The “titanium” iPhone 15 Pro was tested using a knife and a hammer. The vaunted titanium frame turned out to be a weak point
The TechRax YouTube channel released a crash test of the iPhone 15 Pro smartphone. To test the device for durability, the author used a knife and a hammer.
And it was the knife test that turned out to be the most difficult for the iPhone 15 Pro, and in fact a failure. The fact is that the newest titanium frame gets scratched very quickly even from light touches. And if you directly hit it with a knife, deep scratches remain. The author notes that the stainless steel frame in previous iPhones was much stronger.
The second test was with a hammer, and here the glass was hit hard. But, unlike the frame, everything here is predictable: the glass even withstood quite strong impacts. In the end, of course, it broke, but these were the blows with which nails are hammered in; not a single protective smartphone glass can withstand this.
What’s the result? The reviewer believes that the iPhone 15 Pro is an excellent smartphone, but you just don’t need to carry it in your pocket with your keys: it is advisable that the delicate titanium frame does not come into contact with sharp objects. Another option is to carry your smartphone in a case.

Huawei has finally defeated American sanctions. Nova 12 Ultra will be the first smartphone with the Chinese Kirin SoC and a 5G modem
Due to American sanctions, Huawei was unable to produce smartphones with 5G modems for a long time – the company was simply cut off from supplies of both the necessary components and ready-made single-chip systems with integrated 5G support. But now everything will change: Huawei has its own SoC with a 5G modem, and the first smartphone based on it will be the Nova 12 Ultra.
This model, designated by catalog number ADA-AL00U, has already been certified in China, and the description specifically indicates 5G support. And the well-known insider Digital Chat Station revealed additional details.
According to him, the new mid-level Huawei smartphone (the Nova line is one of these) will have a Kirin 9000s SoC with a 5G modem. It will differ from the regular version of Kirin 9000s by a slightly lower (only 130 MHz) frequency of the large core. The Kirin 9000s configuration, we recall, looks like this: a large core with a frequency of 2.49 GHz, three medium cores with a frequency of 2.15 GHz and four small cores with a frequency of 1.53 GHz. According to rumors, the premiere of the Nova 12 line will take place in December.
Previously, Digital Chat Station was the first to accurately report the specifications and release dates of Redmi K50 and Xiaomi 12.
