Pravdou je, ze Apple nikdy oficialne nerekl, ze iPhone bude mit safirove sklo. Ze to ovsem planoval uz u iPhone 6 je velmi dobre znama vec, akorat tady nekteri maji prilis kratkou pamet. tady pro osvezeni pameti co se ve skutecnosti stalo:Apple invested in a sapphire glass manufacturing facility in Arizona, in partnership with GT Advanced Technologies. The plant was capable of producing enough sapphire glass to cover iPhone production. Unfortunately, poor design of the plant led to production shortfalls. The facility experienced several power outages which ruined batches of sapphire glass. Furthermore, some production runs were blighted by contamination. This not only led to production shortfalls, but also increased the cost of the end product. To further complicate matters, the plant did not have appropriate equipment to cut the boules.Conflict between Apple and GT arose, as the latter had to file for bankruptcy. GT couldn’t produce the quantities of sapphire glass that Apple needed, resulting in Apple purchasing less of the material than expected. No contract held Apple accountable to purchase a specific quantity of sapphire glass. Details of the court case show that Apple cut corners when constructing the facility. For example, there was no back up power supply and they purchased inappropriate boule cutting and polishing tools.Apple actually intended to construct the iPhone 6 out of sapphire glass. Due to production problems, they could only manufacture enough sapphire glass for Apple Watches. The iPhone 6 used Gorilla Glass, which is still the screen material used in all iPhones. Touch ID sensors and cameras are protected by small patches of sapphire glass. But if your iPhone’s screen was made of the same material, it would be virtually impossible to scratch.
