Corning this week announced Gorilla Glass SR+, a scratch resistant glass intended for smartwatches and other wearables.
Corning says Gorilla Glass SR+ is strong and provides the same optical clarity and touch sensitivity of its normal glass while also boosting resistance to impact damage by 70%.
Gorilla Glass SR+ is also easier to read in bright light.
Corning says wearables with the new glass are on deck for later this year.
