The folding phone gets two drops without a case, first open, then closed and recording video.

Dropping iPhone Duo from Spiral Staircase - 200 Feet - Will it Survive?

TechRax starts by admiring the polish and hinge of his new iPhone Duo. It is a brief appreciation: soon the unfolded phone is tumbling down the center of a spiral staircase.

His only upload this week, "Dropping iPhone Duo from Spiral Staircase - 200 Feet - Will it Survive?", gathered roughly 19,000 views in its first three hours. The first fall leaves the cover screen working, but the inner display is damaged and frozen. For the second attempt, he folds the phone shut and sets it recording. The aftermath includes shattered rear glass, a badly bent frame and, surprisingly, a hinge that continues to move.

The comments make this feel less like an ordinary unboxing than a familiar appointment. Viewers describe the staircase drops as a seasonal tradition, request bend and hammer tests, and debate how well the phone held up on its first fall. Several are simply marking his return.

The staircase also keeps the back catalog busy. The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air drop currently draws slightly more daily views than September's iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Air version, with the newer Pro's hammer-and-knife test also gathering attention. There is a long history here: his 2019 iPhone XS staircase upload has passed 124 million views.

Across the channel, weekly viewing added roughly half a million views while the subscriber count stayed unchanged. That is a modest viewing week alongside nearby gadget channels such as iJustine and JerryRigEverything. For TechRax, the fresh addition is unmistakably his own: a folding phone subjected to the same unforgiving staircase.
