This is because they were forced to build it with USB-C by evil Europe!

- Please edit that to say "were", it's giving me an aneurysm.
  
  Edit: downvoted for being right, typical Lemmy.

  You are absolutely right!

  That's because you can shove your aneurysm back where it came from. You know how it's spelled correctly, just look over it.

Absolute horseshit. Nothing to be learned from n = 1 and an uncontrolled experiment.

Well I mean this is sample size 1. Not possible to say how much the test results were affected by the phones not landing exactly the same way. Maybe one was weakened by an unlucky early drop and then shattered faster? From this, I would not generally infer that one is "better" than the other. But it is still plausible

- In the stress test video on the JerryRigEverything YT channel, you can tell that the back is much easier to shatter than normal. That does kind of make this seem suspicious.

Whatever. That’s what Apple care is for.

- "Yeah, just pay for another subscription service because the build quality of your new $1000+ flagship device is so shit it will shatter if you drop it and you'll need to replace the whole thing"
