That's funny you mention that:
Scraping keys on the gorilla glass is the demonstration they do (or at least have done twice while I am there) at the Apple store to show you how hard the screen is.
You sure you weren't scratching it on a diamond, stone, or perhaps a piece of plastic stuck to the screen was being scratched?
- cbs 15y agoGorilla glass is nice, but its not perfect. I don't use screen protectors but the only thing I carry in my phone pocket is my phone. By the time I get a new phone, the screens are always pretty beaten up.
- kokey 15y agoI always carry my iPhone 4 with my keys in the same pocket. Been doing so for about 14 months now, and I wear skinny jeans from time to time. The screen is still perfect. That said, since the glass is more brittle than plastic, and I do drop a phone about once per year (which is obviously not a problem for a Nokia), I have decided to retain my insurance on it. The iPhone also doesn't take well to being soaked in water, and water is something that can happen to a phone in many ways. Situations like a surprise tropical storm, an idiot friend pushing you into a swimming pool, new trousers that pops everything out when you pull it up after going to the toilet, condensation that forms on the drink with ice you put down on a table next to the phone in a really humid climate, taking a cruise on the titanic, etc.
- gte910h 15y agoGorilla glass is very hard. Keys aren't going to scratch it. It IS breakable though, and things harder than it (some stone, for instance) can scratch it. But crushing is the big thing to worry about.
