iPhone 12 Pro Durability Test Reveals Tests How Resistant the Ceramic Shield Is When It Comes to Scratches

During its iPhone 12 Pro presentation, Apple stated that the Ceramic Shield, which is sandwiched together to provide additional security to the flagship, is said to have four times the crack resistance of normal glass. This would make it more robust, right, than normal glass? Well, we really can't take the word of Apple for it and neither can JerryRigEverything, who agreed on the 6.1-inch premium handset to conduct a durability examination.

The ceramic shield appears to display the same scratch resistance as the same form of glass on the most premium Android flagships.

On the latest $999 iPhone 12 Pro, Zach just got his hands and what better way to test it than to run a reliability test on it. The new design of the iPhone 12 Pro, according to the YouTuber, would add more to the security we spoke about earlier, because the front glass sits slightly lower, making the side frames vulnerable to impact first, thus shielding the screen. Nevertheless, he whips out his Mohs hardness picks and notes that at level 6, the front glass scratches, but the marks left behind are less noticeable compared to the tests he has seen before.

The same test is repeated on the rear camera lenses in order to see how scratch-resistant the three units are. The lens leaves marks from a level-6-pick, much like the show. The remarkable feature of Ceramic Shield is that it conducts heat relatively slowly, which is why there are no permanent OLED damage marks even after the screen has been in contact with heat for more than half a minute when Zach attempts to bring the flame of his lighter against the panel.

Onto the bending exam, which on every episode of JerryRigEverything is our favourite part, just to see whether smartphone manufacturers have taken shortcuts when it comes to their product's durability. When pressure is applied from both sides, the iPhone 12 Pro holds out incredibly well not flexing an inch. This is impressive to see, and when it comes to adhering to the durability of its goods, we should commend Apple.

In short, even after it has gone through light or moderate levels of violence, you should expect the iPhone 12 Pro to last for a considerably long time. Those annual iOS updates also indicate that Apple's latest and greatest tech features can be accessed by users, which is a bonus. As for the Ceramic Shield, to actually call it an advance in durability, it seems like there would have to be more variations from the company, but at least we're getting somewhere.

Night Mode on iPhone: Everything You Need to Know

Image
The newest iPhones from Apple, iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max, are fitted with a new feature called Night mode, designed to take crisp, clear pictures even if lighting conditions, such as at night, are low.   Unfortunately, Night mode is not supported on the   iPhone SE   or   iPhone XR . It remains an exclusive feature for the ‌iPhone 11‌ line of phones. As the name suggests, Night mode allows you to take pictures at night, with lighting that has never been possible on an iPhone before, thanks to new hardware and new machine learning algorithms. Although Night Mode brightens photos, it also preserves the feeling of night time, balancing an image's light and dark elements. For a while now, Android smartphone manufacturers such as Google and Samsung have had unique modes to brighten up evening shots, and Apple is on equal footing with these other smartphone cameras with the 2019 iPhones. What is Night Mode? Night mode is an automatic setting that take...

Best 2021 Xbox controllers: Get the advantage of these third-party and official pads with these

Image
  (Pocket-lint) - The Xbox controller has a pretty remarkable lineage already - following the very unusual design embraced by the original console's chunky gamepad, the Xbox 360 introduced a new type that's stood the test of time. It has been updated only marginally over the Xbox One years, and for the Xbox Series X and S as well, it has remained very similar. That's a testament to a great deal of architecture, but it also has some limitations. Picking up a new controller might be a game-changer, because it's not quite the right shape for you, or whether you want some extra buttons and features.
