Isn't that the exploding one?
Nope, the S7 is the main competitor of iPhone 7 but the Note 7 had the battery issues. To be honest, Note 7 is not even their main product.
Got a tip for us?

I can't afford an iPhone just to demolish it, either. But that's no reason for either me or you to get salty at those who can. Frankly, the ones that purchase iPhones to destroy them in order to make video content are actually making money FROM their videos. They're content creators. Don't fault them for it. If they can afford it, it's probably because they've worked hard to get to that point. You can do it, too.

Me too!! Then I wasn't quick enough to receive the free toolkit they were giving away on their website (they put a coupon code on the video). Darn!
I think some of these line-counting idiots should realize there are more Apple stores in the metropolitan area now. Now there is an Apple store in Williamsburg, Brooklyn so, those people in outer boroughs don't have to come into Manhattan if they choose not to. Maybe customers are simply going to other Manhattan stores instead of the 5th Ave. store. It would probably be more comfortable to go to the Grand Central Terminal Apple store since it's indoors.
On another note. Does anybody else think the aussie "testing" the phone in the ocean as cute? Living at the beach I don't think I will ever get sick of blonde surfer girls
I just had a look at the iFixit live stream and the iPhone in the fish tank is still going strong at 2 hours and 40 minutes. Thats just crazy. (I really want the iFixit live stream to be real and not a massive click bait troll attempt)
It will be nice to finally be able to go to the beach without worrying about my phone so much. Water resistance probably means it'll also keep sand out, and though I'm still going to be careful with sand because it may scratch the screen, at least I don't have to treat my phone like some sacred hallowed object while at the beach, and can take more pictures from out in the water without being nervous about ruining my phone.
I think that's totally cool and fun!

We all know it will blend. Has any device that he's attempted *not* blended? Sharp metal blades vs. metal, plastic and glass... good marketing, but it's getting old.

Did you rinse it right away? You can do that with the 7.
Another person not understanding the difference between waterproof and water resistant. There is no way Apple will replace phones that have been submerged.
[doublepost=1474053191][/doublepost]I'd like to see a salt water test. Then see if it works after a week or so.

Didn't you just contradict yourself in THE SAME SENTENCE? I wouldn't call a half hour under a meter of water "quick, accidental submersion"!
That guy unboxed the 7. Removed shrink wrap and protective plastic like undressing a lover before going full Marquis de Sade on it.
Couldn't watch
Well it definitely doesn't survive the Hydraulic Press Channel's test.
I'm just glad these videos have white iPhone models rather than the scarcer black varieties! God forbid someone do torture tests (other than scratching perhaps) on jet black models during the first couple weeks. XD
