iPhone 16 Pro: Major Drawbacks Revealed

Published on

With the release of the iPhone 16 Pro, preliminary drop tests present possible issues regarding the ultra-thin bezels of the device. Despite Apple praising its new iPhone’s refined design and improved Ceramic Shield screen shield, early assessments hint that these slim bezels could negatively impact durability.

Early Drop Tests Raise Concerns

It should be highlighted that while drop tests provide useful insights, they’re not exact science. A myriad of factors including landing angle and surface type influence the results. Nevertheless, these initial findings may raise concerns for consumers looking to purchase Apple’s premium new product.

Ceramic Shield Offers Some Protection

Despite an early fracture in the famous Kohl’s test, the iPhone 16 Pro’s screen demonstrated resilience in later drops, attributed to Apple’s superior Ceramic Shield. Initially, a severe corner crack rendered the phone unusable; however, the screen managed to withstand further damage unlike the widespread ‘spider web’ cracks prevalent on the iPhone 15 Pro.

A separate drop test conducted by EverythingApplePro found that the iPhone 16 Pro Max survived several drops from up to 20 feet, indicating that results can vary widely between tests. In some instances, a hard reset was able to breathe life back into what appeared to be defunct iPhones.

A Case is Still Your Best Bet

Tests might suggest the iPhone 16 Pro is delicate. Yet, drop tests don’t mirror daily use. The average user won’t see this severity of damage unless their luck runs thin. The ultra-fine edges could be a vulnerability. A safety case can be wise for anyone wanting to protect their substantial investment.

Finally, the iPhone 16 Pro presents a striking model with well-built performance. However, a good case could provide the needed tranquility for day by day use.
