Pixel 11 Pro XL Surpasses Durability Tests with Flying Colors

The Google Pixel 11 Pro XL has been put through a series of durability tests to see how it withstands scratches, flames, and bending. In a video teardown, the phone's frame was subjected to an open flame for 20 seconds with no damage to the screen or frame. The test also revealed that the phone's glass is scratch-resistant, scoring a level 6 on the Mohs scale.

The most critical test was the bend test, where the phone showed almost no flex at all, regardless of the direction it was bent from. This suggests that the Pixel 11 Pro XL has a robust build quality and can withstand everyday wear and tear.

During the teardown, the device's internal components were revealed, including the HiLight LED and other key components. The test concluded that common repairs are relatively easy to do by a professional, which is a welcome feature for users who may need to replace parts in the future.
