Corning Gorilla Glass
3 is all set to be unveiled at the CES 2013, which is currently underway at Las
Vegas.
The Gorilla Glass 3 incorporates a new
technology, called Native Damage Resistance, which is touted as the enhancement
over earlier versions. With the Native Damage Resistance, the cracking of
screens is expected to reduce to a great extent. “As a world leader in glass
innovation, we are dedicated to meeting the needs of our customers with our
product innovation”, stated James R Steiner, Senior Vice President and General
Manager of Corning Specialty Materials.
A
demonstration that will depict the usefulness of the Gorilla Glass 3 with
Native Resistance is expected to be showcased in detail at CES.
The
Gorilla Glass has been featured as a protector (cover glass) on various mobile
devices and has proved to be a runaway hit so far. Reportedly, the Gorilla
Glass has been featured on approximately 1 billion gadgets as of now. The
protector has seen two earlier versions viz Gorilla Glass 1 and Gorilla Glass 2.
Even
tougher screens or just another version? We will have to wait for the launch to
know the specific benefits of the Native Damage resistance feature.
Corning
says that its currently in talks with its global partners, and the company
expects Gorilla Glass 3 to start showing up in smartphones in mid-2013. The
iPhone 5S and Galaxy SIV may just be the first phones to feature the new and
improved glass.
