Samsung would have you believe its latest greatest smartphones are rough and tough, but new torture tests may have shattered that reputation before it even takes hold. 

Samsung says the Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus, have a new, improved and thicker "Infinity Display" built to be more durable. Warranty outfit SquareTrade put those claims to the test (a number of tests, actually) and found that while the latest Galaxy might be a little more durable than Apple's iPhone X and the S9's predecessor, the Galaxy S8, it still leaves you with lots of cracks and some loose glass and may even completely shatter from just a single drop.
