You are right. When he scratches the back of the phone these are no Nexus and Huawei markings.

While I do think the test was unfair, I do think this was a Nexus 6P. You may have to change your contrast/brightness settings, but I could see the Nexus insignia on the back (the Huawei looked a bit more blurry). Also, he has the pictures uploaded to Imgur.
Nexus 6p Bend Test Proof

Here's what the Verge has to say about it:
So please, don't take this too seriously or let it affect your purchasing decision. Just take it for what it is: beautiful in its sheer, horrifying nihilism.

I'm waiting on the novelty factor (read Swappa price) to die down a bit, and I'll probably grab one soon enough.

I figured the first test had something done to weaken it. If I had an extra device I'd test it.

Agh as discussed heating it broke the phone so it could be bent.
