LG Optimus 2X is really equipped with Gorilla Glass!

Today Corning updated their site with featured devices - the O2X is there too!

For those who dont know the strength of Gorilla glass.

I have had a O2X for a month. Actually, O2X's screen looks like a Gorilla Glass but I haven't really believed. Is it true?

And this applies to all O2X phones?

Well I guess I can rip of the "screen protector" that came preinstalled on the phone now!
Actually I would like to have confimed that the P990 has it and not just the Korean version!!! We'll probably never get that though...

for all of you that need proff, head over to this youtube video to see a daring owner put it to the test
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mt4hi_lIfmI

That was obviously the P990 model in the video.
Now I'm happy, I can let my O2X go totally commando in confidence.

ok that's indeed painfull to watch haha. i personally wouldnt remove the preapplied screenprotector. But it's nice to know the phone can handle some abuse.

screen protector just ripped of and gained a lot of confidence!

You do realise metal cannot scratch minerals(Glass)
Use some minerals and enjoy the scratches
Screen protectors are useless
Gorilla glass is a marketing trick
Using an old N82 now
Impervious to a razorblade
A tiny bit of sand
GG scratches
Always will be the same

It's mid-day & I am not drunk... I don't mean any insult but your post is very confusing.

http://anythingbutipod.com/2009/04/glass-screen-durability-test-a-lesson-on-the-mohs-hardness-scale/
Harder materials will scratch softer materials.
Basically:
Sand > Gorilla Glass > Metal > 'Standard' Glass
So if you take the 2X with you to a beach it may become scratched.
A cursory Google search brought up this: http://androidforums.com/motorola-droid/45812-has-anyone-scratched-their-gorilla-glass.html

I dont know if this ever got settled but this is what i found.

Is the camera back gorilla glass, glass, or plastic? =) Waiting for my o2x to ship. Not a biggie to me but I was just wondering.

i think this site might have got hacked ) lol. no but seriously!!!!! htc desire??? htc wildfire??? with gorilla glass? how did they come up with that?

I loved the fact that the phone has gorilla glass.
But after 1 weekend involving alcohol, it's full of tiny and some deep scratches. No idea how they got there, but it certainly isn't scratch proof

Haha didnt notice that. Oh well. Gotta be careful with mine when it arrives. And sure as hell wont put a key scratch test on it.
And i am pretty sure its glass and not plastic.

Screen protector

Do you guys use any screen protector with your ace?? And which one?

Mumbi screenprotector, die perfect fit, easy to install, and screen surface feels smoother with it.

See this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv4Llv3UedY
...and then to consider whether you really need screen protector for Samsung Galaxy ACE!

To say the ace screens don't use gorilla glass thats pretty damn impressive!

Check Corning's (Manufacturer of gorilla glass) website, they say Ace got their gorilla glass.

So there is no need to use protector?

I think YES!

I have my first scratch 2 month ago because of key..
for me it's still essential to use screenguard..

Got two little scratches, really dont know how that happend.
But a phone is for me an object of daily use, so thats not a big problem for me.

Maybe there's a difference between SGA that made in Korea and the one made in Vietnam?
I mean, Corning (the manufacturer of Gorilla Glass) itself said that Ace uses Gorilla Glass and I think the video above shows us enough about the scratch-resistance factor the Ace has.
Hmm strange :/

Using Gorilla Glas doesn't mean it's automatically absolutely scratch resistant. Even the oh so sturdy Defy can get scratches under certain circumstances, so I rather play it save and use a screen protector.

i enjoy the naked beauty of my phone. to be honest, those things just hinder me from enjoying it's screen

I was about to post same video
I've dropped my Ace few times and no scratches at all.
Does anyone know if the camera glass is made of scratch proof Gorilla Glass too?

I also agree with you.

Which screen protector do you use?

I'm using a screenprotector from "Muvit" for Samsung Ace and it works perfect.
I'm also using the rubber case from it.

Zagg invisible shield apparently there use to cover helicopter rota blades to protect them from sand
I could only find a universal one had to cut a hole around the speaker. To apply it you have to use a liquid.

I dont use it, the ace screen seems very strong.

They quote it as gorilla glass.

Nexus S Screen Protectors

Does anyone know of a reputable and cheap seller of screen protectors for Nexus S i9020, in the UK? I am suspicious of eBay results but perhaps I should not? Links/Names would be appreciated.

I suggest eBay. Got mine, an XtremeGuard protector which is a vinyl type protector (from user xtreme_guard). First one I got was damaged during shipping, too much weight was put onto the envelope containing it and it got marked by the application tool and he sent me another one free of charge. Best protector I ever bought and definitely a good ebay experience.

Lol I used to use a screen protector then I took it off because the two end wouldn't fit properly since the nexus has a curved screen but so far no scratches I actually had scratches on my screen protector :banghead:

I've had my phone for over a year...and I'm rough on it. It's always in my pocket everywhere I go, and I work at construction sites at least two days a week. After 14 months of owning it I have only gotten one tiny, barely noticeable scratch on the screen.
Don't waste your money...screen protectors aren't necessary with gorilla glass

Have faith. There are no scratches. Gorilla glass isn't the only sturdy/scratch-resistant glass in the world.

I was under the same impression when I bought the phone too.
Gorilla glass or not though, the biggest screen scratcher isn't rusty nails or whatever gimmicky thing they show you in the phone screen protector ads but rather pocket sand. Any sand you have in your pockets will DESTROY the phone over time. I've seen some phones become completely hazy, including ones equipped with Gorilla glass from people working more physical jobs.
Mine has a protector, but it's for the OCD rather than anything else. As long as you put your phone in a pocket of it's own, empty of any debris, and you don't rub it face first on a table, it should be fine.

Moto G2 Gorilla Glass 3 Resistance

Hey guys i bought my phone like 5 months ago and a week later i bought a plastic screen protector.
Today i took it cause i didnt like it anymore. I have like 3 little scratches that are hard to see. Now the touch screen feels so smoth but i have a question. How resistant is gorilla glass? Have anyone never used plastic screen protector on your moto g2?

Use tempered glass screen guard. It will be as smooth as the gorilla glass.

All the best

Tempered glass feels just like gorilla glass, personally I've scratched the gorilla glass 2 and tempered glasses, small hard to notice scratches but the sand can scratch any screen

scratches on screen or on protector? how screen got scratches with protector on it? + I'm not using any protector it feels awesome, bought two days ago haven't purchased flip cover yet.

Same here. I've had mine for 7 months, dropped it on the floor, concrete, and everywhere you can imagine and no scratches. One thing that helps is the Tudia case I purchased on Amazon. It cushions very well in a drop and the slightly raised edge around the screen keeps the screen from contacting anything in case of a drop.

I'm using my phone for 5 months now without any protection, and I don't have any scratch on the glass.

You dont see it when the screen is on ans u are looking it directly, try when its off and make the light reflect on your screen then u will see them.
I got small ones before puting the plastic screen protector on now in using without it and yeah it feels so much better.

Same here .Don´t drop it,if you have it in your pocket (better in your jacket,not your trousers) be sure that there´s nothing else in it, handle with care.
I like the feeling of the screen without protector but you have to be a bit careful then.

Yeah I do the same... I never dropped the phone, I always have it in my pocket and I always make sure that nothing else is in my pocket.
It's a low budget phone with a great glass on the screen, I'm not going to ruin the user experience with screen protectors..
Actually I used my Galaxy S2 in the same way and I only got some mini scratches on it. Gorilla Glass FTW.

Official OnePlus 3 Curved Tempered Glass (New and improved)

Looks pretty neat. Available for US$20/20€.

i am holding off until i see some reviews. looks great but also looks like it will not work with cases.

Waiting for reviews...

this product looks EXACTLY THE SAME as the aftermarket ones being sold right now.
also, the "curved" probably refers to the curved edges of the tempered glass itself, NOT to the glass curving to fit the phone's curved screen.

If I stop spending money on extras that do not work or are not 100% optimum I think I could buy another new phone.
Btw a bit expensive, not? I'll wait to see some review.

The OG tempered glass from OP for the OP3 is dog ****.
I am very disappointed as it does not even cover the whole screen!

Well i believe it won't work nicely with the back covers like Spigen Ones.

Waiting for the white version and the Reviews

I've tried screen protectors with edge to edge coverage and they gradually form cracks over time. I've had no such issues with non edge to edge screen protectors, this is pretty unfortunate. I wonder if this would do any better.

I've waited for a proper 3D TGSP and would order this, but waiting for the payday
I'm counting on this official protector.

Wonder if this is like the others which don't have adhesive on the clear part.

I just spoke with oneplus customer support and they said that the screen protector has adhesive on the whole surface of the screen protector. But, I am not 100% confident in their response. Will have to wait and see the reviews

Yeah, I'm not confident either lol. It's a shame it has to be that way.
I currently have a wet-install film on my screen because all the tempered glass options have shoddy reviews. The film went on perfectly and is nearly invisible, but I just don't feel as comfortable with it.
