The Nexus 6p is a Joke

[rcarlos243]

Everything you ever wanted to know about the durability of Huawei's Nexus 6p can be found in this video...

Is this the one that LG made?

Sorry, I don't follow Nexus phones.

 

 

Nevermind, Huaqei made the 6P.

 

 

Guess, they didn't learn my Apple's mistake.

Using an metal body with not enough reinforcement.

I am not gonna be bending my phone. 

[ShadowCaptain]

Because some twat snapping his phone in half means the phone is a joke... hell the iPhone 6 is meant to be bendable, yet everyone I know, and everyone in my family who has one, is perfectly fine - its unlikely to effect NORMAL use

 

That said, it does look weak, I wish it was stronger - these are the corners companies cut to make money on devices

Erm did you even read? it literally says the manufacturer is Huawei in the first line of the post

And thats why you don't have Hawaiiu build you a phone. #CheapPhones

[Adriel]

Don't know if the bend test was necessary with that amount of force. But the scratch test was interesting.

Ive had a temp budget Huawei phone in the past, it was really well built (£100 G300)

 

but this is really bad even for a cheap chinese brand!!!!

[Lays]

intentionally trying to destroy or damage the phone means it's shit mfw

Huawei phones are built like fucking tanks. This is most definitely Google skimping on the design.

[Sharif]

That's what iPhone 6+ users said..

It bends in your pocket.

I can see issues there =S

[qwertywarrior]

wow .... i did not expect this

 

both LG phones were tanks especially the nexus 4 . it was thick as F

 

didnt expect this from huwawei though cutting corners i guess

i wonder how the 5x fared

Huawei themselves wouldn't cut shit, Google engineers designed this.

Another stupid video of a idiot destroying a perfectly good phone for views...

And mine never bent.

They still built it, they could have put up some opposition so not to tarnish their name

[Commander_Z]

these bend tests are stupid

[ZetZet]

They still built it, they could have put up some opposition so not to tarnish their name

probably yea, but still not entirely their fault.

[ShadowCaptain]

probably yea, but still not entirely their fault.

 

sure shared responsibility, now while I think bend tests are a little silly, after the whole iphone fiasco, you would think manufactures would be prudent not to repeat mistakes

 

its lazy, its cost cutting and its not good for consumers or the brand image

[RedRound2]

whoa that's pretty bad. But I would like to see a few more videos before coming to a conclusion especially the scratch test

[Benjals]

It's not even the bend that is concerning, it's the fact that it cracked when he touched it after a few scratches.

Good job I've never dropped a phone and don't intend to. Things like this just don't apply to people who are careful with there mobile devices.

What? nobody INTENDS to drop their phone, its called an accident, it does not matter how careful you are, anybody is capable of dropping their phone by accident

While true most of the time, he bent that thing like it was a 1 subject paper notebook. Even ignoring the weak glass and back, the phone is not built well. 

[Castdeath97]

Neither did mine but there were still lots of cases of it happening. And everyone is like "no that won't happen to mine"

And if it does they still replace it for you.

I can confirm, I dropped my Nexus about twice a day for 2 years, still works. (I'm the clumsiest person you'll ever see with a phone.)
