iPhone 14/Plus Where are the drop tests??

[philipandrews]

Does anyone find it odd that there are hardly any drop test videos out?? Usually we have a bunch out today but I haven’t seen one yet. What are they hiding???

Nothing.

There is no reason to think that this iPhone is going to be any less durable than any of the previous ones.

I haven’t seen any drop test in a few years.
Sooner or later I’ll drop it. That will be the test.

The novelty and need for drop tests has lessened the more durable the iPhone has become.

I dropped my iPhone 12 without a case from about 4ft off the ground a few weeks ago. A direct hit on it's corner on tile. And all that happened was it left a pretty good scruff mark - no screen or back shattering.

My XS Max saw it's glass back shatter from a drop about 2 ft off the ground onto it's back and the whole back glass was shattered instantly.

Do we not all know at this point what's going to happen? If you drop your case-less phone on concrete, might break, might not. That's it. Run the risk if you want to. Who cares.

They’re too busy testing out crash detection in real world testing with their car in a ditch somewhere
