Corning defends Gorilla Glass 5 in light of Galaxy Note7 scratch tests

The Samsung Galaxy Note7 is one of the principal smartphones to accompany Gorilla Glass 5, one that was declared a month ago. GG5 expected to withstand drops from selfie-tallness. Quick forward to this week, YouTuber JerryRigEverything played out a scratch test (as he generally does) with his metal picks which are all separately illustrative of Mohs size of hardness.
Essentially, anything with a higher hardness rating will scratch whatever else with a lower rating.



The Note7 didn't do as such well in the YouTuber's video where it started to hint at scratching at just at Mohs level 3 though past Gorilla glass models have come in at 5 or 6. Android Authority met the general population over at Corning to examine what could go ahead with the Note7's G.G.5 screen. 

Corning reacted with: "the test that was led in the video is clearly not a bonafide industry test. It's utilizing Mohs hardness picks, yet it's in an uncontrolled way. We likewise don't have the foggiest idea about a mess about what stacks the individual has utilized. Whether those heaps are changing as he experiences the testing."




A higher danger of scratching could be totally conceivable with an enhanced smash resistance. It would just bode well as an intelligent exchange off for glass to be able to assimilate stun better to the detriment of having "milder" glass. 

The meeting goes ahead with Corning negating the YouTuber's test (in spite of the to some degree steady results with past G.G. adaptations scratching at Mohs level 5 or 6). Saying that we don't recognize what sort of burden he utilized when scratching these telephones with these tools. 

Corning now states that what we likely have seen on the video is prone to be "metallic exchange" Which happens when a harder material's rubbing with a gentler material causes the milder one to exchange onto the harder one. 

Corning's full meeting with Android Authority can be found at the source join underneath. The organization's general tone is entirely protective, and its contentions are very advantageous. In any case, in all actuality officially out (as is the Note7) so if Corning is keeping quiet with these contentions, the world will know at some point or another. 

For the time being, we could prescribe that you utilize some sort of screen defender or a case to keep the Note7 on the off chance that it is, truth be told, more inclined to scratching than past forms. 

Do you think Corning is coming clean or making a decent attempt to safeguard itself?
