Corning Is Coming up With Gorilla Glass Victus for Smartphone Displays

 

Corning is a leading supplier of display protection technology for smartphones. Recently Corning has announced a new industry standard protection technology for smartphones. This time Corning has come up with Gorilla Glass Victus for the display of the smartphones. This technology has an improved drop and scratch performance. If you look from the very beginning of its evolution, Corning’s technology has been opted by over 45 manufacturers. More than 8 million devices have used Corning’s glass protection technology by far. Along with the handsets, devices like wearables, tablets, and even laptops are using Corning’s display protection technology.

 

Gorilla Glass Victus

Generally, users give priority to features like durability before they start checking other specifications of the device like camera quality, screen size, and more. So, by keeping in mind the same factor, Corning has developed the Gorilla Glass Victus technology.

The Gorilla Glass family has got improvements regarding the drop and scratch performance, for the first time. You may also see a more improved scratch resistance technology in the Gorilla Glass 6. By far Victus, as explained by Corning, was able to survive even when dropped on a rough surface from a two-meter height. This tells us the rigidness it has. One more aspect was kept in mind while developing the Victus, and it was the idea that this technology might also be helpful in the curved displays. However, Victus didn’t come up with significant implications for OEMs regarding the volume or weight, it will, however, possibly be making its way in getting used for the tablets, wearables, and laptops.

Even though the last generation display protection technology by Corning did improve a lot on the drop protection, it was still seen that there were many scratches visible on the phones. This was a major factor that led to the development of Victus. This was one of the crucial factors for which Corning decided to make Gorilla Glass Victus.

John Bayne, the senior vice president, and general manager of Corning’s mobile consumer electronics division, in a recent interview, said, “Instead of our historic approach of asking our technologists to focus on a single goal – making the glass better for either drop or scratch – we asked them to focus on improving both drop and scratch, and they delivered with Gorilla Glass Victus.

Conclusion

Corning would simply have given it a name Gorilla Glass 7, but that would not have been judgmental. The improvements in this new display protection were bigger and better than the previous ones. So, instead of merely giving it a name in the series of Gorilla Glasses, Corning decided to give it a unique name, and hence they came up with the title “Victus” whose Latin meaning is “Survivor”. By giving it the name Gorilla Glass Victus, Corning indicates to us about its high durability and reliability.

Gorilla Glass Victus is all set to make its debut on an upcoming smartphone by Samsung, and it will most probably be one of the handsets from the Galaxy Note 20 series which is all set to launch on August 5.

How to Use Instagram Carousel to Promote Your Business Successfully

  Instagram is one of the biggest social media platforms that people use for various purposes. Individuals use it to connect with friends and family, influencers use it to promote themselves, and brands use it to promote campaigns, products, services, etc. The biggest drawback that Instagram faced for a long time was its layout. The photos feel very cluttered and disorganized at times. Up until a while back, you could not display more than one picture per post. For information that needs more than one photo, you had to put up multiple posts. That was a limitation especially felt by company pages that used the social media platform to promote their brand and product. The audience that was not particularly interested in the products ends up unfollowing or scrolling away, which leaves the entire point of the posts moot. The introduction of the Instagram carousel solved all these issues at once. The users could now upload up to 10 pictures in a single post.  It eliminated the un...
