iPhone 6’s sapphire crystal display is strong

Marques Brownlee is a talented vlogger that got a lot of attention recently. The other day, he uploaded a video where he tests the iPhone 6 sapphire crystal display and its durability. Marques says that the display is really durable, and he thinks that it will be impossible to bend in a normal usage scenario.



Although we don’t have 100% reasons to believe that the display in the video above is really made ​​of sapphire glass, the test showed impressive resistance to scratching and light bending. So far, Apple used the sapphire material to protect the iPhone’s camera and the Touch ID. Increasing the iPhone’s display resistance seems to be the reasonable next step.
