Apple’s iPhone 6 has caused a craze around the world. The most hyped consumer product throughout the year is worshiped by millions of fans. The product gets better every year, with loads of upgrades, features and aesthetics.
However, every new product on the market is tested by analysts who review the phone to their limits. Some go beyond the extent of testing it to the extreme. These are the guys who give the world their views and the truths of the product.

PhoneBuff is such an analyst who takes the tests to the extreme. In the video below, he has done a drop test on the two one-day-old iPhone 6’s. He drops the iPhone 6 smartphones from a regular height of around four feet, straight to the concrete below. The test is done thrice—once to drop it flat on the back, second to drop it on its sides, and third to drop it flat on its face.
The result is shocking—the iPhone 6 screens do not survive beyond the first test. The screens were highly damaged and almost popped out of the chassis.
So if you are a person with butter fingers, make sure you either don’t purchase an iPhone 6 or get your iPhone a protective bumper.
