iPhone XR Durability Test – is the ‘cheap’ iPhone weak?

Apple’s secreted quite a few brand-new phones thisyear. The iPhone XS and XS Max, which I’ve alreadytested on my canal, and then 6 different spices of this person: the iPhone XR. It’s basically Apple’s iPhone with the priceof a flagship. I asked on Twitter which color of the iPhoneXR I should experiment today, and it was a close call, but the peachy coral edition was chosenas tribute, which is kind of good because our brand new blue friend isn’t even turningon this morning. He’s got a little bit of action anxiety. I’ll push him in and we’ll start with peachy.( stillnes) Let’s is starting.[ Intro] Inside the box we have the standard sluggish charger, along with the lightning headphones that you can’t use anywhere else. And the proprietary lightning line with nodongle for the missing headphone jack.Let’s begins with the scratch test. The one feature that gets abused more than anythingelse on a smartphone by far is the screen. The biggest downside of the iPhone XR, besidesbeing a flagship priced fund telephone, is the screen. There’s been a 1080 p resolving standard acrosscomputer screens, TVs and cell phone for the past 3 years.[ Phone voice saying standing healthful .] Even the iPhone 6 Plus liberated 4 years agohad a super defined 1080 p exhibition. But Apple here, sneakily declined the iPhoneXR from a high definition 1080 p screen down to only 828. You can always say iPhone users simply don’treally be concerned about specs, but there’s a line that got crossed when Apple takes advantageof that and keeps the high price of $800 after imposition, while handing out hardware from 5 yearsago. Glass is still glass though, and scratchesat a level 6 with deeper grooves at a height 7. Apple’s never been a leader in screen resolution, but going backwards in engineering is a slap in the face to unsuspecting customers. There’s one 7 megapixel front facing camerahidden up in the notch, along with a metal earpiece grille, very solidly attached andwill never be coming out on it’s own. Another discrepancies between the XS and XR isthe structure fabric. While the more expensive XS is made from stainlesssteel, the regular expensive XR is made from softer aluminum anodized aluminum. Anodizing is a pretty amazing process wherethe metal is dipped and electrically coated in a super hard-boiled protective stratum of oxide, and could literally be any color we want.So it fixes the dye pairing look prettysweet. Even the SIM card tray with no expandablememory slit went dipped in the same anodizing bath. The buttons are made from metal, along withthe top of the phone, and the brand-new switching slider over here on the side. I still ponder every telephone should have oneof these swaps. The work buttons are made from metal. And the bottom of the phone, right next tothat missing headphone jack is also metal. The only thing down here is the lightningport and the little metal grilles for the loudly orator and microphone.The back of the iPhone XR is made from glass. It still has that wireless accusing. I recall the coloring is a good idea and definitelyadds a nice splashing of uniqueness to the smartphone world. If the Apple logo gently radiated for notificationslike it does on the Razer Phone, it would be examined even cooler. The flashing is under the back glass and protected, together with the little cable microphone grille. Which now creates us up to the camera. Apple’s cameras are improbably good. Merely recollect though, that the screen on thisiPhone XR can’t indicate all the pixels your camera captivates “if youre using” it – kind of blows mymind. Let’s say you take a picture and upright it toInstagram.Instagram publishes images in 1080 pixel blocks. The iPhone XR is 252 pixels short of thatand literally can’t depict Instagram envisions at full excellence. This is an $ 800 telephone that can’t even socialmedia right. Not to mention, Apple is still advertisinga sapphire lens cover protecting the camera, which should scratch at a stage 8 or 9 onMohs scale of hardness, yet we are still seeing heavy stigmatizes at heights 6, 7, and 8. Other sapphire makes like this Tissotwatch face manage pure sapphire just fine. The Tissot sapphire has no scratches belowa height 8. It’s kind of messed up that with Apple youaren’t getting what you pay for on so many levels. The telephones are very pretty though. No doubt about that. But if everything you crave is just beautiful, surfacelevel aesthetics, or time want to cover up the Apple logo, really expend a few cases dollars andslap a dbrand skin on your current phone. Then use the rest of the money you had savedto literally notebook a round trip ticket to Hawaii. You can get to Hawaii and back from basicallyanywhere in the USA for the price of this phone. The inexpensive barks are linked in the description.Huge thanks to dbrand for sponsoring thisvideo and stimulating colorful telephones everywhere. Not to mention, if you purchased basicallyany other phone in the past 3 years, you’ll be able to Instagram at full aspect on yourtrip. You might be like,’ but Jerry, what aboutYouTube? Is the YouTube app still is gonna work okaywith this lower resolution screen ?’ Yeah, it operates. 720 P is just fine, it’ll even pretend to letyou select 1080 p. And of course, the XR will use your data tostream that 1080 into phone, but you won’t get the high definition displayed on yourscreen.The pixels precisely aren’t physically there todo it. Of route, if “youve had” seen someone who hasor charities this telephone, there’s no need to make fun of them. Remember, they are just 252 pixel rows shortof the full picture, and not quite all the way there hardware-wise…if you catch mydrift. The iPhone XR is a 6.1 inch, 828 x1792 ipsLCD and lasted 10 seconds under the heat from my ignite, becoming absolutely pitch-black and turningoff. It’s kind of a risk to burn pixels on theXR when it doesn’t have any to spare in the first place, but they all did make it backto life with a full retrieval. Now it’s time for the crouch research. Apple is using the stronger 7000 series aluminumon the iPhone XR, so it should be solid. But the only way to find out for sure is witha structural flex. Bending from the front yielded no movementin the telephone. No wrinkles in the chassis or bending in the body. Bending from the back got the slightest offlexes, but good-for-nothing to get excited about. Our little orange friend is built like a solid, low-toned decide brick.If Apple charged $500, or maybe even $600 for this hardware, I’d be quite ran. But blaming $800 after tariff for this is likerobbing an old folks home. Yeah, it’s easy and your targets won’t notice, but it’s just…wrong. Apple didn’t get to be a trillion dollar companyby selling trash at a fair rate though. So it is what it is. The XR is structurally resonated, even if thesapphire isn’t pure and the screen automatically downgrades Instagram and YouTube, it doespass my durability measure. I’ll probably bring out this unharmed blueiPhone XR over on my Twitter or Instagram. So come hang out over there for the giveaway. You can always sell it and buy yourself areal phone.Customize your current telephone with the dbrandlink in the specific characteristics. And thanks a ton for watching. I’ll see you around ..
