Apple Watch Sport Drop Test & Durability Scratch Test By EverythingApplePro E A P

What's up guys everything Apple Pro here and today, I want to do a durability test on Apple's brand-new Apple Watch, Sport Edition, so we're going to be doing several tests to see how this thing is. Going to hold up in the long run a year from now is your Apple Watch. Going to survive everything life has to throw at it, so we're going to be doing some scratch tests. Even a drop test basically see how much impact this display can take before shattering, and this is by the way the ion strength & glass. Apple has chosen to replace the sapphire glass in higher-end models with ion strengths and glass use on the iPhone 6. In order to maintain a higher shatter resistance, as you guys know, sapphire is better for scratch resistance.

So we're going to see how this thing holds up to scratches not only the display, also, the body, and by the way this is the sport 38 millimeters, the one that survived the water test the other day. Surprisingly, these things are more durable than apples letting on about them. Let's go ahead and run through some tests and see how this thing holds up to scratches drops, basically what life has to throw at it. Alright. So here I've got an assortment of screws nails, just a bunch of bolts and metal bits.

Basically, I want to do an accelerated scratch test. The display on the Apple Watch. Sport isn't geared and very well towards scratches and in day to day usage, you're going to bump it on things, you're, going to scratch. This thing the band itself and I want to see in an accelerated scratch test. How well this thing is: going to hold up to a bunch of metal.

You know going at it from many angles and over the months is this thing: going to look just as good as when you got out of the box. Is it going to hold up well to time? Alright. So here it is it's in setup mode. Basically, when you take it out of the box, this is what it's gonna look like. Overall, 38 millimeters in very good cosmetic shapes brand new, go ahead and set this guy in here couple bolts and things on their right seal this guy up about 10 seconds I think should do and let me put it face down all right.

I should be adequate. Oh, it's dirty! So let's take a look, see how this thing fared. So the band looks like it. Man this thing absorbs dirt very well: the sport band anyways. It's going to need some water to clean it.

Let's take a closer look see if there are any scratches looks like the glass actually did crack right here. Wow, it's a really brittle on the sport edition. This is actually made of a different material on the more expensive versions, but there's a lot of scratches on the sides here. Actual borders didn't hold up very well. The band is very dirty.

There's an actual glass crack down here and the display has a scratch that I can see right here. Other than that there's a minor scratch. He'll look pretty well nah I, don't see anything else. The body itself- and this thing is pretty scratched up- looks like it's. You know several months old already, and I'm sure the band will clean up nice, but it does attract quite a lot of dirt.

Overall, though, I am pretty impressed, there's a pretty extreme condition, pretty extreme scratch test, and it held up very well and just to give you guys a little closer look. There is a chip in the actual glass backing which is kind of disappointing I, wonder if it'll interfere with the heart rate sensor, we'll test that at the end, but anyways overall, though not too bad, alright I just wanted to see how this band would clean up. If the dirt was ingrained in it wow it's actually tougher than I thought looks like it has impact to the color a little in my experience using even Apple, iPhone cases, the leather ones and the soft silicone they get dirty over time, and it's very hard to clean them looks like it's the same with this when it scratches the dirt gets in there, and it's really hard to remove it. Alright, so I do understand it's not very common occurrence to drop a watch. I mean it's touched, your wrist, but I want to see how the screen will take shock.

So it's very likely you'll hit the Apple Watch on something I've used the watches in the past, and you know it is very common to you know, bump your hand on something and hit it. So I want to do the same. However, the only way I can do that accurately is to drop it. If I were to swing my hand, it would swing with varying amounts of force. I couldn't really tell you but gravity.

You know, it'll do the trick for us, so I'm gonna, try and drop it face down and see how it holds up. You're going to do a couple of those first, let's do back end so to test that little heart rate sensor. Okay, so this is about waist height. You know where you'd be applying the watch to your wrist and say slipped, and it fell okay. So here we go waist height drop in three two one, okay I got to tell you this backing.

It takes scratches in very well, so there's a nick, probably from the concrete right there and that's from the previous test. The coating is actually coming off of the glass interesting but did not crack. Let's try the front end test now is working just to show you guys, whoops, alright, so let's go ahead and perform a waist-high Apple Watch drop test. So this is about the height. Where you'd be applying the watch to your wrist and say it falls out slips of your grasp and lands face-first and by the way this is the Sport Edition.

So again, this thing is geared towards the shadow resistance, not so much for scratch resistance. The Apple Watch Edition will yield a different result anyways. So here we go. Let's go ahead and drop this guy, who is a waist height three two one: okay, not bad! So there's a scuff right there on the aluminum border. Let's go ahead and drop this with one more time see if it can hold up, try and get it more centered.

Here we go in three two one, not bad, so I can visibly see right here that there are scratches from the impact onto the concrete from about waist height border around the display gets chipped easily. Overall, though well I'm surprised scratches appear on the screen from where it dropped, but it's holding up well, the back doesn't seem quite as durable as the front it does scratch easily. But of course, this thing is geared more towards shadow resistance. So why not? Let's go ahead and do one more drop just to get the final, conclusive results so waist-high putting it on, and it falls out. Okay, it looks like I hit the other corner now, so the glass has chipped right there in the corner.

It does chip easily does scratch easily, but it does not shatter. So after three drops waist height, this thing is still working, and I'm. Pretty impressed looks good, but I have one final test for this guy. How will it fare when we drag it behind a car? Alright, so we're going to see how this thing fares, if it's being dragged across the road from a vehicle, we're going to go ahead and tie it to it and see just how durable this thing really is how many scratches and bumps this thing could finally take before giving it a shattering either the back or the front anyways we go it's about ten feet behind the car cut this guy. So it's here alright! So here it is.

Let's go ahead and set this guy down. Oh my gosh, the back has held up pretty well, could see some really deep scratches in there. Let's try a face down on the front and I thought it'd flip over, but it did. It was the same thing ouch dirty, so the front looks to be in working condition: wow, that's not that bad I thought it'd be worse. Yeah, there's a lot of deep scratches on it, but they're, not so long, they're, really short the aluminum borders, man they're there Shaw I mean they're so scratched this thing and let's go ahead and set this guy up, and I'm going to see if the heart rate sensor still works.

After all of this abuse, but overall display is working, you know it is scratched, but it's so usable after all, this abuse I'm surprised. It's still surviving alright, so here I have the bull watch. You just wanted to get it in a little more detail to show you guys the scratches a true extent of dropping it, dragging it behind your car and having it in a case full of bolts. So the display does work. You know, there's no difference there, but the band is filthy.

It's going to be hard to clean it up, and I'm, not so sure that all the dirt will get out of there. But overall the display is pretty scratched up. The Main, strengthened glass doesn't do very well when it comes to scratches and the backing the coating. The laminate is coming off. It hasn't cracked or anything, but it's coming off in many places.

I'm going to go ahead and see if that works. The heart rate sensor, but overall, pretty rough condition does a work, though so here it is so it saying its measuring if this works I'll be very surprised after being dropped. Dunked in water sitting there all day dragged behind a car, so it looks like hasn't worked there. Maybe it's because it's not tight enough. I'm gonna, try and put it one notch and yeah.

It looks like yeah I think it might be. Busted I cannot get my heart rate to be red. I'm gonna, try pressing it in right here, one final time, but I don't think it'll work. Maybe it's because I don't know: oh wow, there we go, so it does work, but I have to press it in really hard. I'm I was pressing him pretty hard, so that actually doesn't work, but I don't know if, for some reason it wasn't working very well just holding it there.

So there we go guys. It has held up despite all the damage and scratches to drop tests, and overall I would trust this thing to daily usage. I mean a year for nothing. This thing is still gonna. Looks perfect.

Alright, so thanks for watching guys would really appreciate it. As you can see, the app whose can certainly take a lot of torture from scratches to drops to water. This thing is very durable. At least the sport edition I'm curious to see how the Apple Watch Edition will hold up in comparison to this, but overall good job, Apple, very good durability. Anyways thanks for watching guys have a great day and enjoy your Apple watches.

If you have one piece.
