See, the iPhone 16 is better than the iPhone 15… :-)
Could you save mankind?
Probably not.
People still watch these? Why?
It is entertaining.
How?
If mankind could agree on what is entertaining and what is not, the charts would be much more enjoyable. :-)
I mean, yeah I guess?
My question was why some people find these tech destruction videos entertaining and I thought that you, as someone who posted a link to one to a technology board, could give your opinion on that but apparently not.
Well, a slightly less flippant answer: I’m seriously interested in finding out how an iPhone behaves when it falls. I’m very clumsy and in the 15+ years I’ve been using smartphones, I’ve dropped one more than once in such an annoying way that I’ve had to buy a new one.
Beyond the pure entertainment value of these videos - comparable perhaps to monster truck shows (‘haha look, the car is flat!’) - they are definitely a recommendation to buy for people like me.

Drop tests never yield realistic results (even non-sensationalist ones) because there are about a million different ways to drop a phone.
Get a decent case, that’s the best advice anyone could give you.
Is it tho?
“haha I hit x object with a hammer y times, this is the result”
I’ve never understood these videos, phones were never built to survive these niche cases. Just a waste of material and a device.
it’s the “I threw my money in the fire” video, without the risk of being charged a federal crime.
I’m sure it’s not even his own money.
Why?
