Apple showed off the stress test lab and tough iPhone durability tests

Apple showed YouTube blogger Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) its testing labs. The company even allowed him to film some tough iPhone stress tests for durability.

John Ternus, the corporation’s senior vice president of hardware development, told the guest that the company can test 10,000 devices of a certain model before releasing it to the market. In addition, if developers notice a new scenario of dangerous smartphone use in real life, it is included in the test list.

In the lab, phones are subjected to temperature fluctuations, vibrations and water, including immersion tests, low-pressure jets and dousing from a full-blown fire hose. Special attention is paid to drop resistance.
