What are the current trends in the world of mobile smartphones? Large frameless display, strong filling, stylish design and uniqueness. Changing our old smartphone to a new one, we expect global changes that will bring us a lot of emotions from using the new gadget. As practice shows, most people primarily look at the design of the device, its characteristics (it is not clear why, but this is the topic of a separate article) and the camera. These are important parameters, given that we will use a new purchase every day for at least several hours. But we bet that 9 out of 10 buyers do not think about how fragile the chosen smartphone is.
Agree that you do not want to see a broken screen after the device falls from a small height. Here we will try to figure out and answer the question - which smartphone is the most fragile in the world at the moment, which certainly should not be bought by those who often drop devices.
Why are most new smartphones critically afraid of crashes and fight at the “first opportunity”
The answer to this question is quite simple. It is worth taking a look at the gradation of smartphones in recent years, so 5. What will we see? The farther the progress, the thinner the smartphones become. On the one hand, it is “beautiful” and convenient, on the other hand, there is more risk of mechanical damage. We hope it’s clear why.
The case of most current smartphones consists of glass or metal. The last material for the past few years relates to the "budget" segment. If earlier such devices were more expensive than the others, now there is practically no such difference.
So, and what material should the smartphone case have in order for it to occupy the position of the most “fragile” in the world? That's right - glass.
Samsung Galaxy S8 - the most fragile smartphone in the world
Upon the release of the Galaxy S7, most of the people simply “fell in love” with this device. He possessed all the technological features of the time and discovered something new in the history of mobile devices. The next year, when the 8th Korean flagship came out, we saw an even more interesting novelty. Most people began to change their 7th devices to new, 8th. And only after some time, users began to regret the purchase. And why? Everything is simple - its body is made of glass. Although this is the most important reason, there are several features of this device that, most likely, have been invisible to users for a long time.
If you take S8 and S9, put them side by side, and after carefully trying to find the differences, you can notice the following:
The S8 does not have metal inserts on the sides of the device that the next model has. And they, as it turned out, play a rather important role in the indicator of “fragility” of the device.
On S8, the screen is more curved than S9. And why? If the Koreans put the same metal insert on the S8, then they would not be able to make such a curved screen. Although the difference is not very noticeable, but it really plays a role.
The fingerprint scanner. In S8, it is located on the right side of the device (if you look at the screen of the smartphone). Now it turns out the following: if you pull it out of your pocket on the go and try to unlock it, the device immediately tends to lean slightly to the right side. Thus, the chance of the device falling out of hands increases.
Some “silly” situations when people proved to themselves that the S8 is the most fragile phone
How many times a day do you remove a phone from your pocket? No need to answer, it is clear that the figure will be big. So, a person, taking the phone out of his pocket, hooked the speaker of the smartphone a little with the zipper of his jacket. And what is the result? A huge web has gone on the whole screen.
The second case - the phone crashed when falling on the sofa. How? We are also interested.
Well, at the very end - most of the S8, which fall into the service centers have precisely mechanical damage. With the filling and the other component of the device - everything is fine, even very good! But when designing and choosing materials to create the Samsung Galaxy S8 (and S8 +), the Koreans overdid it ... Therefore, if you often have smartphones falling down, but you are thinking about buying a new one, then choose anything, not the Galaxy S8 :)
