All drop-tests should be done this way: iPhone 6s vs Samsung Galaxy S7 to the death (Video)

Here you go, Huawei testing tumble tests. Are you seriously saying that standards like 60068 are created then NOT USED by the industry? Seriously? Are you going to claim Apple (whose iPhone came in second in your test - bested by HTC) doesn't do testing to published standards, does less testing than Huawei or Nokia? Or Samsung at 1:45?

From your link on Huawei's testing:

The Drop Test rig from your Nokia Link

I see their thumbing test reference, and also about how the phones had to be working at the end of the tests, but these are not But nothing about your 500 iterations you claimed. The article does say that "the odd scratch or two is OK," but this seems a bit over the top to be considered "the odd scratch or two" being OK.

These are clamshell phones that should be more forgiving of being tumbled than glass faced modern slab smartphones would be.

In your YouTube video link on Nokia's testing look at 2:30 in to that and you will see a similar drop test rig. Both of them the same as the one's I've been showing you and very similar to the one used in the YouTube in the original article on this thread.

Your Samsung link goes to a 22 second YouTube of a tumble tester running a set of headphones, so I have no idea what you think you're proving with that one.

I think the person who cannot admit he's wrong here is YOU. You've repeatedly presented your own proof that YOU are wrong. . . providing proof of my contention that the video on this thread is using an appropriate ENVIRONMENTAL, real world testing rig for what is being tested to show what is intended. Your complaint is invalid.

So you enjoy your holiday weekend.

I wonder if they have one with a real edged katana swinging through a smartphone. . . now that would be interesting.
