Corning announces Gorilla Glass SR+ for wearables


The new glass is designed with wearables in mind to reduce visible scratches with still good clarity and touch sensitivity.

With rigorous daily activity, consumers put their wearable devices to the test, leaving them exposed to damage. To overcome the challenges facing the screens on these devices, Corning scientists developed a new glass composite engineered to better endure the bumps, knocks and scrapes wearables encounter while maintaining the optical clarity and touch sensitivity required for on-the-go connectivity.
