After proving that the Galaxy S6 edge not bends under normal conditions of use, when under the pressure of a person, Samsung has released a second video on the drop test made in its laboratories. The Galaxy S6 remains intact if dropped from a decent height. Same positive result for his twin with curved display.

The most popular videos on YouTube are those that show the drop test for the new smartphone, although in some cases can define real “torture” that no device undergoes throughout their lives. Samsung has seen these tests and is proud of the fact that her jewelry survived to many of them. When the manufacturer presented the Galaxy S6, many people immediately thought that the use of glass for the back cover would make the most delicate devices. The video, however, shows that the two smartphones can withstand falls from a height-chest.

The test for the Galaxy S6 provides a fall on the back, while the Galaxy S6 edge is dropped from the side. In both cases, the smartphone will not be damaged and continues to operate normally. This result was achieved thanks to the Gorilla Glass 4 , one of the toughest glass commercially available. The individual components have been designed to share the shock of the impact, reducing the probability of breakage. In addition, the frame Aluminium 6013 protects the display, as it hits the surface of the glass first.

Of course, the new devices are not indestructible, but must apply a force equal to that which would cause the breakage of the dial of a clock or the windshield of a car . Some YouTube users believe that the test of Samsung is incomplete, because you should check the resistance to fall on other surfaces, such as concrete. Asphalt, Samsung clearly wins the comparison with Apple.
