Here’s what happens when you drop a frozen Galaxy Note 7 from 100 feet
When you’re considering picking up a new smartphone, it’s likely that you conduct a little research into its durability. This usually comes in the form of watching a few drop tests over on YouTube. Traditionally, these experiments are conducted from waist height while the handset is free from any protection. However, the folks over at GizmoSlip have decided to put the Galaxy Note 7‘s strength to the test in a slightly unconventional fashion.
First, they submerged the device in a bowl of water and placed it in a freezer for twenty-three consecutive hours to test its IP68 rating, then, once the handset was completely frozen in the center of a bowl-shaped ice casing, they dropped it from the top of a building approximately 100-feet above ground. Much to our surprise, the device survived the encounter without a single scratch and functioned perfectly once powered on.
