Great, no non-sense, straight to the point, informative, quality video.

still rocking my 1st gen SE in 2021. No plans on upgrading anytime soon, or until the new SE becomes cheap enough for me to get lmao

Your videos are always of such quality and are completely non biased which makes them unique. We need more people like you on the internet

Holding my iPhone SE saying “don’t go near this man!!!”

The camera glass and home button are actually covered in saphire glass and not "regular" glass. Saphire is the second hardest transparent material known to man, and it's harder than sand, so this makes them basically scratch-proof, which is great. Unfortunately, they are more prone to shattering because of their hardness, so make sure to not drop your iPhone SE on its back.

Came here from the "how to replace the screen video" to learn about the home button and bend test. I keep mine in a life proof, and would be lying if I said I'd never tried to snap it in half. It bends exactly as you've mentioned, but works perfectly still. The battery hasn't heated up any or lost any life. The screen only broke when I Gronk spiked it at the floor.

Holding my I phone SE saying “I will never treat you like this” 😂😭♥️

I'd like to see a DTEK50 durability test. One of the things I've noticed you don't cover in these tests is shatter resistance, as some displays are more prone to shatter (I can throw my z10 against a concrete repeatedly and the screen won't shatter).

Love your durability tests jerry! Keep up the good work! However I was curious about one thing in particular concerning the iPhone se which you seemed to have missed in this test, and that is the part where you test the earpiece grill and tell us what material it's made of. If you could please respond and let me know if the grill is metal or not I would really appreciate your effort! I just got my iPhone se and I don't want to go sticking anything into the earpiece to test this myself.

It looks durable so I thought it would be. So far the phone is in perfect condition for me for 2 years but it broke pretty well here.

That's a good phone for durability. Thanks for the review, my mother was thinking about it and this is adding to the very very high approval.

I got the same phone and I’ve had it for about a year it’s held up well and I run out of storage sometimes but I can easily delete some pictures I don’t need or delete some apps I don’t use and it goes down over all a pretty good phone I’d recommend it 👍🏻

Holding my iPhone se thinking like I will never treat you like this😂

okay, I gotta say this because it bugs me in all the other smartphone videos out there. I love how this video was really short and how you didn't babble for minutes and minutes before getting to the test but started right away. And your ways of testing are also really nice. I like how you had the different scales for the scratch test and explained a little bit about the burn test, since that is not the most usual test there is for smartphones. Very time efficient and helpful!!!!

I love how he just gets straight to the point!!

According to the way the iPhone se looks......it wont break that easily

really love your videos bro! they are one of the best out there. They are really simple and give you a lot of info! keep up the work and and you are gonna be a famous person.

WoW! How much power does there be in this little phone, bigger than what we believe!

What I like about you is your straight forward attitude no lame talks just the review and no wastage of time that's why I subscribed you nd watches all your videos(only smartphones tbh)...👍 But why aren't you doing bend/scratch test on "honor8" I'm eagerly waiting for that

Hi Jerry, thanks for your videos they help me a lot. I have recently re-shelled an SE and everything works fine apart from 3G and 4G do not appear to be as good as they used to be? Could you suggest anything I could look at?

damn, mighty interesting since i bought the phone a few hours ago - Now i know that the bend by the minus button might be a weakness ;) the camera "glass" might not be as "exposed" to scratches as i initially thought, always best to KNOW and not think something (Y) good video !

2:05 justamente o que aconteceu como meu IPhone 5S. O meu estava no bolso de traz.. ai fazendo esforço no trabalho acabou amassando do mesmo jeito do vídeo.

This channel deserves way more subscribers than it has! I've been watching you for a while, and you make great videos. Keep up the good work. I hope to see you hit 1,000,000+ subs one day!

iPhone SE is one of the best iPhones ever made!

It hurts me to see brand new gorgeous iPhones being tortured😭😂

This is the most informative SE destruction test of them all. Good job

Did you try to apply some pressure on the back camera lens to see if it can be easily pushed inside? This happened on my old iPhone 5, when I accidentaly applied a little pressure on camera lens cover with my finger (like the adhesive would give up or something). And I am wondering if iPhone SE is also vulnerable to this (if it has the same design around the camera at all)? If anyone else has/had the similar issue, let me know, thanks.

I just got an iPhone se. I got it for $90 refurbished. Didn’t come in a box tho. Still a really great phone. It doesn’t lag even tho it’s 2021. I love how it feels, and it’s a great option for kids as well. Maybe the iPod touch would be the best for kids, but the se is also a good value for the money.

excelente video me parece que en gran medida es gracias a tus pruebas de resistencia que mejoran los diseños al menos los de apple XD

For my SE, a small area beside the camera broke and chipped off. But it works just fine

I'd actually like to see tablets on this channel too.

How does this bend compare to the 6? Big reason for me getting rid of my 6 is the bending... Has bent twice and had to replace the screen once. Luckily it's simple enough to bend back and had Apple replace the screen and they didn't notice the bend, but definitely an inconvenience.

Nearly impossible to scratch the lens cover and home button. Both are covered by sapphire glass starting in iPhone 5S.

Man! It's frustrating to watch this dream phone till now getting bended!I wish i had one!

You should test some older phones.. that would be kinda cool, like the Galaxy S3/S4, or the iPhone 4/4s. As it would be sorta interesting too see how the older models hold up against their counter parts.

Been using the iPhone SE for a good while now, and it’s still going strong.

Thanks man i was about to bend my iPhone SE

you gave me almost a heart attack...but thanks for one thing to let us know the limit of this beast and how rough we can be with this

Both the camera and home button use Sapphire Crystal... Would be interesting if you scratched the camera lens with the picks though, to see how scratch resistant they are

I believe that the one, small crack doesn’t matter and that it passes the bend test. It didn’t effect the performance and, considering most people will have cases to prevent that, is insignificant. I may be biased as someone who owns an SE, but I stand by it.

The fact the he can bend this phone means he has reached peak strength.

Still my favorite iPhone design. If I wasn't on Samsung I would've gotten this when it was released.

This channel is awesome, actually profesionally testing and not having a title like "can an iphone 6 plus survive diamond saw after 100 feet fall and burned"

Hi Jerry, thanks for documenting your tests. I have seen your durability reviews on the iphone se and the iphone 6s durability tests, but it is not clear to me which one resisted more in the bend test? which of these to is more durable in terms of bend and drops? thanks in advance!

SE is the only iPhone I want to have. No matter how fancy their new phones are... Hi! Mr. Zacks will you also try & test the durability of those affordable smartphones?

I’m watching this on my gen 1 SE and seeing the bend test gave me mild anxiety.

Have you taken it apart yet? I am curious how many of the parts are the same as the 5s. Especially where the Touch ID flex is. I hope it's like the 6 series and not the 5s style!

When all phones had a headphone jack.

I remember I had that phone (same colour and all) as my first phone and LOVED it I was offered a new one like 3 times but always turned it down. One day I was chasing after my friend and it fell onto the concrete. I was not worried because even tho it did not have a screen protector or protective case on I had it for years and had dropped it several times (One time I even dropped off of sledge hammer at Canada’s wonderland and it d8d not even have a scratch) anyways I picked up my phone to see it had completely shattered I was heart broken. I still have the phone to this day I keep it in a box in my room. I always liked smaller phones but decided that if I was going to get a new phone anyway I might as well get a new one so I ended up getting a rose gold iPhone XS I could have gotten the X, XR or XS Max but I got the XS for the smaller feel to it. Thanks for reading :)

Love these reviews!

The phone won't pass the bend test. Yes, nothing major happened within four seconds of bending, however this happened to my iPhone 5S and the screen eventually began to separate from the frame, causing a whole flux of issues, including dead pixel lines, areas of no capacitive feedback, and several cases not fitting the bent frame. The bent frame will get ya!

3 years later and I’m watching this on a SE

I just love this phone, shame that Apple won't be supporting the phone software wise!

Watching this on an iPhone SE. if it continues to act like it is right now I will do all these tests 10 times over to it

Been here since 8k and still love the content. keep up the good job!

"I had more phones than anyone in the world and I hope mom is proud of me..." Had me dying 😂😂😂

Hey, Zack, on later phones you also test speaker covers. What is speaker cover made from in iPhone SE?

Hi Jerry I’m using SE space gray with a slight bent at the same spot as yours.😀👍🏾

any measurement on the bend test? you might be stronger on certain day over other day.

Me: watches this with my iPhone SE Also me:realizes that my phone is also “hurt” at the volume button (btw my brother had this phone before so he did that lol)

What is interesting is I'm watching this video on an iPhone SE.

Okay dude. Your tests are logical unlike most channel who seems to do it as if smartphones raped their family members. Keep up the quality content man.

I bended mine after 3days. Despite the self restarts when im charging it, it still works just fine ;)

JRE: puts the white tape on the screen before the scratch test Me: those days when *smartphones used to be small*

I think when the metal breaks that means it fails the bend test

Whoops, Wrong SE, meant the other one. 2020 Apple be wildin.

When people destroy things you can't afford

Ah... Bend Test - Scratch Test - Burn Test will always be my favorite. =)

I got this phone on contract. thank you for doing this, it seems like a decent phone for the general bumps and scrapes.

This phone starts to scratch at a lvl 6, with even DEEPER grooves at a level 7

I faced physical pain while watching this 😩 that phone is beautiful I can't even

I absolutely love my iPhone SE which comes handy as my spare phone

I haven't kept up with my research but wasn't Apple using sapphire glass for the home button and camera lens? Could we get a scratch test using the picks on those?

These videos are great, would love to see you do this test on the Alcatel Idol 4s windows 10 phone. I just picked one up and I cant find any video doing a destruction test.

Pretty sure the camera lens and the touch ID sensor are made of sapphire, that's why they don't scratch easily

I love jerry rig! It’s 2019 and my SE is black, has an otter box case and everything...it has no damage at all! I’ve had it since 2016

LMAO !!! The part with the mother being extremely proud nearly made me spill orange juice all over my laptop.

I saw the volume then went to see how long go this was 😂 our volume buttons aren’t like that anymore for sure XD! 3 years later. Almost 4 years bc it’s December 24th almost Christmas!

Jerry: let's give a tumbs up for Apple Me: *-gives a thumbs up-*

I just bought one on offer for $70 and it works great, I'm currently using a s8+ but it's great as a backup phone especially with the i0s12

I'm really glad I found this channel! 😊

The bend test gave me such anxiety lol

nossa cara, e eu aqui lutando pra comprar um para o meu filho! 😭

Once a wise man said "Scratches at level 6, deeper grooves at level 7"

Im proud to hold this phone right now in my hand😂😂

This is such a cute phone , probably why people buy this phone for. Handy Dandy , No-nonsense, less disturbing than Large Phones , Super Compact Lovable phone. I hope Zack that they bring a New Successsor to this Model. :)

I loved how you just casually said ‘Im pretty sure my mother is extremely proud” with no emotion at all

Good work so many years! The differences are obvious and the quality the same

great work jerry keep it up :)

Quem me dera ter um desses😓😓

Who’s here in 2020 and the iPhone SE 2nd gen is out

As an Android user, that was very satisfying.

Okay if the IPhone SE is that durable then it must’ve taken a lot of force for my bookbag to nearly break mine

Little Timmy- Where is my phone? Zach- With time the pixels turn off from the extreme heat, but then come back on again...

I subscribed because I love your destructive habits. Keep up the good work man. I love your channel.

Felt proud to be an iPhone SE owner

Jerry: My mom is so proud of me Me: My mom is so gonna kill me

So it looks like it's using the older aluminum, what about the glass? Dual ion exchange like the 6S, or is it the same part as the 5S used? And they switched the home button and camera glass to sapphire at some point, may be sapphire rather than glass.

The Touch ID sensor is sapphire crystal. The camera might be too, not sure about the SE in particular.

I got this phone when it came out. Now I use the 8 Plus on a daily. The SE broke and I couldn’t be bothered fixing it again after the 3rd time.
