The iPhone Steve Jobs revealed in January 2007 featured a 3.5-inch plastic display. Not many people remember that, because the phone sold that June was covered in glass. The switch from plastic to Gorilla glass is made using alkali-aluminosilicate, while tempered glass is just regular silicon dioxide (silica) glass that’s been toughened using heat. In terms of materials, the gorilla glass composition is mainly silicon, aluminum, sodium, and magnesium. On the other hand, the glass that’s used to produce tempered glass is composed of Sapphire crystal, as mentioned, is extremely durable and resistant to scratches. Whatever Corning Gorilla Glass Victus could do on the Galaxy Watch 4, sapphire certainly gives it a run for its While Corning makes some of the best smartphone glass available, Gorilla Glass 3 is one of its oldest versions, having originally launched in 2013. At the time, Corning was promoting Gorilla Glass 3 as having a 'proprietary glass composition' that made it 4x more scratch-resistant compared to competing aluminosilicate glasses. Corning this week said its new laptop product, Gorilla Glass NBT, incorporates the Gorilla Glass 3improvements announced earlier this year, improvements it says are twice as scratch resistant as Corning's most recent innovation, Gorilla Glass 4, launched in November with the promise of twice the toughness of any competitive cover glass on the market. It was specifically designed to The fēnix 6X Pro is all about pushing new limits and exploring new challenges, complete with mapping, music, intelligent pace planning and much more. Its 1.4-inch display features tough, scratch-resistant Corning® Gorilla® Glass DX which also enhances display readability through a 75% improvement in front surface reflection. Learn More >>.

Sometimes mis-sold as Gorilla Glass. This stuff is crappy and scratches easily. My Lumia 820 has it and is scratched to bits. 2. Old Gorilla Glass. Pretty solid. Today we've pretty much given up plastic screens for glass, and not just any glass: Corning Gorilla Glass! Gorilla Glass is super hard, super scratch resistant, and doesn't easily break (but when The most recent development in Corning’s Gorilla Glass technology for protecting mobile and computing device screens.Gorilla Glass 3 with Native Damage Resistance was announced at CES 2013 as offering “enhanced scratch resistance, reduced scratch visibility and better retained strength once a scratch does occur” over previous generations of Gorilla Glass, according to Corning. kVOtYGR.
