Anonymous, 06 Nov 2024You didn't read the article properly. Let me explain
... moreIt is lie.
Almost all moto G from 2023 had gorilla 3.
While not all edge phones had gorilla.
40 Neo has japanese glass, despite some tech sites reported GG3 .
Someone last year , vivo I guess had phone with dragontail ( Asahi) , while most phones with GG.

EU is just Br... moreXiaomi does use their own glass for their higher end phones... but they still use Gorilla Glass for their other phones.
Also... I don't think anyone other than Xiaomi is using Xiaomi's glass...

Corning is kinda forcing companies by requiring them to buy only from them and that's how they're killing the competition. There might be much better glass options out there, such as Kunlun, Longjing, Dragontail etc, but you rarely see them on phones because Corning probably is trying to prevent others from taking over their market share

“The Commission is concerned that the agreements that Corning put in place with OEMs and finishers may have excluded rival glass producers from large segments of the market, thereby reducing customer choice, increasing prices, and stifling innovation to the detriment of consumers worldwide.”
Increasing prices but also offering price matching? Explain that lol

Offering bulk discounts and price matching is anti trust now? That's called being competitive, it's not like corning is telling companies they can ONLY use their glass for 5+ years or anything.
Euro commission is just money hungry and want to look like they're actually doing something

Well I'm not surprised, because they're just good at marketing their overrated product. The product itself is average and in the end it's still fragile glass that breaks easily. Just look at any samsung flagship since the past few years, all of them had the latest glass from corning and yet the phones broke right on the first drop. Can you trust this company ? I won't
