water immersion for 650
Truth to that. I was in Starbucks at my local mall and there was a guy behind me on an iPhone 6s Plus, no case or screen protection. I got my coffee and just as I sat down I hear the guys phone hit the floor. The screen was toast, cracked all over top to bottom. I was not expecting an iPhone 6s Plus, a $750 phone to break that easy.Two days earlier I had the same exact iPhone he had but I had sent it back to T-Mobile since I was going with Windows. Anyways now I own four of the Lumia 640 and one Alcatel Fierce XL Win 10 phone. Back ups galore if I ever need a backup or a family member needs a phone I have it covered. The Windows/Lumia phones are fine for everything I do and there is a fun element I did not have using the iPhone.iPhones are notoriously fragile. Sometime try to take notice of how many iPhones you see around that are not in an Otterbox AND do not have a cracked screen. There aren't many...

Of course not, because of so loved "premium" looks.640 tho don't think the 650 could stand next to the 640 during these tests

Unfortunately they overlooked the water test for the Lumia. No surprise on the Xperia on this category as Sony has consistently made their phones either water proof or resistant out of the box. But then again, being water resistant (as advertised for the Pure) means resistant to splashes not dunks. I have the Lumia 640 and the Pure. The thing about the Pure is that the glass rounds considerably with no bezel to protect it. For those prone to dropping their phone and don't want to use a good case, the Pure is not for them. For drop durability both my 520 and 640 have survived multiple drops on concrete with only minor scratches and dents (no case or screen protector). They have always separated into three pieces and always worked after putting back together. For rough weekends (camping, hiking, biking, etc.) I will switch the sim card to my 640.
Just FYI, there's no such thing as 'waterproof'.
Most phones that make that claim are IP68 and are required to meet certain standards under test conditions specified by the vendor.
Also, IP68 does not mean you can dunk it in salt water or near chlorinated water. It's only fresh water. Most people don't seem to know that or understand it.
