iPhone 7 bests iPhone 6s in durability drop test, survives ten foot face-down drop

<p>Apple appears to have improved the durability of the iPhone 7 compared to the iPhone 6s, as highlighted by a new drop test video by EverythingApplePro (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJQnbaNGCj0). The iPhone 7 does very well in this specific test, sustaining ten foot face-down and side drops without cracking the screen. In contrast, the iPhone 6s was completely shattered at drops of five-feet. The iPhone 7’s rear sapphire cover glass (the camera bump) was damaged but the person could still take photos.</p>
<p>Apple makes no claims about drop or shatter performance of course; the waterproofness of the iPhone 7 (https://9to5mac.com/2016/09/16/iphone-7-waterproof-tests-submerged-in-water-hot-coffee-and-more-comes-out-unscathed/) has already been shown to be of a high-standard.</p>
