Today the persons from Corning have proved their new and much better Gorilla Glass 2, that was used on the well-known Samsung Galaxy S III smartphone. This new creation of heightened, hardened glass was exposed at CES and we were told it would make its way onto gadgets later this year. Whether the Galaxy S III is the 1st device to function it is unknown, but at least we know the phones screen must be one of the most long-lasting of any smartphone available.

In case you do not remember,
the Galaxy Nexus did not function Gorilla Glass and many were worried it would not hold up. I am glad to hear that one of the greatest device releases of the summer (or the year) and Samsung’s new leading smartphone indeed arrives with Gorilla Glass 2. Here’s what Corning had to say:

“We are pleased to offer our customers the thin beauty and refined style of the GALAXY S III using Corning Gorilla Glass 2. New Corning Gorilla Glass 2 is an excellent solution for Samsung’s high-quality smartphones, enabling a superior touch experience and a lightweight and sleek design, with the damage and scratch resistance consumers have come to expect.”

Corning’s 2nd generation glass is a wonderful improvement over their unique product. Offering a more powerful, more durable glass that also manages to be 20% thinner. What does this indicate for smartphone users? Phones can be thinner and lighter, screens will be brighter and have superior viewing angles, and touch answer will be better, faster, and more precise than ever.
