Corning Gorilla Glass 4 Cornings latest composition was formulated to address

breakage the #1 consumer complaint, according to Cornings research. The new

glass is just as thin and light as previous versions, but has been formulated to
deliver dramatically improved damage resistance allowing improved in-field
performance. Corning Gorilla Glass 4 has been tested for performance when
subjected to sharp contact damage, such as asphalt and other real-world surfaces.

Benefits
Enhanced retained strength after use
High resistance to scratch and sharp contact damage

** Core index is used for FSM-based measurements since it is unaffected by

ion-exchange conditions.
