Corning Incorporated had a breakthrough in cover glass technology. Gorilla Glass 6 is the company’s most durable cover glass to date. Corning Incorporated announced today that Guangdong OPPO Mobile Telecommunications Corp., Ltd will be the first one to utilize the new Corning Gorilla Glass 6 in their new flagship. Gorilla Glass 6 is very reliable as it survived 15 drops from 1 meter onto rough surfaces. OPPO was also one of the first leading adopters who utilized Gorilla Glass 5 on its broad range of smartphones. OPPO’s Find X and R15 models are protected by Gorilla Glass 5.

We are excited to have OPPO adopt Gorilla Glass 6. OPPO’s new flagship model will provide consumers, who depend on their smartphone for every interaction in their digital lives, increased protection against multiple drops. – John Bayne, the Vice President and General Manager of Corning Gorilla Glass

Andy Wu, the Vice President of OPPO, said, “OPPO and Corning have always maintained a close working relationship, which has enabled a superior user experience for consumers through multiple versions of OPPO smartphones. We are excited to be the first to adopt Gorilla Glass 6 on our upcoming smartphone, and we believe that consumers around the globe will enjoy an unprecedented experience.”

OPPO is one of the leading global smartphone brands and has started an entirely new era of smartphone selfies. According to IDC in 2017, OPPO ranked fourth in terms of shipments in the global smartphone market, and first in the China market.

Corning Gorilla Glass has been designed into more than 6 billion devices by more than 45 major brands. The latest Corning Gorilla Glass 6 is just another proof of Corning’s commitment to innovation. The Gorilla Glass was first launched back in 2007 and since then it has become the cover glass of choice for device manufacturers. It was formed through Corning’s propriety fusion draw process and strengthened through an ion-exchange process.

Corning has released cautionary statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which cover substantial risks and uncertainties. They have provided a long list of risk factors. The complete listing of risks is described in their annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.
