When it comes to the glass covering your smartphone screen, Corning is one of the go-to names. Its Gorilla Glass technology has been shielding phones since the beginning of the touchscreen era. Now, the company is expanding its well-known line of tough cover glass.its newest protective cover glass, dubbed Gorilla Glass 7i. This version is a spinoff of the 7th-generation glass, launched four years ago and known broadly as Gorilla Glass Victus.
As highlighted by the company's vice president and general manager, David Velasquez, maintaining durability and protection stays at the forefront for the glass tech maker, regardless of the device's price tag. According to Corning, Chinese smartphone brand Oppo will be the first to launch a phone with Gorilla Glass 7i. However, there are no official details from Oppo yet.. This means you can get better protection without needing to buy a premium device. Of course, no matter how tough the glass is, it can still break. So, it's smart to use an extra case, especially if you are prone to dropping your phone.
