Samsung phones will be world's first to get new Gorilla Glass for cameras - TechRadar
While there are some competitors, Corning and its Gorilla Glass technology has all but dominated the smartphone market when it comes to the use of durable, scratch-resistant glass.Today, the company has announced two new types of Gorilla Glass with DX and DX+ technology, introducing a new product class focusing on the glass covering a smartphone camera's lens?Strictly speaking, Gorilla Glass with DX is not just glass and it's not new – Gorilla Glass with DX is a composite material and it was first used in 2018 on the Samsung Galaxy Watch but, at the time, the technology hadn't been refined specifically for camera applications.To do this, Corning had to overcome the married problems of increasing the scratch resistance and durability of its glass composite, while not negatively impacting its optical performance (a notable side effect of lending a transparent material extra endurance).
