That 14 pros durability is actually pretty insane
Remember that whether a phone breaks or not in these very unscientific drop tests largely comes down to the exact spot where impact occurred, and what type of impact. Even on the same surface, you can have wildly different results even with the same phone. You could have a 14 Pro shatter from 2 feet and then a different one be fine from 6 feet, all depending on how they fall.
@@JordanCS13 though i agree, the differences in the video are too drastic to be just "how they fall"
Mainly due to the shape of the steel edges of the 14, as pointed out in the video. It protects the glass more.
@@JordanCS13 And the first damage obviously effects the outcomes of other drops too. This tests have to be done professionally to get correct results
Not when compared Androids mid rangers 😂
Imagine flying to Australia to drop two $900+ phones
Tax write off plus a vacation
@@bchevonhis bf posted from AUS too, so maybe honeymoon. 😂
And he probably had applecare on those devices.. so they will be replaced for new devices only for $99 no matter how much the damage is and how that happened..
@@boboso7238he got a boyfriend?!? 😮
I expected someone to tackle him and run off with the phone.
A common misconception is that titanium is superior to steel in strength. It is not, it's just lighter at for the same amount of strength because it's less dense. So we shouldn't see a better performance in terms of scuffs and bulks when dropping, but more in over weight.
But if 15 Pro Max weighs less than 14 Pro Max with same amount of strength then it should be able to survive that fall from same level of height, not the other way around. Don’t know why 15 Pro is failing these drop tests.
@@rafdor5131 I do not know the exact material composition of the titanium used by Apple. But it could be a weaker alloy? Not sure, it does sound weird
I prefer more weight than less drop durability. It’s more easy to drop a phone by a mistake rather than a heavier it could be
@@rafdor5131 I watched a dude tear the Iphone 15 and 15 pro max apart, but yes the 15 pro max is a bit concerning (even the regular Iphone 15 is stronger than the pro max)
@@travelwithavinash958 yaaaaaaaaaa
This was so painful to watch, but at the same time very interesting. I was NOT expecting such phenomenal performance from the 14
Agreed especially for an iPhone.
@@jph.j5183 14 Pro is built like a literal tank. The same cannot be said about the 15 Pro
Well, one thing for sure. If you get the 15, better get a decent case. I always get the clear hard 3 piece case. They are slightly thicker, but I believe they saved my phone too many times. Especially when I sat on my phone. The extra width helps. Dropped my phone about 20 times at chest height and my phone works perfect.
@@cdsersd2dhow does the case look? Does it say itskins on the back of it?
@@KennethPointer-kw1ex - No, it says ORIbox....military grade drop protection. My phone looks perfect, but the glass is a little scratched from my keys. I don't treat my phone very good.
The level of commitment of going to Australia to get an earlier release time of the phones to start uploading sooner, so insanely impressive
Genius doing this in Australia too where you get 7 days of AppleCare for free, you can fix that real quick plus you get a sim tray

@@Painfulwhale360 who cares, he’s going to make money from his video plus gets his phones replaced through AppleCare plus got to take a trip to Australia for a “work “. Sounds like a win
@@Jawz247 Not sure if purposely chucking them off stairs onto concrete will be covered under "accidental drops" but I'd love to see him try!
Harder material doesn't really mean its durable. If it's too hard, the force won't escape and will end up cracking
i totally agree
It seems you know more than Apple that claims iPhone 15 is more durable.
@@user-di5kl4lp5e the material is actually more durable, but not the whole phone
@@simoney890 I think the shift of design from sharp edges to slight curved edges might be the reason for 15's inconsistent durability. I think the design was so that the back glass was easier to repair.
@@moistrice7228and cheaper
Dang! The 14 took that extreme abuse like a champ. Very impressive. And the 15's camera separating like that is quite gnarly.
I would have been interested to see how the phones continue to work and take photos as these tests continue. I do think there is a lot of value in these drop tests to continue dropping until major damage.
Yeah he could have been a bit more detailed with his review however I think he wanted to put out the video as quick as possible to be one of the first few on TH-cam to do drop tests as it may help bring in a lot more views than he would doing a in-depth review as bigger creators would steal the spotlight
Quickly*
They were both still working, the internals don't get damaged (until the 15 obviously broke). There's no point testing how the phones work

Not all floor surfaces are as flat as the one u dropped these phones on
I think you single-handedly revived the genre of drop test videos with this one lol
I pre ordered the 15 pro max but man those polished stainless steel edges looks more elegant than the titanium
I agree. In terms of design and premium feel, the 14 was the pinnacle of the iPhone. But who am I to judge Apple.
The titanium now looks like aluminium. No premium look now..also they have given dynamic island in normal 15 and 15 plus. So all same.. apple has done great wrong this year..how to survive on this mistake?
Saw the breakdown of the iPhone 15 and the reason why the back glass is so fragile is because the backplate, unlike the iPhone 14, is fixed to the phone and not the back glass. One small detail but quite a huge difference
Awesome thanks for flying half way around the world . Love the dedication and motivation. 👏 keep it up 👍 best of luck for the future 😊
That is outstanding durability. It’s amazing how far they have come back in the early days screens were crack on the first and second drop lol.
Did you notice over what surface he is dropping off the phone
Currently watching this on my iPhone 14 Pro Max and I can’t believe how durable it actually is compared to the 15 Pro. In my personal opinion I prefer a heavier phone it gives me a sense of added durability. Sick video man!
sameeeee
Same
same except for the watching part lol
O yea I have a 14 pro and after seeing this, along with that one TH-camrs video of him snapping the 15 pro glass just by pressing on it…. I’m definitely not upgrading

I just bought a regular 14 and because of your video in Australia I’m feeling like I made a smart choice. Thanks!
Idk why but the stainless steel looked and felt so much more premium and luxurious, this titanium just looks like the aluminium one.
Na verdade ele foi feito de uma liga de Titanium (mais barato) diferente do aço inoxidável (puro).
As empresas querem fazer propagandas pra vender mais, e não apenas materiais melhores, como esperamos!
Yes. I too agree with you...
That's right.. I agree
The 4 times titanium stronger than stainless steel claim is a joke.
Awesome video! I’ve missed drop test videos and it’s so cool you flew all the way to Australia. Have fun there!
Thanks for the tests. Very few reviewers are left with honesty. You are definitely at the top of those honest reviewers. I won't be buying an iPhone 15 for sure thanks to you too.
I got the regular 15 and I’m so so glad I did not get the pro
@@Vaggiewire??? The normal 15 is the same maybe even worse
@@kuramadvshow can it be same, normal 15 is not titanium. Please check properly
@@kuramadvs no it’s not

Even though they're using the same ceramic shield they had the audacity to say it's the strongest glass of any phone... Funnily enough the Victus 2 held up about as well on the S23 to the iPhone 14 Pro, so I'd be interested to see a side by side comparison to the 15 Pro.
Apple intentionally made the 15 pro easily repairable for a reason you just discovered. 😅
Firstly, props to you my dude. Can’t believe we’re getting a drop test so early when the phone just got released. Secondly, given the fact that the 14 pro is heavier, I really thought it would crack first but wow. I was thinking that the slight curve on the glass might be bad for falls on the glass as my X broke because of that curve but wasn’t expecting it to be that bad. The dark titanium is doing exactly what I thought cause I thought it might be like the black iPhone 5’s aluminium and show the inner colour when it gets damaged. So it looks like stainless steel although it scratches easily takes falls better.
This was really satisfying to watch. I think its the rounded screen-to-edge ratio that makes the 15pro appear to shatter earlier than the 14pro. the aluminum rail and squared off screen-to-edge on the 14pro really protects both the screen and the back. I would not want to believe the screen on the 14 is more durable than what's on the 15pro
The material on the screens are the same, I think the edges on the 15 are the reason for the damage
yeah the whole deal with ceramic shield is just marketing, what really made up most of the drop resistance since the introduction of it on the 12 was the design change to flat edges and the glass sitting fully inside the frame.
Hayır 14 köşesine düşüyor 15 ise ekran üstü
I think it is hilarious how excited this test got you Sam! hahaha. Legend
You have to remember just because the frame is harder that can actually work against you, because if it does deform, it can push in on the screen permanently and cause a crack. Stainless steel is much more flexible while still having good strength, which can actually be a huge asset because it can absorb some of the shock from the impact rather than sending everything into the screen. Fun fact I had two broken screens when iPhones were only in aluminum. Ever since the iPhone X I’ve had a stainless steel phone ever since every year upgrading to the latest model, and I have never had one crack screener back glass. It seems that that titanium may be harder than aluminum but it when it fails it will fail just as badly as aluminum with permanent indention.
May be (stainless steel)it's similar to crumple zone in car crash test..!!
this argument is not convincing because the 15pro is just an aluminum frame + titanium border band, not a titanium frame. what this shows is that this upgrade was not for durability, but for lightweight and design change.
Gladly holding my 14 Pro Max, last gen of recent years with stainless steel
better stick with stainless steel frame if its gonna be like this 💀
Don’t spread misinformation Apple fanboy 🤡
Not Sam reporting on degrading iPhone 14 Pro batteries and now dropping iPhone 15 Pros 😳 You're gonna be on top of Apple's blacklist 🤣
Tim Cook is googling for hitmen.
You should have done this in slo mo so we could see exactly how they hit the cement. If the 15 pro’s camera is heavier, it can affect how it contacts the ground in comparison to the 14 pro.
I had to watch this in two parts because it was causing me to freak out! Watching you purposely trying to see how you could break these phones, or what it would take to see the true durability made me start having a panic attack LOL. I’m the person who before I even order my new phone orders a protective case! I want NO CHANCE of damage to something I’ve paid so much for. You’re a brave man 😂. Thanks for the info though 👍
Lmao. This dude flew to Australia, one of the first regions to get the new iphones, just to be the first person to put out a drop test video. Take my like
I have been waiting for this! Last year when I bought the new Watch Ultra I barely hit it on the edge of the wall and it put a nice gash in side of it, didn't have much confidence in the titanium to holding up after my watch experience. So glad I didn't pre-order as well, can't wait to see more of these types of videos, even though this pretty much was all I needed to make a decision. If you notice after a few of the drops on the 15 you can actually see that frame around the cameras start to show, (Drop #11, 7:27) what's up with that Apple?
Awesome content as always Sam and enjoy Australia while you are there mate. Already looking forward to the iPhone 16 next year!!
Once the glass cracks every drop is going to get significantly worse. The 15 Pro internal frame is aluminum and the Titanium is just an aesthetic outer frame. So, the core structure of the phone is actually aluminum, not titanium. That combined with rounded glass transitioning into the rounded titanium means it has no drop protection compared to the glass being fully enveloped by the stainless steel on the 14 Pro.
Once again, it was a decision made by Apple to make the phone look nicer in promo shots and in the store, but instantly needs to be hidden by a case once you actually buy it. It leaves me befuddled that companies keep making design choices that look nicer without a case, but are so poor that they force you to use a case.
Dude thank you so much for doing this. I was contemplating upgrading to the 15 but now most likely gonna upgrade to 14 instead
Some of the issues with the 15 Pro are that; one that the rear panel no longer has a metal back plate, and two, the aluminum chassis doesn’t provide enough rigidity. Apple cheaped out on the frame by making the titanium only a minimal cladding. Stainless steel is a superior chassis and frame.
Iphone 14 pro built like a tank 😤
Personally this doesn’t bother me either. I never have any complaints about the edges being sharp or anything. I dropped my 14 pro on rocks with no case and maybe rolled over it with my scooter… there’s only two spots on the edges that are jagged now from the rocks. Nothing serious. I also dropped it on a rock while hiking. The screen protector cracked, but not the phone
Mine shattered with 2 drops
S23 ultra still stronger
Heavy like one too
@@RexDCthere’s always that one guy
Worlds first apple care customer for the 15
I was wondering why Apple made jt easy to repair the back glass of the 15
Of course, Sam would fly all the way to Australia for early access😂 Great stuff!
Sam, you are a certified mad lad for this one. Legend.
I lost my 14 PM in the sea for two days, the waves took it back to the beach and I was able to recover it because it still had 30% of battery. Still working like a champ.
Haha crazy
Is that even possible?
Cmon mate…. The sea water would have corroded the lightning port.
it was in a case with a port covering door @@jedlan1848
How the waves bring back a nearly steel density object? -.- What, was it a tsunami?
Legends: who can't afford but still watching 😂😂
2nd time I've seen the back glass crack. They reduced the price of the back glass repair, but you have to replace it 3 times as much.
Titanium is less elastic in comparison to steel; which I am assuming more energy is going to be transferred into the glass.
yeah also titanium doesnt really hold paint coating really well thats why the color was comig off in the first few drops
@@coldnoodllss it's not because of that, that iphone 14 pro is silver model which is raw stainless steel that's why there's no color coming off
@@coldnoodllss Do the natural titanium and white titanium frames get scratched this easy too? (I'm asking this bc I think they might not be painted)
@@brunocpcno
dude if I was to get the iPhone 15 I would definitely get a case for it for sure this is just absolutely gut wrenching to see. 😬😮
It's glass
dont panick. youtube is paying for his applecare...
rich person trying to make content
lol iphone 15 already expensive. The titanium claim should be stronger but reality it scam
But if you didn't have the iPhone 14 Pro as a comparison, would you characterize how much abuse the iPhone 15 took before the case was compromised as "gut wrenching"? I'd like to see comparison against other manufacturers.
His shirt said it all. Be different ! 😂😂😂 damn my heart every single drops !
Went into the store yesterday, checked the new phones out, decent upgrades but sticking with my 13 Pro Max another year. 😅
Love how Sam’s excitement gets higher with each drop 😂 great video!!! I’m impressed with the 14 Pro durability
Nice work. Love how dedicated you are to testing the new phone.
Having a iPhone 14 pro and looking at this 😂🤣🫶🏻❤️
I think that - for the 15 Pro lineup, the best is to select the natural titanium color to get the least visible damage.
I think you should skip the 15 entirely
Skip 15 and stick to 14.
I have the 13 pro max and gonna skipp 90% . Fells cheap this year
Even white
The back can scratch waaaay easier now with iphone 15 because it no longer sticks to the chassis you can look that on camera the glass is separated and glued to the chassis it was now like the nutella box it will break with a little pressure
Makes sense, if you think about the Apple Watch Ultra titanium casing they specifically stated they made it flat and not curved so it wouldn’t break. They might be saving a different flat titanium design for the iPhone ultra for max durability.
This was fun to watch! I feel like both of these took quite a bit of punishment and remained usable. I do think the beveled edges work against the 15 series tho!
To be clear. You’re actually on Granite it appears. Not concrete. However they have a similar hardness on the Mohs scale of 6-7 so the results should be similar enough. Thanks for doing this for us.
Glad I upgraded last year and got the stainless steel version. It’s bad for fingerprints but I prefer the durability.
If I were a protective case retailer, I’d say “ thanks dude, you just made my day !! “😅
Now ... this is a test! Great work! Thanks! Newer isn't always better (in all areas).
My wife has a pretty new 14 pro with a decent moft case. Dropped it once from waist height in the case and the back glass shattered. 🤷♂️Sometimes if you wanna know if a drop is gonna break your phone, you gotta shake a magic 8-ball first and it will let you know
Thank you so very much for your content I really appreciate it n I’m blown away how that the iPhone 15 Pro is not as durable as Apple said it would be now I’m got to get a case very very soon for my iPhone 15 Pro ❤😊
Now I slightly feel better that I skipped pre-ordering of iPhone 15 pro 😄 it's safer to wait for the reviews and let the hype cool down and then make a decision
You'd need at least 10 of these drop test videos to have an actual "result"
You let hype deter your decisions? lol imagine that.
@@garrybussellthey want the hype to die down so the phone isn’t sold out and less expensive duh
Are you going to drop your phone that high? 🙈
these days I was thinking about which phone to get, because I have an iphone 12 pro max and I didn't know what to choose between the iphone 14 pro or 15 pro, but after this test I was convinced, so I will definitely get the iphone 14 pro. Thanks for this test!!✌️✌️
I love the design on the 14 but I got the 15 solely for the USB-C port
The best comparison video ever I watched in TH-cam. Thank you for helping me to choose 🙂❤
Thanks for doing this drop test. I was wondering if I get a new phone do I need to get a case. I think a normal drop like the first couple that you did both phones seemed to be fine. It looks like the 14 is extraordinarily durable. I don't ever picture my self having a drop from an unusually high distance so I am not too worried about it. I do have a protection plan so in the event a drop causes some damage I can get it replaced. I like the lighter weight that you mentioned on the 15. That is something I will benefit from on a daily basis. Again thanks for doing this test.
Yes you do need a case and don’t waste your money on stupid things like the the iphone 15 pro max instead get the 14 pro max for cheaper and just wait until the iPhone 16 pro max💀
There aren’t enough drop tests anymore. Great work Sam. Definitely keeping my 14 pro max
Well no shit, there’s literally no use in upgrading every year. That statement about your current phone is stupid, you just included it cuz why not
I still go for the 14pro .....thanks for this video!
Thank you for the drop test. I was waiting for this video. You just gain a new subscriber. I did buy the case for my iPhone 15 and also camera protector. Hope my iPhone will last for at least 3 years
I wish they keep the flat glass. With the thinner bezels, they could probably make the edge of frame rounded, extend it a little bit outwards (with internal aluminium support) , but keep the flat glass a tiny bit lower than the frame. That would be a lot more durable than switching to a new material.
they're saving that for the iphone 20 probably
@@nadamuchu lmao
Yo Sam, you reminded me of everythingapplepro, I haven't seen a video like this in a long time, it was great 😁
Hey Sam,
Sooo good to see you in Australia 🇦🇺. I am from Melbourne.
wow good test thanks to help us to choose what the perfect phone
Hahaha this is so great. Here I am super excited on iPhone Eve, getting ready to have a good nights sleep to get my iPhone 15 Pro Max in natural titanium tomorrow, and I see that Luke drops a video that he went to get the iPhone early in Australia. I saw your face pop up in the beginning of the video and thought oh my God, so this is what that boy was up to! Now here I am. So great Sam hope you’re having an awesome trip. Can’t wait for the next Genius Bar! 💙
Enjoy your new iPhone dude :-) my head hurts because I have the iPhone 14 Pro Max and I can't convince my mind to not upgrade lol
As someone who has vision issues, the pro is non negotiable for me. I need that LiDAR sensor for the detection features in the magnifier, like point and speak, for instance. I was looking at upgrading to the iPhone 15 Pro Max from the 13 Pro for the extra safety features, bigger screen, dynamic island, and especially USB-c right? Seeing this video just made me nervous. Even though I know I’d put a case on it but wow. Just wow.
Mate I could drive 20 mins and do a drop test in front of the Opera House right now 😂
There’s a difference between durability of a broad force trying to bend the material versus resistances to chips and scratches obtained from drops. I’m guessing titanium in theory is better for resistance to scratches and chips overall but worse at resisting an intentional/constant higher pressure bend.
A big problem with the testing methodology here though: once the first glass crack happened on the 15, the following increased damage wasn’t entirely a fair comparison. It was already compromised and doesn’t represent what would have happened if an undamaged iPhone 15 had the same happen.
I’m surprised at these results but so glad I’m keeping my 14 pm 😮. Maybe one day I’ll be brave enough to go case-less 😊. Painful to watch but great video 🫣👍
THANK YOU for doing this, jesus I didnt know the difference was gonna be that bad, im definitely gonna run a good case on my 15 pro, thanks :))
Nice, shout out to the bench I sit on my lunch breaks 😂
I think you got quite lucky with the Iphone 14 pro. I remember getting mine last year and within the first month the glass shattered by loosing it out my pocket while sitting in a chair. While i remember my iphone 13 pro max falling from a 6 foot drop onto the front screen surviving without any dents.
Fr?
My man is actually doing this in public, do this out where I live and he'll get jumped before he even take the phones out of their boxes lol
I actually wondered if the 15 would shatter easier because of the titanium! Titanium is stronger which could hold up better to smaller day-to-day scratches along the edges but because stainless steel is softer, it actually allows for the impact to be taken by the stainless steel, therefore removing the pressure from the screen/back glass from a fall. So what cases are you guys getting? 😉
Yes! same thinking
Makes me glad I already ordered cases for mine. I’m going with Dbrand and Latercase.
Except titanium is not stronger. I thought everyone knew that but for some reason people are convinced that a cooler name means it's stronger. No one ever said it was.
@@raidzor5452 They have advertised how much lighter, “stronger” and durable it is. But the thing that most people are overlooking is that it’s an alloy between aluminium and titanium. Most of it, especially inside, is aluminum. The only titanium part is the outside of the side rails.
I agree curved edges obviously will play a big part as they always have but titanium is stronger than steel per mass. Depending on the types/grades but roughly a steel that is stronger than titanium will have 3-4 times the mass. Making that a very large, heavy and uncomfortable phone. If the 14 had 3-4 times more mass of stainless steel than it would be on par with titanium for strength. However, you would also have a super heavy, large, uncomfortable and ugly phone….that would also have a screen/back glass that would be just as likely to break as the titanium iPhone 15. 📱
Let’s just put cases on them and be happy for a lighter and more comfortable phone with a slightly smaller overall size without compromising on the screen size. ✌🏻
Bro cant stop shaking the phones while showing the results. 😊
as someone who lives in Australia, it was insane you flew here
I think the replaceable back glass helped the camera to come apart. Now you don't have to replace the whole housing. Just replace your phone.
I bet @apple would like to see that iPhone 15’s damage. I’ve never seen the camera housing cover come off the phone like that before. That’s very interesting to me.
Probably the adhesive or back glass shattered just perfectly enough for the camera to fall out

This @@aroc3908
@@aroc3908That was shocking as hell.
you Should use diff phones for different height drop, same phone will have some impact from previous drop which will damage it more in next drop.
You also use a case with tempered glass for such an expensive smartphone. My XS is still like new, not a single scratch or blemish, even though it was dropped dozens of times, thanks to the case and tempered glass.
That’s so disappointing 😮. Thanks for the test though!
ive had the 12 pro max since lauch day and ive dropped it INFINITELY, getting out if the car, from the kitchen counter, thrown it at the table, tossed it across the room and it STILL looks like new with 0 cracks or dents. just minor scratches.
im glad i didnt pre-order the 15pm 😅😅😅
This is the video I was looking for.
I really think the flat edge is better protection
jesus christ.. you're the most brutal (?) yet practical reviewer I've ever seen.. Cudos brother thank you so much!
It’s easier and cheaper to replace the back glass, but what worries me is that the cameras get exposed if it breaks.
I mean how many drops and height did it take to do so? These tests dont simulate real world usage as you wont be dropping the phone like that 13 times in one day.
Gotta leave a like for the dedication. Flew to Australia to make content. I’d sub twice if I could. 🤝
or dislike for contributing to CO2 emissions just to show the content
@@pistopitpit Surprised he didn't rave about the carbon neutrality of the new products too.
The Titanium frame is way "tighter" and more complex so that means it takes away less force. How screen protectors / bulletproof vests etc. work is they try to take the whole damage and leave what's behind them in tact. So if a high quality screen protector breaks in the first fall, most of the times you should be thankful. Here the titanium frame because it's so hard it is less plastic and takes away less of the force therefore the frame will be in one piece when everything else goes to hell.
- That's also why stainless steel frame was getting a beating and the glass was in one piece, when it was the opposite for titanium
Great test, thank you very much!
Ouch! Brand new phones being dropped - that’s hard to watch. They both seem to hold up well. It seems the curved design affects the drop protection. Interesting finding. I’m thinking that once the 15 Pro cracked, follow-on drops made it easier to crack. You literally would need to drop a new phone from each height to really determine the durability, but don’t do it! That’s cool you went to Australia with Luke to do this early.
I think what is happening is that titanium being a harder metal, does not disperse shocks as well as stainless steel & aluminum, hence not working well with glass. Not sure how Apple engineers didn't foresee this... This may potentially be the worst iPhone made in terms of durability.
IPhone 6 is worse than this
@@ggimtmemes I think you meant 6+. I disagree.
Yes, that bent. But the camera housing never fell off & it took a significant amount of force to bend. Plus it had no issues of the screen breaking every time the phone fell, because aluminum disperses shock much better.
This on the other hand requires very light pressure to break the back & the glass shatters on the first drop almost every single time. Not to mention the ridiculous price difference between what this costs and what a 6+ costed back in the day.
Dude filming on the rain, the commitment!
Bro that 20feet drop was insane😂😂😂
