When investing in any high-performance device, one of the first questions that comes to mind is: how durable is it really? The 789P has made a name for itself thanks to its powerful features and sleek design, but durability is where theory meets reality 789P. To put the 789P to the test, we conducted a series of drop tests and real-world durability checks to find out how well it holds up when things get rough.
Testing Conditions
To simulate real-world scenarios, we designed drop tests based on common accidents:
- Pocket-height drop (approximately 3 feet)
- Waist-height drop (around 4 feet)
- Shoulder-height drop (6 feet)
- Head-level drop (over 6 feet, simulating falling off a table or shelf)
- Corner impact drop
- Screen-first drop
All drops were performed on two surfaces: standard indoor flooring (vinyl/wood) and concrete Bắn Cá 789P. Each drop was repeated multiple times to ensure consistency in results.
Drop Test Results
1. Pocket-Height Drop (3 feet)
The 789P handled this drop with ease. No noticeable damage to the casing or screen. Minor scuffs were observed on the corners, but functionality remained unaffected.
2. Waist-Height Drop (4 feet)
On both surfaces, the 789P showed a bit more wear, particularly along the edges. On concrete, small chips were visible in the outer casing. However, the device powered on without issues and screen responsiveness was unchanged.
3. Shoulder-Height Drop (6 feet)
This height started to push the device’s limits. On wood flooring, the 789P absorbed the shock fairly well, with cosmetic scratches and a slightly loosened side panel. On concrete, the damage was more significant—visible cracks on the frame and a partial screen flicker that resolved after rebooting.
4. Head-Level Drop (Over 6 feet)
This simulated a more extreme accident, like the device falling from a shelf. On hardwood, the device suffered corner denting and the backplate partially popped out. On concrete, the screen cracked at the impact point, though touch functionality mostly remained intact. Despite visible damage, the core performance stayed solid.
5. Corner Impact Drop
Corners tend to be weak points in most devices. The 789P performed above average here, thanks to reinforced edge design. On concrete, some deformation occurred, but internal components remained unaffected in most tests.
6. Screen-First Drop
Here’s where most devices show their vulnerability. On indoor flooring, the screen remained intact with only minor scratches. On concrete, however, two out of three units experienced screen cracks ranging from hairline to significant shattering. That said, the digitizer stayed responsive, and the device still functioned in all cases.
Build Quality and Design Insights
The 789P is encased in a hybrid aluminum-polycarbonate shell that provides solid impact resistance without adding unnecessary bulk. The internal layout, including shock-dampening mounts around the battery and motherboard, helps protect vital components during drops. The screen uses strengthened glass, which improves durability, but as with any device, no glass is truly drop-proof when it meets concrete.
Final Verdict
The 789P proves to be a tough, reliable performer in the durability department. For everyday drops from pocket or desk height, it shrugs off damage with little more than cosmetic wear. Even in more extreme cases, it holds its ground remarkably well, especially when compared to similar devices in its class.
Of course, no device is invincible, and users who expect exposure to frequent drops or harsh environments should consider a protective case to extend the 789P’s lifespan. Still, if you’re wondering whether the 789P can handle the occasional fumble or fall, the answer is a confident yes. It’s built to endure.
