    Yeah that article seems it’s written to convince new buyers how the phone can’t break, but anyone who owned phones knows that they don’t break by putting heavy things on the display. :)

        They could have hooked the phone up to a windscreen wiper motor (a high torque motor with a crank arm) and left it to run for a few hours, that would have given them about 10,000 open/close cycles. But no, it’s “let’s hang a 5kg weight off it and use the phone as a bit of a hammer”.
