Watch The Nexus One Take a Beating

Before any phone is released onto the market it goes through a series of test. Some to test the hardware. Others the operating systems. And others, to see how who can break it first. We have come across two videos in which the new Nexus One from Google is put through a series of tests to see how durable the phone is and to show the public just how such a strong phone is actually built.

We don’t get to see any of the phones break into smithereens (I don’t think my heart could take it!), but it’s pretty cool to watch them bend, flex, bounce drop and crash around the testing lab! Check out the short film (which is episode three in the series) in the HTC testing labs.

The next video in the series is the mass manufacturing of the device. As the films narrator rightly points out, the manufacturing of this phone is like no other in that quality is given prominence. Some of the machines and techniques used are pretty cool. You also get insider information from the experts.

We’ve all been waiting so long for this phone, good to see it will be able to stand up to the challenge of heavy usage!
