Gorilla glass 4??? Unverified by corninggorillaglass.com

Well it certainly would be nice if there was a way we could verify the claims to make us feel better. I don't mind spending money but I don't want to find fraud in the product specs. And if a product is being misrepresented, it needs to be exposed.

Not sure MS is the type of the company to falsify information (particularly specs) of their products. This would open them up to a massive law suit which I don't think they want to deal with.

Are you not overreacting on this? Do you really only buy it if it has gorilla 4 and do you expect that this glass never will break? And how about the other component's do you also need prove?

I've had my 950xl for 6 weeks and it's already badly scratched...normal usage. i've never had it on my Samsung S6+ Edge or the note 4. I don't believe it's gorilla glass anyway

One post. Yeah, I'm convinced. /s

I have a 950 xl, it seems fine. It clearly states Gorilla Glass 4 on the UK MS store web site. In the UK and I think the rest of the EU, don't know about the US, a false claim like that would be flatly illegal, it falls under trades description legislation which I'm certain MS are very aware of.

GG4 is less scratch proof then GG3, but better at taking falls.

It feels like gorilla glass 4. It's a more flexible glass and less hard than the 3 on my Lumia 830.


UPDATE: I emailed corning, we will see what they say.

I've had mine since it came out Dec 24th here and not a single scratch. I even had a drive array fall on it and it's fine. I had zippers hit against it too. So yah you must really take care of your investments hehe.

Because of non-disclosure clauses in some of our customer contracts, we cannot identify all the devices that feature Corning? Gorilla? Glass, so we encourage you to contact the manufacturer of your device.

I've had 950XL since first shipping units and the screen still looks new. I don't use any screen protection as is the case with all my Lumias. I put glass on the iPhone 6s as it scratches a little easier than say my Samsung G6S. I find Lumias have stood up better than most on the glass front.
