The testing process begins with Zack scratching the display glass, revealing that it's among the best in terms of scratch resistance, scoring a level 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, with deeper scratches appearing at level 8. The frame of the phone is constructed of aluminum, with the camera plateau and a section of the back being glass. Remarkably, the screen withstands an open flame for approximately 25 seconds without incurring any lasting damage. When subjected to a bend test, the iPhone 18 Pro impressively shows no signs of bending.
Zack also disassembles the iPhone 18 Pro during his testing, showcasing various components, including the variable aperture of the main camera. This level of scrutiny has garnered significant attention in YouTube's tech community.
