The most durable phones of 2023 were introduced; Pixel 7a in first place + video
In the last hours of 2023, the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel released a video to announce the winners of the 2023 Most Durable Phone Awards. In this video, Apple won the award for the most beautiful interior design and the Pixel 7a was announced as the most durable phone of the year.
“Zack” in Video New started its work by introducing the most repairable phone of 2023. This title was awarded to Fairphone 5, almost all of its parts are supplied by the manufacturer and can be easily replaced by the user. This phone also has a 5-year warranty, but it is not available in many countries, including the United States.
The second phone in terms of repairability, the Pixel 8 Pro, was introduced, for which Google supplies spare parts through iFixit. Of course, you still need some professional equipment to open this device, but repairing this phone is much easier than other flagships in the market.
The most durable phones of 2023
As for the worst durability among foldable phones, Zack chose the Pixel Fold, but the most durable phone of the year was the Pixel 7a, so Google had two winners and one loser in this video.
In the field of worst repairability, Asus with Ragphone 7 Ultimate was higher than Apple. With multiple internal connections, two batteries and many cables, this phone makes repair very difficult. Even Zach himself had given up on reassembling the phone in his review video.
However, the same Rugged Phone 7 Ultimate received the title of the most innovative phone of 2023 from JerryRigEverything. This award was given to this phone for implementing a mechanical valve that opens to cool the device.
iPhone 15 Pro was called the most beautiful phone in terms of internal design. Of course, he criticized Apple’s marketing regarding the use of titanium and claimed that contrary to the claims of Cupertinos, only a small amount of titanium was used in the frame of this device and a large part of the body was not made with this material.
