Gorilla Glass

[Mike-J-G]

Does anyone know if the Surface 3 has Gorilla glass? I don't see it in Microsoft's specs. People have mentioned a more paper like feel when writing with the pen. I'm hoping Microsoft has not put a coating on the glass to give it some texture at the expense of hardness. To me, scratch resistance is more important than having a paper-like feel.

No idea on the glass, but the way I read the reviews is that the paper-like feels had more to do with the pen than the screen. I don't recall which review, but one of them said/implied that the new pen has a slightly rubberized tip (probably not even remotely the right way of saying it) that makes it resist more like a ball point pen.

I have no hands-on experience. Caveat emptor, etc.

They answered in the AMA that it is Gorilla Glass.
