Every new phone goes through the same basic steps when reviewed. Unboxing, benchmarks, software review, phone duels, and of course, the dreaded drop test. Those reviews are really tough to watch. This video featuring the Nexus 4, is no different.
In the video, the Nexus 4 goes through two different drop tests. A short fall, and a slightly longer fall. The sound of it hitting the ground is like nails on a chalkboard. Your shoulders might rise up, and your eyes might squint. The first test, the N4 does very well and not even a scratch is noticeable after the spill. The second, though, does wreak havoc on the back casing of the phone. A nice little shatter mark shows up, but the phone remains in working order. So check out the video below, and feel free to watch it with the sound off.
