But it turns out that whatever the trade-offs it took to get even this far, holding up better against scratches will actually make your display less likely to shatter in the long run. And despite the expected Covid supply chain disruptions, Bayne says the company is ready to meet the demand.
Which means that the next time you trade in your smartphone—which these days may be a couple of years down the road—the new one you get is going to hold up a whole lot better against the sharp things in your pocket. This story has been updated to clarify that Corning provides a different formulation of glass for the iPhone. Scratch That Itch. The quickest way to get rid of scratches from your phone is via the use of vegetable oil. However, it is worthy of note that this solution is only temporary.
Having said, what you need to do is apply a small drop of the oil on the scratch and rub it to the point where the scratch is removed. While doing this, ensure that you do not use too much oil as this can make your screen appear too oily.
Also, the oil may just find its way beneath your phone. Erasers have always proven to be saviors, especially in the examination hall. However, aside from helping to clean errors in your book, they have also been quite useful in removing scratches from your phone. Because they are made from melamine foam, they can serve as very potent sandpapers. All you need to do is apply some water on the magic paper and rub it gently on the areas affected the same way you would on just about any device.
Baby powders are a solid alternative solution towards removing scratches from your mobile phone. To do this, simply add some portion of baby powder with water inside a bowl and mix it till you get a paste-like substance. When this is done, apply the mixture with a soft cloth on the areas affected.
Ensure this is done circularly and gently. The moment you have succeeded in getting rid of the scratch, get the screen wiped using a fresh and damp cloth for removing the excess substances. It should be noted that baby powders are a known alternative to using baking soda. Have you heard of car scratch removal creams? It turns out they are also quite useful in tackling issues of scratches on your phone. To get this done, all you need is a cotton swab or a clean cloth. When applying it, ensure this is done using the right amount of pressure and in a circular motion.
There is a company called Corning that makes a product called Gorilla Glass that can. Quite a few phones these days come with this durable and scratch-resistant screen. Gorilla Glass is all — thin, scratch and damage resistant. Of course, there are different versions of Gorilla Glass available that offer slightly better reliability than others.
We tell you what makes them different and even show you what people have tried to test their Gorilla Glass devices. We do recommend trying this out on your phone. User discretion is required! The glass is a thin sheet of alkali-aluminosilicate that makes the glass tougher and scratch resistant. With the improved damage resistance, the glass can survive pressures, deep cuts and scratches.

Every year, your favorite smartphone gets better specs that boost its processing speed, data security, and picture quality. But one remaining constant is scratch resistance, which does not seem to have improved year over year. But devices with that glass are still prone to scratches if you place them in the same pocket as your keys and coins. And if complaints about the iPhone X, Pixel 2, and other flagships from the last year are any sign, the situation has been getting worse, with modern phones scratching from the slightest mishandling.
So are we imagining it, or are newer versions of Gorilla Glass less scratch-proof than ever? For Corning, drop resistance takes precedence. Prior to the iPhone, touchscreen smartphones used soft plastic on top of their displays, which was suitable for a stylus, but terrible for finger touch interactions. As the Samsungs, Apples, Huaweis, and Googles of the world ask for thinner and lighter glass, Corning in turn has to make that thin glass stronger to keep up its drop resistance.
And Corning claims the latest and greatest Gorilla Glass 6, which should start showing up on phones this fall, can survive 15 drops from a one meter height. To achieve this strength, Corning has had to transform glass, which is naturally fragile.
