A movie showing the durability by attacking the "Galaxy S8" with burning & cutting tools is on sale

"Galaxy Note 7" has been explosion one after another, production and sales stoppedAlthough it is, how much durability is expected for the Galaxy S8? That is why people who actually acquired the Galaxy S8 before launching galaxy S8 with a knife scratching and rubbing with fire and checking their durability have been released.

Galaxy S8 Durability Test - Scratch, Burn, and BEND tested - YouTube

Brand new Galaxy S8 taken out of the box.

When you peel off the protective sheet, a casing without scratches will appear. The feeling I had was "cold and hard".

Firstly I will scrape the surface with Deluxe Mohs pick. It seems that it got scratched with level 3 for Galaxy S7 Active and level 6 pick for Galaxy S7 Edge. Also, in the case of sapphire glass it means that levels 8 to 9 can not be scratched.

After going from level 2 to level 9, sequentially scratching the surface ... ...

The Galaxy S8 adopting gorilla glass seems to have scratched for the first time at level 6. This means that keys or coins that are in your pocket will not hurt.

There is no home button on the surface of Galaxy S8 ....

There is a speaker at the top. The part of the speaker is dented, and it is characterized by having a mesh shape.

For example, Galaxy S 7 has no dent ... ...

LG G6 also seems to be integrated with the screen part.

If there is a dent in the part of the speaker, there is a possibility that dust and dust will accumulate and it can not be said that it is necessarily good in design, so it is "an interesting choice". However, since the mesh is made of metal, it seems that it will not be destroyed even if it scratches off with a blade of a cutter to remove accumulated dust.

In addition, the size of the speaker is about half compared with Galaxy S7 Edge.

Since the sensors and cameras at the front are covered with gorilla glass, scratches will not stick at all even if rubbing the surface with the blade of the cutter.

I will look at the back.

Samsung's logo is printed on the bottom part of the case, not on the surface, so it will not disappear even if you cut it with a blade of the cutter.

Camera, sensor, flash etc. on the rear are also unscathed as well. JerryRigEverything, who produced the movie, said he saw the flash for the first time being covered with gorilla glass. It is said that it is normally covered with a plastic cover.

Although the lens part of the camera is also scraped off with the kyukyu, it is not scratched because it is covered with gorilla glass.

The periphery of the lens is covered with metal, so it got scratched here. Because the metal is raised a little, it is supposed to protect the camera lens when the case without Galaxy S8 falls.

The part which fingerprint authentication on the side of the camera is easily scratched.

However, it seems that there was no problem with authentication even if it got scratched.

Continue to the heat resistance test. Galaxy S8 uses Super AMOLED for display. When JerryRigEverything wears the Galaxy S7 which adopts the AMOLED display with a writer,The screen partially discolored in 10 secondsI heard that he never recovered ... ...

In the Galaxy S 8, a part of the display turns white and discolored at the point where it struck for 30 seconds.

However, after a while the discoloration disappeared. There is no problem in use at all.

Furthermore, when I tried to cover another place, it was said that no white discoloration occurred even after 30 seconds.

Swiping the screen or launching the application has no problem at all.

But at the third burn ... ...

It turns white again.

This discoloration did not disappear even if time passed or rubbed.

In addition, since the frame part on the side surface of the main body is metal, scratches will be attached if you cut it with the blade of the cutter.
