The Nokia 8.1 uses NEG Dinorex instead of Gorilla Glass

02 January 2019
While not as popular as Corning, NEG has supplied the strengthened glass for a bunch of phones, including the new nubia Red Magic Mars.

        That's unfair Nokia is cutting corners with the protection, Nokia said they put Corning gorilla glass on the 8.1 but they didn't. But what glass? Not tempered glass,not gorilla glass but just glass, honestly I'm disappointed Nokia, you lied i heard good stuff about you and you did not deliver. I actually have the 8.1 and when I dropped it ONCE!!! It cracked across the screen then after a week I found a random crack AGAIN!!!!! On the edge of the screen.

        My opinion is the phone is great and it's powered by android one but because of the glass I don't recommend getting this phone but if you do then, DO NOT use it until you buy a case and a tempered glass screen protector.
        Thank you.

          Dinorex is way better than the gorilla glass cuz a youtuber test its durability by dropping it from 6 ft height it didnt break and then he dropped it from 10ft height

All glass (strengthened or not, scratches at 6-7). GG5 and 6 have made huge advancements in drop protection. One the other side Dragontrail and Dinorex have refused to comment on drop protection.

                    The new iterations of Gorilla Glass don't mean anything, Gorilla Glass 3 scratches at the same level as Gorilla Glass 6 which is just thinner than GG3, more people need to watch and subscribe to the king of phone durability videos, JerryRigEverything. NEG Dinorex is fine, it should scratch at the same level as phones with GG.
