Check out this new video from Marques Brownlee that stress tests a leaked sapphire crystal iPhone 6 front panel.
The 4.7" Apple iPhone 6 will have a sapphire crystal display made by $GTAT. Sapphire crystal is used in high-end watches & camera lenses already. Let's put it through its paces!
Brownlee attempts to scratch, bend, and break the glass panel; however, is unable to do so.
"At first I was kinda tentative because I thought maybe there was a chance I might break it, maybe shatter it, but I slowly realized that there is absolutely no way I can break this display under my own power. There's no chance. I have a feeling that I could drop a rock on it but really I couldn't get the surface to even scratch a little bit at all. The worst blemish on the surface was actually my fingerprint marks and dust from handling it so much."
