Galaxy Note 20 Ultra vs. iPhone 11 Pro Max Drop Test

It seems like every year we hear about a new smartphone that has the strongest glass ever created; In fact, these air quotes are something I think I've done at every

drop

test

introduction for the past two years and this year is no exception. 20

ultra

is the first smartphone to feature Corning's Gorilla Glass Victis, which the company claims is 25% better in

drop

performance than Gorilla Glass 6. While that sounds impressive, stronger glass in itself isn't the whole story, but how the manufacturer finally implements it. that glass in their phones which I think is more important, for example a manufacturer could technically go for stronger glass but then use a thinner sheet while keeping the durability at the same level as the previous generation and at the same time making the device be a little thinner or freer. internal space for something like a larger battery or they could actually use the same thickness of glass and use stronger glass which would improve durability but you never know how it's implemented and that's why we do these drop

s today, we're ruling out the

20

ultra

and then we'll compare it to images from the iPhone 11 pro max drop test that we performed earlier so we can see how these two phones compare side by side.

This video is sponsored by iblazon smartphones can be expensive, but it doesn't mean that protecting them has to be with the iblis aries case for only 20; It features an uncompromising polycarbonate shell, a transparent back that doesn't hide the phone's design, and deeply raised bezels and corners that give bills the protection they deserve. breaking the bank, you can find it on Amazon by searching for

s 20 in the iblizon case or by clicking the first link below the bottom of the round number one in three two one after the bottom, the note unfortunately has part of its glass broken, the damage does not It's too bad, although the cracks are mainly on the top left and while there are a few scratches here and there on the rest of the back, the overall damage is not as bad as it was on the iPhone, where the rear glass was practically broken. everywhere, even on the camera housing, so while it wasn't pretty, it's an easy win for the notes in round number one, round number two, the corner drop produces similar results in both phones and neither of the results are that bad on both phones.

It still passes our 15-point inspection and I would say the only difference here is that the note damage is a little more visible and scratched, while the iPhone's stainless steel only got scratched, giving the iPhone a slight edge on round number two. three sided drop in three two one after the side drop the iPhone glass cracked with the damage starting at the bottom left and then extending to the top right the

note 20 ultra on the other hand, well, surprisingly its glass remains completely intact which is an incredible result with the only real damage to the phone being these very light scratches that are only noticeable under direct lights like the ones we have here other than that it is a perfect result now it is important to keep in mind Note that this is just a sample size of one, unfortunately it is not.

It's not sustainable for us to do the multiple tests we want to do, but it's still a really impressive result for the grades that give you the win in bonus round number three and both phones prove to be fully functional after our 15-point inspection. to the bonus round where each phone is dropped from higher up to just under 1.5 meters last time the iPhone was able to survive the 10 bonus rounds although it was pretty ugly with pieces of glass literally falling and the phone losing main functionality. Of its rear cameras, the Note 20 Ultra's front glass hasn't even cracked yet, so we'll see if it can maintain its performance here in the bonus round at three, two, one, one and the Note's glass is still intact.

There are no cracks on the front and everything is still fully functional on the phone so we'll move on to the next drop, drop another drop and exactly the same result with no additional damage to report so we'll continue to drop three, two, one, seven . falls and still nothing, the front glass has not cracked and the interesting thing is that the initial cracks in the rear glass at the bottom of the concrete have not gotten much worse. Normally we see cracks like this that start to turn into spider webs with all the impact tests but nothing on the note 321 after the 10 bonus drops surprisingly the glass of the note 20 ultra on the front is still not broken the phone is still completely functional the oled looks great the cameras are still good and the in-screen fingerprint scanner works flawlessly so just an amazing result every time, well with the four rounds in the books let's take a look at the scorecard In the first round, the note 20 ultra's damage was not as bad as the iPhones in the second round, the stainless steel on the iPhone gave the slight edge and the third, the note 20 ultra had the result you would expect when leaving drop your phone with the glass still completely intact and it stayed that way for the entire bonus round, making the
