Galaxy S III vs iPhone 4S in drop test competition





The Android Authority have tried to pit an iPhone 4S and a Galaxy S III against each other to see which will reign victorious in the smartphone versus concrete competition. This is probably a good point to mention that it is probably not a good idea to mimic the tests shown in the video and your device is perfectly fine without the intervention of a solid external floor.


All owners of mobile devices have experienced that horrible moment after dropping their phone and seeing whether any damage has occurred to it, and in my experience it all depends on how the phone actually falls and at what orientation it lands. The test is trying to be as scientific as possible by submitting the two most popular smartphones on the current market to a series of falls, all from the same height and all dropped at the same three angles, putting gravity and manufacturer build quality do the test.

Samsung Galaxy S III is the UK’s most popular smartphone at the moment, pinning the white iPhone 4S back into second place after only four weeks on top spot. With the Galaxy S III only being released this week, this test may be of particular interest to those who are yet to experience a fall with their shiny new device. As the video shows, neither phone manages to escape unscathed with the Galaxy S III literally falling apart as it hits the concrete and the 4S suffering from massive front and rear glass failure.
