Xiaomi used live crabs and lobsters to test the toughness of its Mi 4 smartphone

Xiaomi recently posted a video on Facebook
showing how its Mi 4 smartphone passed an
unusual toughness test.
The company used live crabs (a freshwater crab,
and a Japanese blue crab), as well as a lobster
against the Mi 4. As you may know, the Xiaomi Mi
4 is a well-made handset that's built around a
stainless steel frame, so it's not surprising that
crab and lobster claws can't damage it - as the
video, embedded below, is showing. Sure, the
lobster's claws are quite powerful, being capable
of breaking glass, but we're talking about metal
here after all.
Naturally, the video caused controversy, as some
commentators pointed out that Xiaomi should not
use animal testing (because that's what this is,
after all) to promote its handset.
Regardless of the way Xiaomi chooses to show us
how tough its device is, if you want to find out
how well this performs as a smartphone, not as
potential food for crabs and lobsters, you should
