Samsung Galaxy S 4 With Gorilla Glass 3 Display: Scratch Test [Video]

Samsung Galaxy S 4 With Gorilla Glass 3 Display: Scratch Test [Video]

Posted April 22, 2013 at 11:14pm by
Check out this video that shows the Samsung Galaxy S 4, the first smartphone to feature a Gorilla Glass 3 display, being scratch tested with knives, keys, and coins.

According to Corning, with its new Native Damage Resistance, Gorilla Glass 3 has been developed to provide improved durability to withstand deep scratches and cracks in the glass. As a result, Corning Gorilla Glass 3 with Native Damage Resistance provides enhanced scratch resistance, reduced scratch visibility, and better retained strength once a scratch occurs.


It's likely that Apple will also feature a Gorilla Glass 3 display in the next generation iPhone. If you want to check out a scratch test with the current iPhone 5 you can find that here.

Take a look at the video below...

It doesnt seem genuine when the guy takes his phone out of the picture for a few seconds each time he does something to it. Kinda like he would replace it with a new phone.

You could perform that same test on a bar of chocolate and there wouldn't be a mark. This is the most unbelievably pointless test, he hasn't put any pressure on the screen at all. How about he drops it off the table a couple of times. What about those Nokia test videos where they hammer nails into a piece of wood with the screen and get no scratches?

You want to do the real test, put a pinch of sand on it and rub on the glass and see the result. Moreover, the way this guy is doing the tests with soft hands, he can use this phone lifelong without scratching it.

These tests are stupid. Try dropping the big knife point down onto the screen from 1 foot above! I bet you'll see it crack.
