You know whatβs going to happen here donβt you? Two very expensive phones are going to get completely ruined just to show us how breakable they are. The footage below has been filmed by a mobile insurance company called Protect Your Bubble and it shows just what happens when you drop your handset onto the floor or in water.
I particularly like the test where they drop them both off the top of a 30 foot-high roof. I canβt tell you the amount of times Iβve done that
They do tell me that 65% of damage claims are for a phone being dropped.
So, letβs test the resilience of the iPhone 5 and Galaxy S4 shall we? Look away if youβre of a nervous disposition
So, weβve learned a) dropping your phone from the top of a building will kill it (even the iphone 5), b) submerging your phone (dunk? Ha!) in a fish tank wonβt help matters either. Yes, very informative. Not. ;-P
