“You break it within three months - we fix it” in part because of the faith in Corning’s new Gorilla Glass 5 and in part to encourage purchasers of its noew flagship P10 and P10 Plus.
Gorilla Glass 5 is pretty tough and it is a feature on many of the latest smartphones.
GG5 will survive a 1.6-metre “shoulder height” drop onto hard, rough surfaces 80% of the time – apparently up to four times better drop failure than its nearest competitors.
That is just as well as a recent global study by Toluna reveals that 85% of smartphone owners have dropped their phone at least once per year, and 55% are plain clumsy. Most drops occur at anything from waist to shoulder height, usually during selfies.
Of course, there are terms and conditions to stop would be Gorilla’s glassing your phone and it is all explained here.
