**Testing the Durability of iPhones**

The test begins with a first-generation iPhone (iPhone 1st gen), which is dropped from a height of three feet. The phone "definitely probably broken and I guess knots okay" suggests that it may not survive the fall, but to everyone's surprise, it does.

Next up is the iPhone 8, which also suffers from a similar fate. Despite being dropped from the same height as the first-generation iPhone, it fails to withstand the impact. The iPhone 8 "definitely probably broken and I guess knots" suggests that it may not be as durable as expected.

The iPhone 10 series, however, shows great promise in terms of durability. When dropped from a height of three feet, both phones suffer minor damage but continue to function. This suggests that the iPhone 10 series has a significant advantage when it comes to durability.

But the real test begins with the iPhone 10 R, which is dropped from an even greater height of eight feet. The phone "head to the ladder okay somehow the iPhone 10 R has held up through all of this abuse and droppings" suggests that it has defied expectations and continues to function despite the impact. A closer inspection reveals minor scuffs on the bottom, but the aluminum casing holds up surprisingly well.

The iPhone 8 is then subjected to a similar test, with devastating results. When dropped from an eight-foot height, the phone "head to the ladder okay somehow the iPhone 8 has held up through all of this abuse and droppings" suggests that it has not fared as well as its predecessor. A closer inspection reveals significant damage, including a spider webbing effect on the screen.

**The Breaking Point**

But how does the iPhone 10 R hold up to even more extreme tests? The answer comes when the phone is dropped from an unprecedented height of nine feet. The "ladder" is then used to test whether the phone can survive such a great fall, and the results are astonishing. Despite spinning wildly, the phone lands on its face with a loud "blood give them blood here we go in three two one" – indicating that it has not broken.

However, when the camera is pressed against the phone's screen, spider webbing appears, indicating significant damage. The screen is now unusable, but to everyone's surprise, the phone continues to function, albeit with a frozen state and non-responsive controls.

**The Verdict**

After subjecting both the iPhone 8 and the iPhone 10 R to extreme tests, it becomes clear that the iPhone 10 R has emerged as the most durable model. Despite suffering minor scuffs on the bottom, the phone continues to function despite the impact. In contrast, the iPhone 8 fails to survive even a relatively short fall from eight feet.

The iPhone 10 series appears to have a significant advantage when it comes to durability, with some models holding up remarkably well against extreme impacts. However, the exact level of protection provided by each model is still unclear, and further testing may be required to confirm these findings.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys it's the big day the iPhone 10 are is out it's the mid-tier phone let's see how breakable it is so this is an aluminum and glass combination Apple didn't make it very clear what kind of glass this is but I'm assuming it's the same one as the iPhone a-10s series and I'm just gonna be comparing it to the iPhone 8 as it is directly replacing that phone eight an A+ Series as a placeholder honestly it's a very chunky phone this thing feels durable to me and I'm thinking it'll do pretty good so it does have an aluminum 7000 series border which does absorb shock pretty well and has extra bezel on the edges don't know how that'll affect to the break ability in the fact that it's an LCD but let's go ahead and test it out as is tradition so more entertainment than anything of course he's a case use a screen protector but as always it just like to do this kind of stuff anyways let's go ahead and start so with the iPhone 8 we're gonna be doing waist height head Heights and then go a little bit further if they're still alive as usual so let's have some malevolent fun and introduce these to the ground here we go waist height on the side iPhone 8 series 1 2 3 that's and the iPhone 10 are this thing is quite heavy so there's a lot of mass when it reaches the floor so clean looking this is the yellow matches my caution tape over here nicely there we go 3 2 1 yeah pretty average Falls still find nothing to report here so let's go to the back this is where you know it's really gonna be a parent how durable this glass is so from waist height to the iPhone eight series one two three that was pretty bad let's check on it oh it's good alright still hanging in there and its successor the iPhone 10 R so one two three okay that did not sound very good oh okay so the lens the lens protrudes I think more yeah definitely more than the iPhone eight series so I feel like that has a greater chance of breaking is this the first thing that hits the ground otherwise aluminum is holding up pretty well but not as durable as a stainless steel okay otherwise it's pretty good just keep going facedown waist height it'd be a shame if it broke from this height but here we go three two one okay it's so painful I mean I've been doing this for years and every single time trust me it gets me literally doing it as tradition at this point even though I know everyone just cases and all that but still there we go three two one all right can see that has survived nice little flip there screen is fine so LC do you believe it or not is more durable when it comes to shock compared to OLED there are times when people just drop in OLED display and it's not apparent at first but later they'll get some lines organic LED definitely is more fragile than LCD but it's held up pretty well well they're still in good shape let's step it up a notch to head height here on the side in three two one okay that was bad but still has survived surprised okay same thing for this one three two one perfect edge shot okay so no deformations yeah it's just some dents here but still holding up very well this feels like a very tough phone just something about it maybe it's how thick it is how hefty it feels but feel solid okay I think this is where we're gonna start seeing some backs cracking so okay iPhone hate first one two three definitely probably broken and I guess knots okay Wow that can take a beating and keep going here we go can I believe the world's most durable glass I don't know for sure they talked about the 10s but let's see if this can withstand the same fall in three two one ouch oh my gosh how that's amazing somehow both are still surviving still working at this point okay still keep going but wow there's some durability magic going into these okay let's keep going actually kind of amazed at how great of shape its stilling facedown three two one okay yeah there we go that did it and I just saw the last life go out of this phone the screen just dimmed still working oh yeah look at that well that's completely unusable but the phone is still working vibration what are still working so that's what it took that's our benchmark here and the iPhone 10 are from the same distance three two one Wow oh my gosh same distance you guys saw it same fall has survived where the iPhone eight has not so you know at this point without doing anything more extreme I can say the iPhone 10 R is ridiculously durable nothing has broke from head height falls that's six drops in total and you know to have some scuffs on the bottom but the aluminum is holding up very well it's very tough I feel like this is even more durable than the 10s just because the aluminum absorbs the shock a little bit more the stainless steel doesn't deform the same way but so I'm very impressed okay at this point let's see if we can break it so at this point we're gonna do the 10-foot drop or eight foots as close as we can to that just because we haven't broken it yet and this one's down for the cowbell let's see what it takes to break the back anyways alright head to the ladder okay somehow the iPhone 10 R has held up through all of this abuse and droppings but eight nine feet let's see see how it does here we go three two one Wow one violent droppings lots of spins and yet somehow still unbroken huh you know this corner definitely took a beating metals all dented up scuffed but still the yellow shines looks really nice despite all of that damage so a well done Apple very well done now now is when we're gonna start seeing some broken glass for sure like there's no way around this here we go some blood give them blood here we go in three two one yeah that did it finally one no no way that's still good but I finally did in the back and what a spectacular sight spider webbing that's so dense it's gonna affect your Flash module but somehow the sapphire lens cover is not broken it's still smooth glass up here over here it's chipping definitely gonna cut yourself you're not careful iPhone tax still good so you know what can I say it's durable up until the point until it's not all it takes is that one fall that one angle that you didn't expect sometimes people tell me they literally drop it right outside their car like a foot above the ground and it breaks so you never really know but I got pretty lucky with this one and let's see if the iPhone eight breaks at the same height as well iPhone eight and three two one one okay fronts got more destroyed of seeing the internals there yeah and that did it for this one as well there's a beautiful spider webbing it's like an artwork so both from a nine-foot fall do break well let's see the Front's I guarantee this will break but if it doesn't what do I do there we go in three two one one from what I can see that oh it did break for a moment there I thought it hadn't okay shock was just too much and sois the screen is actually not responding dude-- not only is the screen not responding the actual phone has completely frozen like the vibration motors and working the volume adjustment isn't working the power button isn't working that's a first I have shocked this phone into completely freezing and there is that cool so that's what it took you know for both of these to break the iPhones head are definitely is the most durable here I would go so far as to say that this is more durable than the iPhone 10s alright guys thanks for watching stay tuned for the next one Oh whoa look at that it's respring and it works again okay cool first time ever seeing something like that so it's still working despite it all you can continue to use it while cutting yourself slowly on the shards but alright guys peacehey guys it's the big day the iPhone 10 are is out it's the mid-tier phone let's see how breakable it is so this is an aluminum and glass combination Apple didn't make it very clear what kind of glass this is but I'm assuming
