
