Corning Gorilla Glass is revolutionary hardware that makes smartphone displays scratch-proof, so you don't need to spend additional cash on a scratch guard to save you handset's display. This glass is also extremely tough, and is chemically strengthened to be more durable and damage resistant.
The Corning Company owns the technology that improves the glass composition so that it is able to resist deep scratches which breaks glass. They call this 'Native Damage Resistance' or NDR.
But what a lot of people don't know is that Gorilla glasses can be built extremely thin - as thin as 0.4 mm or as thick as 2 mm. This thickness varies with the smartphone model and its requirement, but the glass at any thickness is almost unbreakable under normal use conditions. And since these glasses are thin, they are ideal for touchscreen phones and phablets, as they can detect pressure that is applied by a single finger's touch.
Finally, the thin glasses have another advantage - and that is that they are lightweight. If a phone with Gorilla Glass is heavy, you can be assured that the cause is definitely not the display glass itself!
The problem faced by a lot of budget smartphone users in India is that the screens break, get scratched, or that the touchscreens are not responsive. Mobile phone manufacturers like Micromax, Karbonn, and iBerry make great smartphones that are easy on the pocket, but the durability is often questioned. If these smartphone makers switch to a Gorilla Glass, the durability of these phones would improve many times over! Hopefully this will happen sooner, rather than later.
If you value durability in a smart phone, make sure you check the display - you will be better off with one that has a Gorilla Glass. No more broken screens, damaged screens, or even dirty, peeling, bubbling scratch guards! Listed below in the slideshow are some of the top smartphone picks that have this fantastic Gorilla Glass.
