Known for putting smartphones and other gadgets through brutal durability tests on his YouTube channel “JerryRigEverything”, Zack Nelson recently turned his attention to the Pixel 4 XL, putting it through the paces and subjecting it to an array of torture tests that raised serious doubts about its build quality.

As noted by Nelson himself, most modern flagship smartphones survive his durability tests without any major damage, but the Pixel 4 XL was not one of the survivors, having cracked in four different places along the frame. According to Nelson, “Each of the antenna lines cracked when the phone was bent”, which tells you that it might not be the most structurally sound phone in the market today.
