Or two meters on asphalt.
, but Victus was a big step forward and Corning says it’s maintaining the same level as that.)
Corning wouldn’t say if there was a specific breakthrough in materials science that now lets phones survive drops on concrete — rather, it sounds like a choice. Gorilla Glass division VP Scott Forester tells me the company actively decided to protect against concrete with this generation of glass, adjusting the composition and “stress profiles” until engineers found something they were satisfied with.
Why concrete, specifically? It’s what phonemakers were asking for. “Over 30 percent of the drops they were having were on concrete, more than any other surface,” says Forester. It wasn’t always that way. Even a couple years back, “it was about survival on smooth surfaces,” Forester says. But as smartphone glass got stronger, people wouldn’t wind up cracking their phones until they dropped them on rougher pavement. “What we learned over time is about 75 percent of the drop failures come on rough surfaces, asphalt or rough granite or concrete for that matter,” he adds.The weight and size of a phone is another thing that’s changed over the years.
