Transcript

I am not going to do a bend test on the iPhone. I am going to do a bend test. I am at the point in the teardown where I am about to remove the inner display, so it is going to probably break anyway, but I want to see how much pressure it can take. This is 10% of my force. This is 50% of my force. It is holding up, but it is definitely bending. I think we will go up to 60% and and call it, because I am scared. Somehow the frame is still straight, but not going to lie, I think JerryRig is going to snap this thing in half.
