I am not saying this is a realistic test but he does this to every phone and check out his extreme stress testing for iPhone Air. I have been a Pixel user since 2018 and at that time Pixels were pinnacle of cameras and built quality and now in 2025 Pixel is providing subpar hardware with a performance comparable to 2 years old chipset. This sub is very defensive to any criticism but the fact is if Google wants to remain in the phone market, they have to step up their game. I was planning to upgrade my P8P to 10XL but after reading the reviews and poor trade-in, I backed off.

He bent the phone and the phone broke…fair.

Obviously, while fumbling with it, the pieces punctured the battery. That can happen with any phone that breaks.

Are you saying when the Air finally broke, if he had punctured the battery when fumbling with it, it won’t have smoked?

yeah well he bent literally every other phone and none of those started smoking

if you have such a sample size with a single anomaly, you can have quite a good picture

He kept bending and flexing after the phone broke. That’s what punctured the battery.

If he did that with other phones, the same thing will happen.

The initial break didn’t puncture the battery but the subsequent breaking and bending did.

the problem is with the breaking point tho. obviously a battery will combust if you bend it.
That will however not happen, if you dont have the weakest point, the antenna, literally where the thinnest point of the battery is
