Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra drop test video is now released by Youtuber PBKreviews. The all-new Samsung phone comes with the protection offered by its new flat design, titanium frame, Gorilla Glass Armor on the front and Gorilla Glass on the back.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra dropped
YouTuber PBKreviews dropped the Galaxy S24 Ultra from waist height. In the first fall itself, the phone’s screen gets a minor crack in the top right corner.
In the next fall, the top left corner also gets slightly scraped and in the subsequent falls too, the titanium frame gets scraped at various places. However, the Gorilla Glass Armor in use is said to be 3x better at drop resistance and 4x better at scratch resistance than its competitors.
To Samsung’s merit, the display functions fine even after repeated drops and no noticeable damages were on the rear side. The screen also managed to stay scratch-free even after putting and scrubbing sand and gravel on it.
Moreover, the phone mostly landed facing the screen even though the YouTuber tried to drop the phone from different sides.
So, it wasn’t a very methodical test and the results should only be taken accordingly. In comparison, the back glass on the iPhone 15 Pro series shattered in a drop test by EverythingApplePro. The titanium frame showed scratches and the screen also nicked when dropped from waist-height.
