Corning is going to show us the latest Glass Technologies at CES 2013, Corning Gorilla Glass 3, which is expected to be found on a number of flagship devices his year.
As you can expect, the new tough glass will be a big leap forward, with the Corning team stating they have Ā invented a new type of material which makes the glass less brittle. This is especially good as the current trend for narrow bezel devices calls for stronger, shatter-proof screen.

Gorilla Glass 3 is said to use feature Ā “Native Damage Resistance” which basically mean it requires three times the amount of force to to scratch the display. Overall scratch resistance is said to be 40% better than previous Gorilla Glass, while remaining 50% stronger if you ever manage to scratch it.
Corning will of course be putting their money where their mouth is at CES and will have a demonstration of just how tough the new glass is at their booth.
