HTC One M8 reportedly survived a drop test, which proved fatal to Samsung Galaxy s5 and iPhone 5s.
According to Mashable, when the three of them were dropped from waist height, head height and over the head height, iPhone 5s was the first to break when dropped from head height.
Meanwhile, Samsung Galaxy s5 cracked open when dropped from over the head.
HTC was the toughest of all which broke when dropped from a whooping 10ft height but there is no possible way to ensure that the impact was same for the three.
HTC One M8 comes with a solid metal casing, which may have given it a hand above the two, the report added.
