This is what happens when a smart phone wants to be too smart

A while ago i got a phone to repair because its software was corrupted. After several days of trying i gave up and decided to bug a friend with it. He too kept trying for several days, but the phone just didn’t cooperate… So we decided the phone is a lost cause and figured we could perform an exorcism on it:

The big hole is from a 9mm which clearly passed through.
The small holes are from a weak shot gun and to our amazement the buckshots didn’t pass through, actually they did surprisingly little damage.

To be quite honest the result of shooting the phone was far less entertaining than envisioned. Perhaps we shouldn’t have removed the battery to make it look more like a mythbuters experiment :D
