Comment The missing information here: is it feasible? (Score 1) 189
Is it feasible to make sapphire smartphone screens which are not too shatter-prone? or not?
Are the properties of the material at that physical thickness and expanse just not good enough?
Or could it be done, if done more carefully?
Never mind the bolloxed business deal and manufacturing process in this case, is it feasible in principle at this stage of physics and engineering knowhow?
If so, isn't someone else going to pick up the slack here?
