The new smartphone iPhone 6s and 6s More Apple iPhone are designed to be more resistant to shocks and drops than models from previous years. Indeed, as indicated by the Cupertino giant on its site, they are made ​​of aluminum 7000 Series, the strongest alloy never used an iPhone. This is the same as that used in aluminum aerospace.
In addition, they also feature a new glass screen that would be stronger than the glass used in the iPhone 6. Indeed, the new protective glass iPhone 6s result of a unique process of dual ion exchange, making it more solid at the molecular level.

In the video below, we can see both the new iPhone and iPhone 6s 6s More in a number of drop tests (drop test). As we can see from the video, the new iPhone are apparently more resistant than previous models, although the screens on both smartphones crack.
Another series of falls was performed. Indeed, the author of the video devices breaks down in 3 different heights: Pocket level the head and above the head. The iPhone 6s More must undergo a fall of more than about 3 m. As you can see in the video, the two devices are doing pretty well if they fall out of your pocket, and breast height, with scratches on the frame. However, since the fall is more severe, the device landed face down and the screen is broken on impact. Finally, the iPhone 6s Plus was dropped from a height of 3 m. Surprisingly, the screen has remained perfectly intact, despite landing face down on the ground.
Although these tests can certainly vary from case to case, it is encouraging that both devices are doing rather well. Indeed, it seems that the new 7000 Series aluminum frame is more resistant to bumps and drops that the models of previous years, and it should not bend more as the iPhone 6, which was faced with the effect "Bengate". However, if you drop your camera, it is likely that your screen is cracked.
