Ultimately Cupertino recognized that heavy-duty glass Gorilla Glass is used in current models of iPhone and iPad, and the second generation of this product will be the basis for new models of Apple-gadget. Reference to the American manufacturer Corning as one of the suppliers of Apple is on the official page «US Jobs Supported by Apple», devoted to jobs in the United States.
So, earlier this year, Corning demonstrated the further development of technologies for the glass protecting the screen phones, tablets and laptops. The second generation of Gorilla Glass is 20% thinner than originally announced, while maintaining the characteristics of strength and resistance to scratches and mechanical stress. The thickness of the glass decreased by 0.1 mm, which greatly increases the visibility of images on the phone display and reduces the resistance of the multi-display on the touch control.
Experts in the field of heavy-duty glass released an impressive video to show what the load is able to withstand the recent creation of Corning.
