Galaxy S6 Drop Test From 25 FT!

2015-07-02
what's up guys David here and today we're gonna be taking a look at the Rhino shield crashguard which is a bumper case for the galaxy s6 but what makes this case special at least according to evolutive labs the company behind the case is what they call egg drop technology which is set to absorb impact of at least not up to put at least eleven and a half B what we're looking at here is the bundle that includes both front and back screen protectors in addition to the bumper which is actually available in a number of different colors and is also available for the iPhone 6 so if you guys are interested I'll be putting any links I find down below in the description now if you guys can remember last time we did the fumble style drop test in the galaxy s6 it didn't bear too well with the glass cracking on both the front and the back when we first dropped it onto tile and the phone completely given out when we dropped it onto concrete so in this video made possible by evolutive labs for providing both the case and the galaxy s6 a test with we're gonna be putting the s6 through the same exact foam bo style drop test but this time with the protection of the Rhino shield crashguard to see just how much impact protection this case can actually offer let's go ahead and get right into it alright so on your left you have a galaxy s6 being tested without a case and on your right you have a galaxy s6 with the Rhino shield crashguard well start off by dropping the phones on their backs onto a hard tile surface from about 3 feet up and as you can see the s6 without a case has its glass cracked on the back while the Rhino shield protected s6 shows no signs of damage whatsoever next drop is the side drop onto tile this time the s6 is a little bit of scuffing along the bottom but nothing too bad while again the case protected s6 remains flawless all right now it's time to drop both phones face-first onto tile and the s6 without a case not only has its outer glass badly cracked but the actual display underneath the glass is cracked as well so pretty significant damage while on the other hand the s6 with the Rhino shield still looks in perfect condition alright so like I said earlier this first drop onto concrete is where the naked s6 gives out so this is really the moment of truth for the Rhino shield crashguard and again nothing absolutely no damage to the s6 with the Rhino shield while the naked Essex gave out completely with shattered glass on the back and the display just totally Wiggin out on the front with the naked s6 failing the test will only be testing the rhino shield from here on out so the next drop is the side drop onto concrete and the phone still remains undamaged only thing that really happened here was a few small scuffs along the bottom of the case itself alright final drop in this fumble style drop test is face-first onto concrete and the s6 still works no visible damage to the phone itself only a few scuff marks to the case on the top right and along the side all right so we could have ended this drop test right here as the Rana shield has already proven that it can protect the essays from everyday drops but the guys over at evolutive labs actually wanted us to go beyond the phone book style drop test and take things to the extreme so we decided to do not one but two consecutive drops onto concrete from just over six feet high and the result was the same the s6 works flawlessly with only a few more scuffs to the bottom of the case itself all right now it's time to put that 11 and a half foot claim to the test dropping the s6 from just over 12 feet and the case lives up to its promise with the Essex still working no damage to the glass or the display on the front and the back looking pretty much in perfect condition alright so I was so impressed with the case that I just had to take things to the next level just to see what it can do for that tent so here we're dropping the Essex from about 24 feet up this is crazy and we weren't able to get the screen to actually turn on the glass on the outside doesn't look like it's shattered or any kind of noticeable damage but like I said nothing comes up on the screen when you press the home button or the power button so after ten consecutive drops with each drop getting harder and harder the Galaxy S six finally gave out it's actually the inner display that's not working the outer glass is perfectly intact and the device technically turns on I here do the jingle when I power cycle it but obviously nothing shows up on the front outside of the capacitive touch buttons taking a look underneath the case the edges of the phone look pretty much in perfect condition the back shows no sign of visible damage and looks brand-new when you take off the protective layer and the front looks virtually undamaged until you hold it up at a certain angle where you can see the inner display cracked underneath the glass so overall I have to say I'm pretty impressed with the case while I was kind of expecting it to pass the bumblestop portion of the test I didn't actually think of survived as many drops as it actually did especially that 12-foot drop which if you think about it is kind of crazy considering what the phone had been through before that point and the fact that this is just a bumper case it's not one of those heavy-duty and often bulky cases that hide the design of the phone it's a lightweight alternative and it gives it a similar level of protection so I don't know I gotta say yes it's pretty damn impressive obviously there is a breaking point and frost out the tenth drop from about 25 feet so as long as you don't something crazy like that you should probably be okay but anyways that is pretty much it for me in this video thank you guys for watching him as always I'll see you in the very next episode
