Samsung Galaxy Alpha Drop Test – Unbreakable Phone?
Hey guys tech crack serious in this video we're gonna be dropped testing the Samsung Galaxy alpha now why this phone this is kind of a mid-range spec phone it's got a slightly worse camera battery life display than the s5 but it does have one thing that really sets it apart
From most of the other phones it's got Gorilla Glass 4 and I believe it's the first phone that has this type of glass Corning says that it's supposed to survive 80% of all drops drop from 1 meter so which is roughly over 3 feet
We're going to be doing this from 5 feet both the sight and the deadly drew front-facing drop test so according to that you know it should have about a 45 percent of you know survival or chance of survival so I don't think this phone
Is going to you know survive but it's going to be very interesting to see just how well it stands since its you know it's got such a powerful screen I mean just in general how strong is Gorilla Glass 4 you know so without any further
Ado guys let's go straight into this video and we'll see what happens alright guys so I have the Galaxy alpha here in my hands in flawless condition we're going to be doing the side drop tests first
So let's just go ahead and do this make sure it's just the right height probably a little bit higher because I'm really really pushing this and so side drop in 3 2 1 ok guys let's take a look at what
Happened to this phone with the side drop test so I'm going to go ahead and take this check it out so cracked no cracked screen it kind of fell in an angle so not necessarily on a corner or anything but you could see if you've
Been a few of the scratches and kind of Nick's on that aluminum um or that bezel that's side body looking at the top nothing there a whole bunch of the of those scratches on the bottom too so just all these
Scratches you could see on that entire frame not so much on the right side but completely flawless screen so working perfectly fine see right there apps everything works perfectly fine let's go
Into the front-facing drop test okay guys so this is it the front-facing drop test I have the phone here it still got the scratches as you can see right there from that side drop test but it did survive and it still works let's go into
The front-facing drop test so I'm going to try and angle this as best as possible here three two one perfect okay guys so you heard that from facing splat let's take a look at what happened for the first time did it
Survive or did it not it did not survive look at that it still did surprisingly well but you could see the cracks um on that front or that top area let me shut that off see you there you guys can see a better look of all those cracks in
That huge hairline crack across the entire display back cover almost um actually see you could see it almost popped off but I it was still intact and as far as those sides not too much of a difference it was kind of how it was
Before scratches didn't really increase um as far as the bottom in the corners but it's just mainly that um that display so you can see it's now fully cracked still working though hey that's the bright
Side still works perfectly fine so it did survive technically but just the glass did shatter and that's you know I mean Gorilla Glass 4 it's just not unbreakable maybe sapphire display will be but we will see in the future guys
That's it for the Samsung Galaxy alpha drop test thank you guys for watching and as always peace out
