Corning as we speak introduced the brand new Gorilla Glass Victus which comes with considerably improved each drop and scratch efficiency when in comparison with different aluminosilicate glasses out there.
According to Corning, Gorilla Glass Victus will ship drop efficiency as much as 2 meters when dropped onto laborious, tough surfaces. Other aggressive glasses fail when dropped from lower than 0.eight meters. Also, Gorilla Glass Victus comes with as much as a 2x enchancment in scratch resistance. The scratch resistance of Gorilla Glass Victus is as much as 4x higher than aggressive glasses. Samsung would be the first cellular OEM to undertake Gorilla Glass Victus within the close to future.
“Dropped phones can result in broken phones, but as we developed better glasses, phones survived more drops but also showed more visible scratches, which can impact the usability of devices,” Bayne stated. “Instead of our historic approach of asking our technologists to focus on a single goal – making the glass better for either drop or scratch – we asked them to focus on improving both drop and scratch, and they delivered with Gorilla Glass Victus.”
