The Samsung Galaxy S23 series was dropped from 6 feet, or about 1.8 meters, above the ground in the most recent Allstate drop test video. When compared to the previous Galaxy S22, how durable is the Galaxy S23?
The latest S-Series lineup from Samsung was launched with a focus on sustainability. The most environmentally friendly phones that Samsung has ever released feature recycled glass and ocean-bound plastic.
Allstate Protection Plans showcased the drop tests performed on all three models in a YouTube video. They determine phone durability and whether or not the use of sustainable materials reduced their susceptibility to accidental damage.
For your information, the front and back screens of the Samsung Galaxy S23 phones are Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2. And they contain recycled PET film made in part from ocean-bound plastic and an average of 22% pre-consumer recycled content.
Consequently, the Galaxy S23, S23+, and S23 Ultra were found to be as long-lasting as the Galaxy S22. The S23 Ultra was found to be the most long-lasting of the three.
The front and back panels of the S23 and S23+ were damaged in the video, but the S23 Ultra fared better, with only a few small cracks in some places.
