A test to scrape iPhone X and bend it drops out appeared, in a drop test the surprising part became inoperable

YouTube videos and other harsh tests such as "Scratch" "Falling" "Aruba" etc, which can be said as a celebration of the time when the new iPhone was released, began to be uploaded one after the other. From the result, the robustness that can be said as surprising as iPhone X is gradually becoming apparent, but on the other hand it is also clarified that the function which can be said to be necessary for iPhone X has been broken.

YouTube channelJerryRigEverythingSo, as usual, it carries out scratches on the screen of iPhone, resistance to writer's fire, and "Bend test" trying to fold the terminal by hand.

First, paste the tape on the screen and write the numbers from 2 to 9. This number isMohs hardnessIt shows up.


Then, using a needle with a different hardness at the tip, check which hardness the screen gets scratched.


It is frustrating with a needle like this. I think that it is getting cold back when I think that I have damaged the iPhone X which is getting as much as tens of thousands of yen I got it.


As a result, the screen of iPhone X turned out to be scratched from hardness 6. It has the same durability as a general smartphone.


With this hardness, scratching with keys ......


There are no scratches on about rubbing with coins. Although it seems unnecessary to worry about scratches even if put in the pocket, attention is necessary because it will lose to fragments such as hard stones and ceramics.


Even the blade of the cutter knife never scratched.


However, when trying to trim the mesh cover of the built-in microphone in a partially recessed part with a cutter ......


The paint on the surface or the coating has peeled off.


iPhone X is also covered on the back with glass. When rubbing with the same Mohs hardness needle as the display ......


Again, scratches began to stick with hardness 6.


Although scratch resistant glass is used, there is no glass that can not be broken. Therefore, JerryRigEverything recommends sticking a sticker etc. to protect the back side.


Subsequently, the resin part between the body and the glass with a cutter knife is gorigori. Resin can not beat the blade of the cutter but it will be scraped off, but this is inconceivable. On the contrary, this softness becomes a cushion, it seems to work to ease the shock such as falling.


Although the cover of the sapphire glass is attached to the camera part, it seems that the material of the hardness is used for the part of the flash. Therefore, the cutter knife easily scratches it.



Although the body frame using stainless steel is sturdy itself, it rubs with a cutter knife and as expected it will have a linear scratch.


On iPhone X, it seems that the volume button is also made of stainless steel. Therefore, it seems that big scratches do not stick with scraping a little with a cutter.


Scratching hard, I got scratches like this.


Resin parts sandwiched between the display and the frame can not beat the cutter. However, as mentioned above, it seems that this functions as a kind of cushion, leading to surprisingly durable.


Next, I looked around with a lighter's fire for about 10 seconds ......


A part of the screen has discolored a little, but it will not discolor to black like the liquid crystal panel. The OLED panel of iPhone X seems to be designed to be resistant to heat.


However, although it did not discolor, the surface fingerprint repellent and oil repellent coating changed due to heat.


And finally, bend the iPhone X with the power of your finger into the bend test. I put my thumb on the screen, even if I put "powerful" power, bending, there seemed to be no appearance of a part of the glass panel floating up. Although it is heavy, it seems that iPhone X's bending resistance is high by using a high-strength stainless steel frame.


On the other hand, the iPhone X dropped the testEverything ApplePro. "I do not really want to do it ..." while showing a state that hesitancy can not be hidden, while falling tests of iPhone X and iPhone 8 are included in the movie.

First, check the strength by dropping the terminal from about 1 meter high.


When I saw each terminal dropped in the front, back, sideways, neither was a noticeable scratch on the glass panel or frame.


Next, I tested the fall from the height of the face that is expected to occur much. Then, when dropping the iPhone 8 from the back ... ...


When thinking that it dropped with the sound "bishido", the glass on the back gloriously cracked in the backyard. In this case, if AppleCare + is not subscribed, repair costs of 38,800 yen will be charged. Even if it enters AppleCare +, it costs 11, 000 yen, so it seems to be said that it is a clever choice to take measures with a strange cane.


One iPhone X also tested from the front, the back, the side three directions.


Taking "iPhone X" saying "Please, Please ... ..." ... ...


IPhone X (left) is perfectly intact. iPhone 8 (right), too, the display side is intact.


However, the result of the back split the light and dark. iPhone X was in a state that it could be said to be intact, but iPhone 8 has become irksome irks.


It was where I thought "iPhone X invincible", but in reality it turned out that there was damage inside. I tried to use Face ID after it dropped, but the authentication was stopped on the way. It seems that the sensor of the TrueDepth system has been damaged due to repeated shocks of falling.


In the above test, it was iPhone X which showed excellent results, but in the test carried out by CNET it was said that the back cracked in the back for the first time it dropped from the height of 3 feet (about 90 cm). If this happens, it costs 60,800 yen for AppleCare + not joining, and 11,800 yen for subscription, so it is better to take measures as well Not even.
