Drop Test Performance
Gorilla Glass 7i survived up to 2X higher than competitive Li-Al-Si on 180-grit sandpaper
In lab tests,Gorilla Glass 7i survived drops of up to 1 meter on 180-grit sandpaper,simulating asphalt.
Competitive lithium aluminosilicate typically fails from less than 0.5 meters.
Scratch Test Performance
Gorilla Glass 7i provided up to 2X higher scratch threshold than competitive Li-Al-Si glasses
We tested for scratch threshold using our Knoop Diamond Scratch Test. For Gorilla Glass 7i, the scratch threshold is typically 8-10 Newtons. The typical threshold for competitive lithium aluminosilicate is at 4 Newtons.
