That clearly was a defective panel , it either had impurities from the manufacturing process that caused a weak spot in the structure , and we all saw how a small chip in a glass panel can extend , or it had an imbalance in the internal stress of the glass that caused it to shatter , see all the tempered glass tables shattering out of nowhere for apparently no reason .

My HTC Incredible has Gorilla glass, will not purchase a phone without it, there is no reason for these companies not to use Gorilla glass since they charge us an arm and a leg for these smart phones. And screen protectors make these new beautifull screens look like crap.

Old video. I did this to my og Droid and it didn't scratch.

The reason is that keys are made of brass which cannot scratch glass.

Gorilla Glass is not a big deal

Gorilla glass scratches under normal conditions... my bionic had a scratch after a week of normal usage. Buy a nice screen protector people.

Normal use, what do you actually do with your phone, don't tell me you drive nails with it, my Incredible looks as new as when I first bought it, almost two years ago.

I put always put a screen protector on my D1.... Can stand to have scratches in my screens so either way i always protect it. Just in case. I dout it would scratch though.... Someone should take some wet/dry sand paper to it and see.
