Whichever category you fall into, the new durability testing video gives you the answers you seek. This article will take a quick dive into details from the video and things fans and prospective buyers should take to mind. Let’s now find out if the new device from Nothing is durable or if it is a flimsy device that can easily fall apart.
Details on the durability of the new Nothing Phone (2) smartphone
When it comes to the design of this new device, things stay quite similar. However, the glyph interface changes its pattern and the selfie camera changes its position. But how does it stand when it comes to the durability department?
Well, answers are already available as JerryRigEverything put the device through certain tests. The tests include scratching, heat, and bending to push it to its limit. How do you think the Nothing Phone (2) holds up after being put through all these tests?
The first test was the scratch test, focusing on the screen of this device. To do this he used various grades of sharpness from grade 2 to 10. Surprisingly, the device holds up resisting every scratch up until grade 6 where some scratches can be seen on the device’s screen.
Moving over to the flat sides, the Nothing Phone (2) fails the durability test by scratching up badly. Fans might wonder who exactly would want to deliberately scratch up their device. The scratch test gives you an idea of how this new device holds up when put under certain circumstances.
To protect the sides of this device, a user might need to rely on a protective case to prevent scratches. On the device’s rear glass, it holds up well by resisting scratches even on the camera bumps. For the flame test, the screen gets a burn mark, but it does not affect the display.
For the bend test, the Nothing Phone (2) holds itself together, resisting any cracks. However, you can see a notable gap in the rear end after more pressure is applied to the device while bending it. But the screen stays intact and withstands any damage even after being bent.
This test proves that the Nothing Phone (2) is a pretty durable device. It also packs a punch when it comes to performance, which is a solid point for buyers. Lastly, this device is available for sale in the US and might appeal to the younger generation.
