Using all iPhones to compare them is not always fun

iPhones are made of metal and glass so they will eventually crack. Someone went beyond the usual drop tests and actually bought all iPhone models released by Apple just to see how they survive a 4-feet drop. As expected, the screens cracked. 

The first test shows a side drop for each device. Most of them got some scoffs and scratches, but nothing major. The iPhone 4, which has a glass back panel, got that cracked and the new iPhone 6 wanted to be a star, and when dropped, it fell down on its screen, not on its side so we've seen the cracked display right away.

The second test for each phone was a face down screen drop. As expected, none of them survived, but all iPhones were working fine, with a few small exceptions.

His second video involves a hammer versus iPhone 6. If you have enough money, you can afford to break stuff.

And last, we have a nice video that compares all iPhone generations to date. This time there are no hammers included, only some really neat iPhone testing. The uploader puts them side by side to test how fast they boot, load a page or go through benchmarks. The surprising bit from all of that is that the iPhone 5s seems to be a little bit faster than the newer ones when it comes to some operations.
