Galaxy S10 + and iPhone XS Max, which is more durable?

Recently, YouTube EverythingApplePro has performed a series of tests on two newly released Galaxy S10 + and iPhone XS Max to compare the durability of these two devices when dropping. Previously, both of these devices had experienced a lot of hardness tests, but they were all unique challenges, this was the first time they had joined the same test.

This time, Galaxy S10 + and iPhone XS Max had the opportunity to compare durability when dropping at different heights.

The first challenge is dropping two machines in an upright position at the same height as the pants pocket. As a result, the iPhone XS Max is equipped with a high-quality stainless steel frame so it is virtually unharmed, while the Galaxy S10 + has a small crack.

In the first challenge, Galaxy S10 + appeared a slight crack (left photo) and iPhone XS Max (right) had no problems.

When switching to drop the two machines in the posture face down, iPhone XS Max continues to maintain its 'style' and Galaxy S10 + appears a few small cracks in the corner of the screen.

The cause of this situation is because iPhone XS Max is equipped with the most durable glass on the market by Apple and still has a protective edge. Meanwhile, the edge of the Galaxy S10 + is the weakest and most easily affected by external forces because it has a curved screen that spills over to the sides.

The next challenge was to drop two machines from the height of the head. For the first time, two machines were released in the direction of the device, on the iPhone XS Max the first crack appeared on the side of the machine, the cracks also appeared more on the Galaxy S10 +.

In the next drop, the back of the two machines will land first. This time there were no more serious cracks on both machines.

In the third test, two machines were dropped face-down from the top level. In this challenge, both the Galaxy S10 + and iPhone XS Max have big problems. The Galaxy S10 + has many cracks, ink runs and can't recognize fingerprints. iPhone XS Max does not fall into a bad situation like its rivals, despite having some cracks in the corner of the screen, Face ID can still be identified.

Both smartphones continue to be dropped from the height of the head but this time the direction of the back is down. As a result, the rear glass of both machines was broken, the fingerprint sensor under the screen was unrecognizable.

In the end, both machines were dropped from the height of the ceiling (about 3m). Both larger Galaxy S10 + and iPhone XS Max appear larger cracks.

In terms of damage levels and good performance features, iPhone XS Max defeated Galaxy S10 + in the face of this drop-down glove.
