Introduction
In today’s world of technology, smartphones have become an essential part of our lives. With new models and updates constantly being released, it can be difficult to keep up with the latest trends. But before we move on to the new iPhone models, what about the good old iPhone 5S? In this episode of Battle Damage, we say farewell to the iPhone 5S by putting it through a series of tests to see just how durable it is.
Drop Testing
The first test involves dropping the iPhone 5S from varying heights to see how many drops it can withstand. The team’s hand-built 360-degree slo-mo camera captures every moment of the test. The first drop is a normal height, and the phone survives with only a small dent on the side. The second drop is from a higher height, and again the phone survives with only a little damage in the corner. The final test is the most extreme, and the iPhone 5S passes with flying colors.
Extreme Limit Test
The next test is the extreme limit test, where the team puts the iPhone 5S to the ultimate test of its durability. The team picks up the heaviest and most unwieldy object they have ever used in their tests – a 55-pound safe. They drop the safe on the iPhone from a height, and to their surprise, the iPhone 5S comes out relatively unscathed. Although there is iPhone dust everywhere, the screen is untouched, and the battery and SIM card are still intact.
iPhone vs. Safe Test
In addition to discovering the iPhone’s strength and durability, the team also learns what the iPhone can do to an object as heavy as a safe. The safe shows visible damage from the impact, and the team is amazed by the power of the iPhone.
Conclusion
While it’s tempting to upgrade our smartphones as soon as the newest models become available, it’s worth appreciating the durability and strength of older models like the iPhone 5S. The team at Battle Damage put the phone through its paces and discovered just how tough it can be. It’s reassuring to know that such a small device can withstand extreme tests and survive intact.
