Deep inside Samsung's HQ in Suwon, South Korea, countless employees spend the better part of each day putting the company's latest handsets through a series of gruelling and wince-inducing durability tests.

Before a Samsung smartphone is able to reach the market, the electronics giant wants to make sure that it'll be able to withstand a significant beating and continue to function properly.

On a recent trip to Korea, we were invited by Samsung to take a tour of its dedicated testing facility, and as we made our way through the company's labs (each more diabolical than the last) we came to understand just how seriously the company takes its quality control even if one of these tests does involve an undeniably quirky robot butt (dressed in blue denim jeans, no less) repeatedly sitting on handsets.

Crafting a dedicated robot behind is a concept that's perhaps a bit left of center, but it's also one that succinctly demonstrates Samsung's commitment to the testing of its products in real-world scenarios and that butt's just the tip of the assberg.

The article pretty big and talks about other things Samsung does to test its phone. Might be worth a read for anyone interested.
