The most recent machine to get the Nelson remedy is the iPhone 15 Professional Max, the biggest and costliest iPhone that Apple began delivery simply final Friday.
After describing the brushed titanium and the etched again glass as “tremendous cool,” Nelson takes his scratching instruments to the Ceramic Protect of the 6.7-inch iPhone 15 Professional Max, and discovers that the show holds up nicely total.
Subsequent Nelson grabs his trusty field cutter, which he makes use of to scrape away on the selfie digicam (first wince). Protected by the Ceramic Protect, it seems to face up nicely.
After that, the field cutter is enthusiastically dragged down the facet the of the iPhone 15 Professional Max (second wince), which, hardly surprisingly, takes off the blue bodily vapor deposition (PVD) coating, revealing the titanium body beneath.
Later, as is customary with Nelson’s sturdiness exams, a unadorned flame is put proper up towards the brand new iPhone’s show. After a lengthy burn, the show stays impressively intact.
To this point, so good. However then issues go badly flawed for the iPhone 15 Professional Max, as throughout Nelson’s unscientific stress take a look at wherein he customers his fingers and thumbs to bend the machine, the again glass show shatters, seemingly with out an excessive amount of effort (huge wince).
