 durability when the ceramic

shield glass on the iPhone 12 series

didn't crack in any of our drops even

the one from higher up at just under one

and a half meters so this year with the

iPhone 13 we're gonna skip the lower

drops all together and do them all from

that higher height to see if the iPhone

13 pro max is as durable as its

predecessor despite being a little bit

heavier and to see how well it stacks up

to its biggest competition in the galaxy

s21 ultra let's find out

nano pro is a tiny little charger that's

about the same size as the old 5 watt

a charger that apple used to include in

the box but is capable of charging the

iPhone three times as fast we

tested it with it charging the iPhone

from zero to 56 percent in just 30

minutes now at 20 watts it matches the

fast charging power brick that apple

sells separately but the difference is

the nano pro is roughly 50 percent

smaller making it easier to throw in a

bag while you're traveling or just

taking up less space on your power strip

and it also comes in four different

color options like this glacier blue

the version that we have here that looks

pretty clean now the nano pro doesn't

just charge your phone quickly it also

does so intelligently with Anker's

active shield system including a dynamic

temperature sensor and a power tuner

chip so that way it can adjust the power

output when it needs to safeguard

your phone so you can charge it fast and

you can make it last click on the first

learn more round number one backdrop in

three

two

one

[Applause]

after that backdrop from just under 1.5

meters both phones have their rear glass

shattered with the iPhones looking

especially bad around that camera

housing I mean taking a look at the

tropic can in slow motion we had a glass

flying everywhere but despite how bad it

looks through the phone is still

technically fully functional with even

the cameras and that lidar sensor

working just fine the galaxy's back

doesn't look as bad with the metal

housing on the camera certainly helping

protect that area of the phone so while

it's not the best result from either i

think the slight edge goes to the galaxy

in round number one round number two

corner drop two

one

[Music]

both phones handled that corner drop

pretty well the screens remain undamaged

and everything else is still fully

functional but in terms of the damage to

the corners themselves the iPhone fared

better here with its stainless steel

frame getting way less scuffed compared

to the galaxy's aluminum giving an easy

win to the iPhone in round number two

round number three face drop three

two

one

[Music]

after the face drop the galaxy s21

ultra's glass cracks and

so does the iPhones I'm kind of

surprised that the iPhone 13's ceramic

shield glass cracked here since when we

did this same drop on the iPhone

12 pro max last year that phone survived

without a problem so I don't know if it

cracked due to the iPhone 13 pro max

being heavier Orville is just the random

bad luck that can happen on any given

drop but either way, it's not

the result you'd want to see on your

brand new iPhone the galaxy for its part

did pretty much just as bad so I have to

call it a tie in round number three

bonus round despite all the shattered

the glass both phones remain fully

functional so we move on to the bonus

round where we're dropping these phones

up to 10 times onto steel to

test their impact and shock resistance

after that first bonus drop while the

initial damage got a bit worse

on each phone both phones still seem to

be working just fine so we'll keep on

going

three drops in and the iPhone lose a

a big chunk of glass from its rear and it

also suffers some damage to its screen

with some of the pixels there no longer

working but in terms of the

the touchscreen's functionality well

everything still seems to be working

just fine so we'll keep on dropping the

phones

six brutal drops in and this time it's

the galaxy that's having trouble with

its screen just freaking out now the

the good news here is it did seem to recover

after we locked and unlocked it but it's

something we'll have to keep

an eye on in the next drops

and after all 10 bonus drops neither

the phone looks good but the iPhone looks

especially bad with multiple trunks in

the back just falling off due to the

sheer impact with the steel now just

like before outside of all the shattered

glass and those damaged pixels

everything else on the phone is still

working fine but compared to the galaxy

at least visually it's a pretty big

difference the galaxy's touchscreen

still works as you'd expect there isn't

any damage to the pixels on the display

and the glass just doesn't look anywhere

near as bad so it's a clear win for the

galaxy in round number four so with all

four rounds in the books let's take a

look at the scorecard where the galaxy

sustained slightly less damage in the

backdrop the stainless steel frame on

the iPhone outperformed in the corner

drop both phones shattered in the face

drop and the galaxy held up better in

the bonus round helping the galaxy earn

more points overall making it the winner

in this drop test anyways that is it for
