The Samsung Galaxy S8 is one of the best devices that we can currently find on the market. Its specifications and features are very powerful. In addition, the design and its screen are the most remarkable specifications. But ”¦ How does the Samsung Galaxy S8 withstand scratches, fire and even pressure? A YouTuber has made a durability video of this device. Will it resist?
As usual, the user, JerryRigEverything, takes the Samsung Galaxy S8 out of its box, in order to perform the different durability tests. The Galaxy S8 is a terminal built in aluminum, with a glass front and back. To separate the parts of the screen, point several numbers with a strip and proceed to grate it . We see that only numbers 6 and 7 receive important scratches, leaving the others practically intact. Next, he prepares to grate the speaker for calls, as well as the lenses and the iris scanner. It only gets superficial scratches.
The back is also made of glass, in this case, the line with a cutter. The marks can be seen, but they are not as deep as we would think they would be. On the other hand, the area of the camera, the sensors and the LED flash also do not receive significant injuries. The metallic outline of the lens and the fingerprint reader does. And this one still works perfectly.
Next, he prepares to burn the screen. It is a SuperAMOLED panel, and the normal thing would be for the pixels to burn out and recover again. But this is not the case, and not because they do not recover, but because the heat cannot penetrate the glass. The frames on the other hand, if they receive scratches. Being metal, the truth is that they are quite pronounced, causing the small layer of paint to come out and scratch the interior. Next, it shows the back of the Galaxy S8, inside, where you can see the lens and the fingerprint reader. You are about to scratch the small layer of black paint that covers the device, leaving it transparent. Then he hits the glass, and manages to break it, but on the third try.
Finally, JerryRigEverything bends the device, exerts pressure to break it, but fortunately it does not succeed, it practically does not bend, or break the screen or stop working.
The Galaxy S8 passes the durability test with good marks
Without a doubt, the Samsung Galaxy S8 has passed the JerryRigEverything durability test with good marks. It is a device that not only meets specifications, but also design and resistance. Samsung has wanted to implement high-quality materials, a reinforced aluminum to avoid this type of bending, which, sometimes, happens accidentally. The front and rear glass are coated with Gorilla Glass 5, which makes it scratch resistant. And although they are seen in some points on the screen, in most circumstances it comes out well. Yes, despite the scratches, the Samsung Galaxy S8 has passed this test, and thanks to this, we can already consider it a worthy high-end device. Good design, good processor, good screen, good camera and very good resistance.
