Iwatch will choose sapphire? Big gorilla Crisis!

Corning, a global leader in special glass and ceramic materials, has recently been furious because Apple has begun to show a keen interest in sapphire, and there are even rumors that iwatch will use a sapphire screen. In the past, it was because Jobs chose Corning's Gorilla Glass that the Corning Glass technology was almost dead.

Now, two places on Apple's iphone have started using sapphire, which protects the iphone camera and iphone's touch ID, according to the driver, who previously worked with Apple's sapphire maker GT Advanced has ordered a large number of sapphire-producing materials, seemingly intended to produce 5-inch cell phone panels.

But for Corning, that's not the message they want to hear, it is estimated that this is all "naked infidelity" to them, so Corning executives in the language of the large number of sapphire, and the opinion of Corning executives summed up is "sapphire is expensive, heavy, light and poor and very easy to break, and so many shortcomings than , you can completely ignore the advantages of sapphire scratch. ”

But Corning's worries are not necessary now, because the properties of sapphire, in the current technology, are not suitable for use on mobile phones, but its wear-resistant use in the iwatch is just right, so the sapphire is more likely to appear in large range on the iwatch.

However, as the saying goes, whether you use the gorilla or sapphire, can not be separated from my heavenly ancestral film.
