Corning will present Gorilla Glass 3 at CES 2013

Probably the vast majority of representatives of the habrasoobschestva heard and saw Gorilla Glass. In fact, this glass protected displays a number of models of smartphones and tablets from different manufacturers. Last year, the manufacturing company, Corning, presented Gorilla Glass 2, and when displaying glass, anyone could try to break or break glass (without using hammers and other aids). Nobody was able to break the demo copy. Of course, a large number of manufacturers immediately began to use Gorilla Glass 2 in their devices. Well, this year, at CES 2013, Corning promises to show Gorilla Glass 3.

In addition to this glass, the company will also present its own fiber optic cables. But most importantly, of course, Gorilla Glass 3. According to the manufacturer, this coating has become even more durable, even more scratch resistant, even more ... well, you understand.

Corning representatives say that the coating has become three times more resistant to external influences (such as scratching with hard objects). In addition, even scratches that appear on the glass are not very noticeable (they somehow measured that the reduction in the number of visible scratches is 40%).

Of course, no one will guarantee that a tablet or smartphone, abandoned from a height of 2 meters on concrete, will survive. Nevertheless, such glass allows to provide sufficiently reliable protection of the device. In any case, manufacturers say so.
