    Will gladly swap my tiny titanium splinters for a pair of your claws,they should save my fingers when facing days of hand weeding !!!

        We need to know how much protection against hits and falls it can take

          Sapphire glass must have a plastic glass in between (like a sandwiched sapphire-plastic-sapphire order of construction) to compensate for less shatter resistance of the glass - acting as a barrier to absorb any impact that may cause the sapphire glass to break

          A Diamond Glass w/ Plastic Glass in between will be a very durable glass

              Markobarko, 05 May 2017Please bear in mind, that Sapphire glass is a lot more fragile.The harder smth is ( same as scratch resistant ) the easier it is to shatter

                  If this proves one thing, is that HTC manufacture plants and workers involved can create remarkable hardware if given the right schematics and materials to work upon, which was clearly shown as a sign of success overhere. Hopefully other people who keep bashing this company will understand that they can make excellent quality hardware, which they did with the HTC 10 being the tank it was, but obviously they have many features to work upon on their smartphones.

                  On the topic, Tissot isnt a luxury watch brand, its a premium watch brand. Different pricepoints, with a prespective differentiation subject too of course, but its at the lowest tier of "luxury" watches, even with its 1000-4000€ price tags.

                    AnonD-229512, 05 May 2017Not stand a chance to my adamantium clawWell, we all now what will happen to Logan. And it is still not as good as my Vibranium shield (taken from Cap) or my Vibranium claws (borrowed from a certain Panther) or for that matter, even my lightsaber! :P

                    Kudos to HTC for delivering their sapphire display Ultra, something that even the mighty Apple couldn't do. And I see Zack managed to make his S8 even awesome by having a transparent back!

                        Surviving droptest are far more important!

                          Got to say HTC can be really innovative and classy at times. Usually very solid builds. Loved the One S, now the A9 and the anticipate the new U 11. Nice

                              Doesn't change the fact that it's still a "waste of space"

                                Is it crack resistant?

                                    They should also put it on camera lenses for extra protection. HTC actually builds solid phones. My father's m7 is still working after 4 years. He even play pokemon go on it lately which should fry the motherboard.
                                    IF ONLY HTC KNOWS HOW TO LISTEN,MARKET AND PRICE ITS PHONES!
