Sapphire vs Gorilla Glass- Bending and Impact
News
|
Aug 28, 2014
We scratch, bend, and break both Gorilla Glass, and sapphire side by side to see which is stronger, and which makes more sense on a smartphone.
The Math
We compare failure stress and strain for Gorilla glass and the Sapphire. We did this using a four point bend test and the calculations below. We also tested several dozen pieces.
