First Iphone 5 Vs Samsung Galaxy S3 Drop Test by yusuf01(m): 8:53am On Sep 22, 2012
And I hear all those Samsung fan boys whining about iphone 5, this drop test is actually done by androidauthority.com, so spew the hate android fans!

I'm posting from a mobile, head to the link for the video and see for yourselves!

Folks, to quote our Darcy LaCouvee, the iPhone 5 is “rock solid”. It’s not often that you see such words on Android Authority. What could have pushed Darcy, an Android fanatic, to utter such radical words?
Well, as much as we hate to admit it, the iPhone 5 did amazingly well in our drop test, while the
Samsung Galaxy S3 came out in pretty bad shape. It’s the cold hard truth that we can’t hide and we can’t ignore.

This morning in Hong Kong, Darcy dropped the
Galaxy S3 and the iPhone 5 a total of four times,
each time from an increasing height. To make our drop test more realistic, we tried to recreate the accidents that happen most often in real life. We ruthlessly let the two devices fall to the hard
pavement, just to see what happens. Needless to
say, it wasn’t pretty. See for yourselves. Dayum!

The hard aluminum shell of the iPhone 5 withstood the impact pretty well, and the glass protecting the display remained intact. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S3 predictably lost its back cover and suffered damage to the casing and the front glass. Sad, sad, sad.

The drops were not comparable. The SGS3 hit the ground with its glass face while the iphone5 hit on it's side.

Didn't you check the last iphone 5 drop? †ЂΞ guy had to drop it face down at around a 6ft height? Nothing happened except scratches. Nd †ЂΞ GS3 fell on its edge ∂α† led to the broken screen (check †ЂΞ video again nd notice how it landed, it didn't land face down, but on its edge).

And knowing ∂α† this comparison came from an android fanatic, you should expect the worse for †ЂΞ iphone 5. But instead of whining, †ЂΞ guy had to accept the obvious truth; †ЂΞ iphone 5 is bulletproof.

And the comparison continues... Mashable just confirmed that the iphone 5 zips past SSG3 in speed test

And what about ∂α† sammy's ad, I know †ЂΞ ad ran on sheer hatred of Apple and without actually knowing ∂α† the next big thing is right here --- iphone 5
