The new iPhones were launched just a few days ago, and some have preferred to drop them on concrete to see if they will withstand the fall • Does Apple stand up to security because the devices are more powerful?
The results are surprising

This is what thousands of shekels look like when you smash them in front of your eyes: Apple's iPhone 12 series arrived in stores less than a week ago, and the network was quick to check whether the company is committed to more fall-resistant devices - and passed them a series of abuses.
In the test of the renowned YouTube channel PhoneBuff, it appears that the new iPhones - iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro - have the same durability, with a screen that survives falls planned from a great height using a machine, except for the glass back of the iPhone 12 which did not survive the crashes and shattered.
In addition, the frame of the iPhone 12 Pro has also absorbed marks that are very noticeable.
On the other hand, in the test of YouTuber Philip Coroy from the EverythingApplePro channel, the results are slightly different.
Koroi used his hands instead of the machine and examined the survivability of the devices from three different heights - the height of the hand, the height of the head and the height of about 3 meters.
The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro survived the falls from the first two heights, but not the fall from a height of 3 meters.
The result: the back glass of the iPhone 12 Pro crashed completely, including that of the photo array, while the iPhone 12 model seemed to survive the fall better, with a partial shattering of the back of the device.
Also, the screen of the Pro model cracked at the bottom - but continued to work as usual.
