Apple's pricey iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max might be billed as having 'the most durable glass ever in a smartphone' but neither device could survive being dropped onto a pavement.
Drop tests from device insurer SquareTrade confirmed that both handsets would be damaged significantly if dropped onto cement from six feet.
While the glass on both phones shattered when dropped, the fate of the iPhone XS was worse in that the screen also malfunctioned.
Repairing these problems would cost the owner hundreds of dollars in replacement fees.
SquareTrade didn't stop there. Both phones were also placed in a 60-second tumble test, which caused hairline cracks, loose glass and scratches.
