VIDEO: The iPhone 6S' durability is put to the test

What’s the first thing that you’d do when you got a new iPhone? If you’re YouTuber TechRax it’s clearly turn on the camera and film yourself attempting to destroy your new handset.

First, he unboxes the iPhone 6S before getting out a hammer and a knife. No unboxing is complete without these tools, of course.

He tests how durable the camera is when stabbed with a knife. As you’d expect, the glass shatters, but the camera still works somewhat. Then he drops the hammer on the handset before unleashing some more anger on the unsuspecting iPhone 6S.

Not content with destroying one handset, he then drops another iPhone 6S in a pot of boiling water. The phone’s display stays on for around nine seconds before blacking out. While it didn’t work initially after coming out of the water, the iPhone 6S bounced back a couple of times.

And finally, TechRax tested how durable the iPhone 6S is when dropped. The larger iPhone 6S Plus also got in on the action here. Both handsets were dropped on their side and front from a height. Both handsets will work after being dropped on their screen, but you’ll have a cracked screen to remind you of your clumsiness.
