Red iPhone 7 Scratch Test - How durable is it?!

2017-03-26
in front of me I have the product red iPhone 7 I've already tested the glass display of the iPhone 7 in one of my previous durability tests the only thing we haven't tested is the deep red coloring is it is scratch Abul at the jet black iphone 7 or can i handle everyday life let's find out one thing I do like about iPhones is that they have an all-metal design it is heavy and solid which is good and it looks like Apple is kept with that same theme on this red version the top is metal the red iPhone 7 still has those plastic antenna lines that curve around the corners it blends in pretty well with the metal even if it doesn't sound as delicious during the scratch test the sizer metal as well and it's even metal down here where the headphone jack should be and for the ultimate Perkin quality the buttons are also metal it's a very good feeling phone all round I approved so far the anodized coloring on the back should be pretty resilient as well we're going to find out if you were toss your unprotected cell phone into the same pocket as your keys the red is just not as good at hiding the marks as the matte black version I tested earlier most of the marks can rub off but a faint outline is still there it's still more scratch resistant than the jet black 7 though coins seem to have the same effective keys it's almost as if the keys and coins are rubbing off onto the red instead of the red getting damaged but either way the marks are permanent so it's probably a good idea to have some kind of protection on your phone the center Apple looks like it's made from polished aluminum my razor blade can definitely mark it up but something normal like keys or coins should be just fine the coin didn't add any marks into the mess now Apple and product red are pretty interested Apple has been partnered with product red for about 10 years now and by selling product red items in the store they've raised more than 130 million dollars for the Global Fund to fight AIDS that's pretty impressive because Apple estimates that even one dollar can provide three days worth of life-saving medicine for some another notable contributor to the Global Fund is the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation they've contributed about 1 billion 400 million dollars since 2001 and if you know Bill Gates is donated to something it's got to be good it's great to see two huge organizations contributing to something so impactful and life-saving on a global scale every penny counts so thumbs up for Apple and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation for contributing if you're interested in donating to the Global Fund to fight AIDS but don't want to buy an iPhone Apple has included a link in the bottom of their website but all it seems to do at the moment is cycle through to Apple's own iTunes Store so I'll include a working link in my video description where you can contribute directly to the Global Fund until Apple gets their link fixed maybe with all of us working together we really can have an aids-free generation that concludes math time with Jerry anchor was kind enough to send me some clear cases to protect my artwork on the phone or maybe it was to protect the phone for my artwork I forget exactly what the letter said the case is surprisingly clear which means that this might be the perfect solution for someone who wants to show off the red iPhone without covering anything up it's a pretty tight and snug fit all the way around the phone if you want something slightly more structural than just rubber they also sent an ice case with a more rigid plastic bumper it has the same type sit but has the bonus protection of the harder plastic ring around the side and the best part of all is that they are surprisingly inexpensive I'll toss some links right below this video if you want to check them out huge thanks to Ankur for sending me these cases my phone definitely appreciates it since I'm sure a few people are curious I did do a most tests to the back of the aluminum the level-4 pick behaved the same as the keys and coins but the level-5 pick was able to scrape off some of that red coating kind of interesting most of my behind-the-scenes stuff happens on Twitter and instagrams to follow me over there and thank you so much for watching I'll see you around
