AGM X1 Rugged Phone Dropped From A Drone And Survives

We’ve seen Chinese smartphones live through some impressive feats of destruction but this video of the AGM X1 rugged phone is something else.

AGM has been telling the tech world for weeks now that their new X1 rugged phone would be something special and indeed the handset does look more impressive than the competition, but its this video that really get’s us!

In the video below you’ll see the AGM X1 survive a couple of drops before being attached to a drone flown to a claimed 1000 feet and dropped. Watch the test below.

So yes the phone does fall in a field the first time around and on the second drop it hits a tin roof before concrete (likely slowing the fall) but even from the height of the roof any other phone would likely smash into pieces.

The AGM X1 boasts a 5.5inch 1920 x 1080 AMOLED display, Snapdragon 617 chipset, 4GB RAM and large 5400mAh battery. The X1 is also the first rugged smartphone to launch with dual main cameras and IP68 certification.

For those of you impressed with the AGM X1 you can pick the phone up through Aliexpress for just $251.99 until May 8th, that’s a saving of $48! The shopping link for the phone is this, and if you need more details on the handset visit the official AGM website here.
