Galaxy S7 Active vs. Galaxy S7 Drop Test!

We drop test the new Samsung Galaxy S7 Active from AT&T and compare it side by side with the regular Galaxy S7. Samsung says the S7 Active is shatter resistant, so we put that claim to the test #phonebuffstyle!

Galaxy S7 Active vs. Galaxy S7 Drop Test!

Software updates will kill this phone not drop tests.

A nokia 3310 would have broken the block, drilled into the earth and made it's way to the center of the earth

[nicn]

There is only one phone that can beat the S7 Active, the Nokia 3310.

[minhbu]

a comparison vs the s6 active makes so much more sense

[ShellymanStudios]

Galaxy S7 Active Vs. Droid Turbo 2 please.

[abdkhall]

wow S7 active this insane..so durability..good job samsung

[DannyRice]

The definition of insanity is doing something over and over expecting different results -> 50 drops

[MuddinNYC]

The s7 active is the best phone ever made so far. The huge battery plus s7 specs makes it a winner but Samsung went extra and built it like a tank.

[lunaticleone]

I mean... this test is basically testing if your case can actually be a case..

[ankurkapoor]

The biggest problems with S7 Active that nobody is talking about:
1. You CANNOT do mobile Hotspot tethering. AT&T won't let you.
2. Bootloader is locked. You can't root or make any software changes.
3. Comes with TONS of AT&T bloatware that keeps on interfering with normal usage. And no, it cannot be disabled either.

as shown in JerryRigEverything's video, it has a plastic screen which obviously is extremely unlikely to shatter. however, it is really prone to scratching, while a gorilla glass 4 glass screen will shatter but is more resistant to scratches

[genghisGian]

you guys gotta do some drop tests with rugged cases, id love to see how the active compares against an s7 in a otterbox or something

[crimsonstang]

I love the way the phones bounced on the bottom drop, so satisfying!

[KaiserEY]

Do a test of S7 with cases. It would be nice to show the durability of the s7 inside a case

[chayshai]

Thanks for doing this!! I hate drop tests that are like 20 ft tall or higher because that ain't realistic to me... But this tells me to get a phone case as soon as I buy the s7 on Thursday because I drop phones all the time.

[simongarcia]

Damn man I just got my GS7 and I got a case for it before I even got the phone!
If the Active series wasn't an AT&T exclusive I would have gotten the Active because that's impressive, although does the finger print scanner still work?

[randompeople]

Regular S7 :
Waterproof but 1 drop = dead

[thockyslush]

"You're ruining our block samsung" hahahaha

[SiuleungWong]

This channel has grown so much! From 10, 000 to 558, 000 wow

[SpaceG]

Unfortunately the only people who can benefit from this durable device are AT&T customers here in the USA
