Motorola Droid Turbo 2 Survives 900 ft Drop With Only a Cracked Corner [Video]

[dgstorm]

Some YouTube Videographers got hold of a Motorola Droid Turbo 2 and decided to put the supposedly shatterproof "Shattershield" technology to the test. They strapped the thing to a small drone, and rigged a method to drop the phone remotely. They flew the drone to a height of 275 meters (900 feet) and let it go.

Amazingly, the phone survived the impact and was still fully functional, with only a dented-in crack in one corner. Obviously, this is an unrealistic height for the average person to drop their phone, so suffice it to say, the phone should easily hold up to a drop from a regular height. In fact, it is likely the phone would be just fine even if dropped from 2-3 stories, so it could be the perfect phone to own if you do construction/roofing for a living.

And that is why I bought my dad a Droid Turbo 2, and recommended it for a friend. For those who have smashed screens, this is a welcome addition.

The fact that the smashed corner also worked and didn't cause the rest of the screen to stop working is to me the most impressive part.

Didn't I already share this somewhere before?!?

I think so...I think I asked if you were going to try it with your new phone. It's always fun to watch it a second time though.

I was more impressed with the Drone than a phone, that thing was very stable at high altitude.

Yep... It looks like you shared it previously here: 300 YD Fall | Android Forum at DroidForums.net

Sorry, but it's impossible for us at HQ to see every single post @PereDroid! It seemed like a cool news story to me, so I shared it too. Just be flattered that we think alike.

You have great taste in Android related entertainment and info. It's one of the reasons I like promoting your posts to the front page from time to time.

Good to share with the masses that don't hang in the Turbo forums.

Which material for the back did you end up getting?

 

[PereDroid]

Black Soft Grip. I like it better then the Ballistic Nylon.
