As the owner of a smartphone with Gorilla Glass, I can say that it is a really great protection technology. I had a lot of cell phones and communicators, but in most models the display was the weakest point. No, not in the sense that it was beating and cracking, it was just that the cover could not be a guarantee that at one fine moment a scratch did not form on the display surface. And these scratches are cool.
I remember that in Qtek S100 the display was scratched almost with a fingernail. But the tempered glass of Gorilla Glass changed everything, and for half a year (even more), there are no scratches on the surface of the display of my communicator. And the manufacturer Gorilla Glass already promises to show a new product - Gorilla Glass 2. It should happen on Monday, at the consumer electronics exhibition in Las Vegas.

Every year this exhibition is held, or rather, a show, and every year tens of thousands of visitors are eager to see all the new things that manufacturers demonstrate. On Monday, Corning, namely, it is a manufacturer of Gorilla Glass, is going to introduce a new generation of tempered glass. Unfortunately, accurate information about the new product is not yet available, but the manufacturer promises that the new product will be much better than the old one. In any case, the new glass, other things being equal, with the first product will be thinner and lighter.
In this case, Gorilla Glass 2 can be used not only in mobile devices, but also in conventional TVs, for example. Thus, an 82-inch touchscreen protected by Gorilla Glass 2 will be shown at the exhibition. In addition, a video wall covered with new tempered glass will also be presented. In general, it remains to wait for Monday, and there it will already be clear what product is represented by Corning.
