I also ran my screwdriver key accross it in the store, and it did not scratch
Maybe a little out of topic, does the thunderbolt have gorilla glass? Asking because if so, its sucks because I take good care of my phones and my t bolt already have few light scratches....

The product list on Corning's site in a bit confusing. I've read numerous places online that HTC has yet to license Gorilla Glass, including the Evo forums here where people were complaining about how easily it scratches.

Would be surprising to me if HTC hasn't had a Gorilla Glass affiliation for a long time now. The glass on my Eris has always been 100% scratch free. No protector or anything.
Check the link two or three messages up (to the Corning "Gorilla Glass" site). HTC as far back as the Incredible (even further, really) use it. The Thunderbolt is supposed to, sure doesn't sound like it, though. ??
So I know the first post says that the charge has gorilla glass but it isnt listed on their site, so do we have it or not on the droid charge?
Yes!! Samsung Charge have Gorilla Glass. I know its not listed on the Site I contacted Samsung and verified, also I went back to Verizon store and talk to the manager he showed me a little demo on the Samsung Charge Display he took his car keys and tried to scratch the screen with no sucess and now I am convince..
Ok cool just double checking. Very strange that Corning doesnt have it listed on their site though.....
It all depends on how often the page gets updated, and who is responsible for updating it. The delayed launch could have caused problems as well.

omg I wanna cry.... but this is good to know.... don't drop it from ear height or perhaps shoulder height if you're a bit taller then this guy... and as long as you don't carry razor blades in your pocket, there's need for a screen protector
I hate you for making me cringe, but thanks for the post
Yeah, kinda bummed I put a screeen protector on. Prob. take it off now.
Yea I put one on and the screen didnt look as nice as when its bare. Whats the point of having these beautiful displays if u r going to cover it. I have a bare screen right now and it's amazing !!!!!

i had a ClearProtector on my vibrant but it looked too dirty and old so i put it off and now is shiny like diamond (?)
If you guys have been in the Accessories part of the Captivate forum.. you'll hear alot of people's opinions with different screen protectors.
Such as me who's currently rocking me some PhantomSkinz.. I seriously don't notice I have a screen protector on unless I try to dig my nail into the protector lol but why would I do that!? Not to mention it doesn't really have that rubbery texture.
It's really awesome. if you're not a fan of PhantomSkinz someone said SGP skin protectors are awesome. The user even said it actually made the touchscreen much more sensitive to the touch. just a heads up for those who aren't sure about screen protectors.
The video btw shows some scratches on the device .. a lot actually.. so reconsider if you value your phone's looks
Screen protectors belong on cheap plastic panels. I enjoy my phone so much more when touching glass. Just make sure to get a BlackBerry like sleeve for putting it in your pockets. Since going bare, I will never allow plastic screen guards to deface my touch devices again.

Lots of discussions on this in other forums. Some people swear the phone doesn't have gorilla glass, some do. The vague press release (dated the 24th of august i think) says that Samsung uses Gorilla glass in the galaxy S handset - but it doesn't mention which ones. Engadget ran the story and claimed that all US Galaxy S varieties have gorilla glass. Corning mentions that is part of the AMOLED manufacturing process.
It seems that Gorilla glass is in the phones - it would not make sense to make different AMOLED sandwiches when they are so expensive to start with - but I would love to see something official that says "The Captivate uses Gorilla Glass".

I would like to see the same. I have a small scratch on my screen from being in my pocket. Its one of those scratches you cant see unless the light reflects off the screen just right and the screen off. I know its there but its not noticable. Plus i dont ever keep anything in my pocket where my phone is other than my phone. thats why im iffy about the captivate having gorilla glass.
I got tired of having a screen protector and ripped mine off a week and a half ago. If the screen is not Gorilla Glass, its is still better than anything I have had on a phone a before. The plastic on the top front part of my phone has a few scratches on it, but I have yet to get a scratch on the screen. Only thing I am using now is the Bodyglove case. The screen feels so much better.
... Despite the fact that it is gorilla glass ( or not? ) my screen have two light small scratches on it... and i ' baby ' my phone too. >.>
This article gives confirmation:
http://www.intomobile.com/2010/08/2...ts-the-samsung-galaxy-s-super-amoled-screens/
[I wanted to post a link to my other post describing my experiences with Gorilla glass but I am not allowed to post a link, so I'll just repeat my message.]
Unfortunately I found out the hard way that Gorilla glass doesn't prevent scratches on the screen. The phone is only 2 months old, I am using it with a silicone skin and no screen-protector. The phone is always in my jeans-pocket, without anything else in it. And still there is a small scratch (2mm) and a dot...
I guess I have to go to screenprotectors. I cannot trust the claims of Samsung and Gorilla glass anymore. :-(
Anyone else using the sprint screen protectors for their epic? I just bought a pack and I'm really disappointed with them. They are just big enough to cover the screen it self. So there is no margin for error when putting them on. Also I think they are supposed to be anti-glare so make the beautiful screen of my epic hazy and almost pixelated. Any suggestions for decent clear screen protectors?
Does the epic really need a screen protector? I thought the screen was made from some super durable stuff?

People have been saying that the skinomi ones are too long I think... I'd recommend the phantom skinz one since I've had no problem, they have a cut out for the sensors and camera (which the skinomi does not have) and they have a lifetime guarantee.

this is the one im talking bout i ordered one it has lifetime replacements and openings for the sensors and cam it is awesome on the htc hero so i hope it continues
Well, all I know is that at least the first batch of Skinomis didn't turn out so well. See this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=746037
Too long, but possibly good customer service? And like I said, no cutouts for the lights/sensor/camera. Skinomi has gotten plenty of good reviews for other phones, but for some reason the ones for the Epic haven't been well received.

The Sprint ones are total crap. Took mine back a few hours after I bought them.
yes they are but fools wont take it back cuz i used one

Yup! I am no doubt in the minority but I have managed to scratch my screen. It was in strange circumstances having to do with hiking on a trail (and I hardly ever hike, less have my phone out...) but scratchedy it went. No 20ft heights or bouncing. Just fell face down from my pocket on a dirt path with a pebble somewhere in there. They're not invincible, people.
lol unless ur doing stuff like that you dont need a protector
under normal use pocket car table things like that no but if ur roughing it why not protect it and get a skinomi

Scratched mine easily... I have 2g steel plugs on my lobes, and the first time i heard them click against the screen I knew I'd have a problem. sure enough, there are tiny scratches from where my ear hit the screen. My fault for not putting a protector on sooner.
Also managed to put a little hairline scratch down by the menu button, but i have no clue how i did that.
Does anyone know what material was used for the screen? Crystal, Gorilla Glass, or plain old glass?

I just emailed HTC asking this question. I'll let you know when/if I get a response.
Edit: Yea, not helpful..
Dear Greg,
I know that having the screen information is very important to you. We know that the screen is not Gorilla Glass, or the manual would say this with a brand marker. We do not know the material of the screen, since we are only the technical support department. The only information we have is that the screen is 4.3 inch WVGA resolution with pinch-to-zoom.
To send a reply to this message or let me know I have successfully answered your question log in to our ContactUs site using your email address and your ticket number 11USCW10ENA001810.

I just spoke with an HTC service rep and he has no knowledge of Dow listing Inspire 4g as using the Gorilla glass and also he has heard of an incident where a dropped Inspire 4G ended up with a cracked display. I just sent an inquiry to Grilla Glass website about the timeline where HTC started to use their product so hopefully they'll write me back with an answer. I am tired of using screen protecter no matter how great they may look.

You do realize that gorilla glass can be cracked and scratched right? I cracked the screen on my captivate quite easily. Gorilla glass is better than normal glass but not impervious to breakage.
I believe gorilla glass is resistant to scratches however such properties make it easier to shatter. I may be incorrect but that is how I understand it.
Gorilla Glass.
Seems they're using it on all the HTC products with capacative screens. However, I still use a screen protector anyway.

Regarding the importance of the brand name 'Gorilla Glass', I wouldn't discount other phones that might use a similar technology but call it a different name. We often refer to a class of products by their brand names (Ketchup, Kleenex, Q-tip, Coke, BandAid) forgetting there are a bunch of very high quality products that perform the same function and in many cases can be even better than the original.

I think that means it's Gorilla Glass, I talked to a guy from ATT Tech who seemed to know the Android products pretty well and I mentioned that I had been told about some "Military grade glass?" and he said "Yeah, it's got Gorilla Glass.." HTC, and many others might not want it known but the Inspire's on Corning's website and I don't think it's a free advertisement.

OK, just noticed a bloody scratch on the phone. It's in my pocket (on it's own, nothing EVER goes in the same pocket as my phone) and when not in my pocket it's face up on my desk at work or on the coffee table at home so I've no idea how it happened
Would anyone here look to get it replaced as I'm tempted to?
Gorilla Glass is simply not scratch proof
Compared to other screens(displays) it is more durable, but it is still possible to brake and/or scratch it.
If I was within my 14 days I'd return it, they didn't check any of the phones I returned for scratches and what not...just for the problems I stated.

HTC (or any other manufacturer tells operators "extremely high durability"
Most of them (80%) do understand that as : unbreakable,unscratchable , anti-fingerprints but this is simply not true. (Smart step form HTC )
as for the people who sell the phones. They are just simple sales man they mostly don't even know how phones hardware works or in this case what Gorilla glass is.

I know that! I wasn't conned into buying the phone but even the Gorilla Glass website says that it should withstand a bit of fluff (or whatever has managed to get onto the screen of my phone). I have had a lot of phones and always do my research before getting one and, as it happens, I won this Sensation.
As for screen itself, it is contoured as it should be but regardless the screen is ALWAYS face up so it shouldn't matter
Maybe they upgrade it to King Kong glass instead of Gorilla.

Seriously, though, I can't see how this has happened as I'm anal about my phones so I wouldn't have let this happen. All other users, take heed and get a screen protector/case if you've not got one already
Gorilla glass is brilliant imo but its not bomb proof. I have the slightest little scratch on my screen but I dread to think what it would be like with normal glass. But I was still disappointed, so now iv found some good screen protectors and all of a sudden aswell as protection, I can't even see the scratch anymore.

As a fellow scouser and vodafone migrent i feel compelled to help.
I got my Sensation from their forum for an early upgrade all went well, the first 2 and a half weeks i had that screen problem where it wouldnt unlock.
i contacted the forum and they took too long to respond, so I took a step to call 191, they where fantastic, despite it being way out of the 7day cool off by about 10 days they exchanged it with out fuss.
my advice would be to call them and not use the forum as they are very slow to respond, and when calling do not mention a scratch, they will deem this as your fault so use the 'my screen is not working properly, when i touch it, 2 out of 5 presses are not registered'
i am 95% positive that way you will have a new phone by the end of next week!
edit: just realised you have insurance, I didnt so I am even more positive they will exchange it!

You will probably find the scratch is on the anti-glare/anti-fingerprint coating on the screen rather than the glass, assuming it has that coating on the gorilla glass like the GS2 has.
Let's be honest, a small scratch caused by yourself isn't really a justifiable reason for swapping a phone, unless you lie Vodafone will refuse it. And that goes double for the insurance.

But it wasn't caused by myself. I treat my phones like the most precious thing in my life, polishing it every other time I use it to remove finger prints/grease, etc. It lives alone in my pocket when moving between sites otherwise it's on my desk or coffee table with nothing else around it so I just can't see what scratched it.
Since I've had the phone I've even turned my pockets inside out to check for debris as I didn't wanna scratch it until I'd got a case. I'll see what Vodafone say and go from there. See Martin Fields have released a screen protector so I'll get one ASAP as it was perfect on my Desire

Unless it was on the phone when you bought it, it was caused by yourself, even if you can't think of an explanation of how it happened.
I know how you feel, I have a tiny scratch on my GS2 which also has GG and I can't think for the life of me how it happened -- I put a screen protector on it two days after getting it and changed it for a better protector about a week ago. While changing the protectors I noticed the scratch which could have only happened in the first two days while I was treating it like gold dust. Luckily, it's so small it can't be seen through the screen protector so I'm not bothered about changing it.

You might ask what kind of glass is on our Desire S? I asked the same question from HTC support and the answer was: Asahi Glass.
Please share your experience with the glass on Desire S; do you use any protection? if not, did you managed to scratch it?

My Desire S screen gets scratched very easily, I've got on that is pretty deep. My old [classic] desire seemed to have a stronger screen. Don't remember any deep scratches on that, just small ones that I pretty much didn't notice.
It really sucks to have to see through a screen guard...I wish HTC had put more though in it.

Scratch resistant, not scratch proof. -_-" (Look at any wrist watch, it will say water resistant, not water proof).
I've accidentally thrown a padlock onto the screen of my phone (with a screen protector on it), it had a chip on the screen protector, but the screen was pristine when I took off the screen protector and applied a new one.
It does have Gorilla! As previously stated the "proof" is here: http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/products-with-gorilla/htc

The plot thickens.
Over the first two to three weeks fine scratches started to develop on my phone's display which were visible under a certain angle. I use a screen protector now for convenience.
I'm startin to think some of them have Gorilla glass and others don't. LIke the way they build quality issues at one point. Because I had one and within 2 weeks I saw two scratches, I managed to get it swapped in store, I've had the second one for about 3 months now, don't use a cover, and there isn't a single scratch or mark whatsoever.

I believe that is very likely.
I work in the electronics industry and there is tremendous focus on component cost. If Ashai glass is cheaper at the time and deemed "good enough to do the job" then they will buy a batch of that.

Just smash your phone screen with a hammer. If it breaks, it's not Gorilla. If it survives, it is.
Even if your phone breaks, at least you will have solved the mystery 100%
After 6 months with no protection, no scratch. How do you guys handle and keep your Desire S?
No you see, if YOU say the Desire S hasn't got Gorilla Glass it's up to YOU to prove it.
We already have the Gorilla Glass webpage showing the Desire S HAS Gorilla Glass, you however have shown no proof at all.
I've kept my DS in the same pocket as my lighter and keys for over a month now and it still looks completely new, not a single scratch anywhere.
My proof is HTC support; I asked them and the answer was Asahi glass.
