When the first smartphones arrived, manufacturers immediately realized one thing: people dropped them a lot. The lawsuits have helped, but broken screens have been one of the biggest constants of the smartphone era, but Corning was there to protect them with their crystals. It’s been a while since they launched a new product, but now comes the new protective layer that is stronger and tougher than ever.
Gorilla Glass Victus 2. This is the name of the new Corning layer, which is the evolution of Gorilla Glass Victus (released in 2020) and is more resistant to some particularly tough materials, according to the manufacturer.
cement me. According to Corning, the new material can withstand a drop of up to one meter on a concrete surface, which is definitely a new milestone in drop resistance. Not only that: it’s also resistant to drops from a height of two meters onto asphalt. “Surfaces are important, and hard surfaces like concrete are everywhere,” said Corning CEO Dave Velasquez.
Battery or camera gives (somewhat) the same. Corning studies say that for 84% of those who buy these devices, the durability of their smartphone is the second most important thing.
The first is the brand of the device, but the battery or camera seems to be behind in those surveys. It’s made by a company committed to durability, so you should look at the data with some skepticism, but it’s definitely a relevant parameter.
heavy and big. Velasquez said mobile phones are “about 15% heavier and screen sizes up to 10% larger than they were four years ago.”
This increases the risk of protective glass, as well as the possibility of damaging the device. Gorilla Glass Victus 2 is designed precisely for devices that are heavier and therefore fall harder.
Patience. Although the announcement is made now, the material is being “evaluated” by some major manufacturers and they say they expect to see it on the market “in the coming months” from Corning. So it looks like we’ll start seeing presentations of terminals with this type of protection at Mobile World Congress.
