Smartphone prices continue to rise, with many flagship models exceeding $1,000. As a result, users’ expectations for these devices are understandably high. This includes not only superior performance, but also premium materials and exceptional durability. Fortunately, some manufacturers are meeting this challenge. Samsung offers convincing proof of this with the Galaxy S24 Ultra, whose screen perfectly withstands a drop from a height of 4000 meters.
Galaxy S24 Ultra breaks the endurance record!
About this incredible case appeared Frank Carballido, who recently wrote on a social network. While parachuting, Frank accidentally dropped the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra from his pocket, causing him to plummet 1,200 feet (about 4,000 meters) to the ground. While this may seem like an absolute disaster for the smartphone, the story takes an incredible turn. After using Find My Device, Frank was shocked to see that his phone was still receiving signal.

He dropped his phone and ran there hoping to recover his $1,199 Galaxy S24 Ultra; Even a minor repair is better than nothing. Imagine his shock when he found his phone completely intact! Of course, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is not indestructible on its own. A closer look at the video reveals that a protective case and screen protector probably saved the day.
It landed on a soft, leafy surface, probably stopped by trees. This successful impact point prevented damage to the phone. Despite this, the Galaxy S24 Ultra survived the plane crash remarkably. This clearly emphasizes the importance of using a case and screen protector!
