If you are the type that is fund of dropping your smartphone accidentally, well the goodnews is that the best screen protection for you is here. Chinese smartphone giant Oppo has always enjoyed a close relationship with Corning, the makers of the popular Gorilla glass so it came as no surprise that the latest Corning Gorilla Glass 6 will be launched first on the Oppo next flagship device.

OPPO’s VP Andy Wu on the manufacturer’s ongoing collaboration with Corning has this to say:

“OPPO and Corning have always maintained a close working relationship, which has enabled a superior user experience for consumers through multiple versions of OPPO smartphones. We are excited to be the first to adopt Gorilla Glass 6 on our upcoming smartphone, and we believe that consumers around the globe will enjoy an unprecedented experience”.



The exact model wasn’t mentioned in the announcement, but recent teasers and rumors suggest the first device to feature Gorilla Glass 6 could be the OPPO F9 and F9 Pro, which are slated for a launch sometime later this month.



Gorilla Glass 6 is, designed to be more durable and stronger than its predecessor which was introduced two years ago. The big story here is the ability of the new Corning Gorilla Glass 6 to withstand drops from higher heights and, perhaps even more importantly to most users, multiple drops per device. “On average, in lab tests, Gorilla Glass 6 survived 15 drops from 1 meter onto rough surfaces, and is up to two times better than Gorilla Glass 5,” according to a release from Corning.

Gorilla glass Kor....Chimpanzee Glass ni undecided

These phone manufacturers won't just stop taking us for a ride

Gorilla glass are not resistant to any kind of falls or pressure on the screen....just make a speedy prayer to the gods of your forefathers once your phone, no matter how recent, is on its way down to any hard surface

My Samsung s8 screen cracked for no reason in my pocket..and no.. there were no hard objects like keys in the same pocket. .and I know friends whose phones' screen with same Gorilla Glass cracked just from falling off a bed to the rug sad

Funny thing is...the screen is the most expensive part to replace in these phones...why would we believe manufacturers talking about gorilla glass when the bulk of their after-sales profit come from replacing screens?

If these phone manufacturers are so sure of the durability of their 'Gorilla glass', then they should be allowing us test the screens by dropping the phones from different heights at the point of purchase....and any phone which doesn't survive this pre-purchase test gets replaced with a new one which is also dropped until we get the one with a screen which is strong as advertised cool

Huge trash

Look around you, how many glasses have you seen that doesn't break?

For the fact that a car model was advertised that it has anti-collision does not mean you should start speeding and run into things anyhow,

Nobody said gorilla glasses are totally resistant to cracks, the glass can only help you to an extent and will only remain unbreakable as long as you're not carelessness with it

If you phone falls and crack, then it's your carelessness and you'll have to own your responsibility.

Even my gorilla glass 3 of that year was madly strong

As an owner of oppon1.
I got their mail last but,there is no indication as to which device will sport the glass technology. Any of the upcoming smartphones from the Oppo F9, Oppo F9 Pro, Oppo R17, or any other new device from the manufacturer could be the one to sport it.

[/s]not true. The fact that Tesla and other car manufacturers build cars with auto pilot features doesn't mean you should sleep off at the steering wheel while speeding at 120mph. Those things are just added for extra protection
