Destructive tests are a mandatory attribute of the release of the most popular flagship smartphones. And although they are not necessarily representative, it is still interesting to see how new gadgets can handle certain situations. It's a little more interesting when it comes to comparative tests of fierce competitors - Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and iPhone 16 Pro Max.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and iPhone 16 Pro Max now have the same type of titanium, a similar glass shape on the front and back, and very similar weight. However, the Galaxy S25 Ultra has the new Gorilla Glass Victus 2, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max has an improved version of Ceramic Shield.
However, in both cases, there is no guarantee that drops will not pose a danger to these enclosures, which is what still supports manufacturers of protective accessories. And once again adds to the excitement of watching destructive tests.
