  Just two weeks ago we presented you the first extreme resistance tests for iPhone 6 screen, and today we have a continuation of them. In the two videos presented in this article, iPhone 6 screen he is destroyed using an arrow, but first of all we are shown how vulnerable he is to scratches made using emery.

  If you wonder why this type of material is used to test screens, well the reason is quite simple: because it is capable of scratching the screen iPhone 6, while keys, knives, etc., cannot do it. sapphire it is harder than the materials used to manufacture the previously mentioned objects, so it must be scratched with harder materials, the sandpaper leaving a multitude of scratches on it, but also on the Gorilla Glass in iPhone 5S.

  Although the panel, supposed to be from Sapphire, for iPhone 6 it resists this type of scratches better than Gorilla Glass, the sapphire used for iPhone 5S Home button it has a higher degree of resistance, so now it is being discussed whether the sapphire used for the panel is pure or not. If this front panel is not made of pure sapphire but only has a lamination done, then the result is as normal as possible.

  The above tests proved without a doubt that sapphire glass is very hard and can withstand even a "torture" produced by emery, but an arrow can destroy it at any time.
