It is tough and more durable than Gorilla Glass Victus.

On a slightly softer asphalt road, it can withstand a free fall from a height of 2 meters.
“Today’s consumers expect unbreakable mobile phone displays. In all honesty, for more than a decade, Gorilla Glass has met the needs of mobile phone users and set the standard for robust housing materials,” said David Velasquez, vice president and general manager, of Corning Gorilla Glass.
