The first generation of the product launched in 2007, followed by Gorilla Glass 2 in 2012 and Gorilla Glass 3 in 2013. Many flagships released in 2018 feature Gorilla Glass 5, which first released in 2016. But major companies have made the switch to Gorilla Glass 6 in recent months too.
Sapphire glass would have made the already larger IPhone 6 much heavier as the Sapphire screen is nearly 30% heavier. Secondly, Sapphire Glass would have had to have been cut individually for each and every phone produced, whereas Gorilla Glass is able to be cut to size uniformly and made stronger by chemical intervention. Sapphire is hard and resist scratches but it is much more likely to crack and shatter when dropped and the toughened “gorilla glass” that Apple uses. Sapphire is more expensive and less transparent than glass. For a small display like the watch where scratching is more likely than dropping, it makes sense but not on a phone.

Krysterna Crystal. An obscure watch glass, ‘Krysterna’ is the name given to the crystal used by the brand Stuhrling and its subsidiary Akribos brand. Little is known about this material and its performance. Stuhrling make plenty of bold claims, marketing this as the best material for a watch dial. A primary selling point being that this
Indeed, GTAT’s processes, as exciting as they are, are relatively new, especially with larger substrates. These production issues reduced the likelihood of sapphire on Apple's iPhone 6. 3. A few
CORNING ® GORILLA ® GLASS 6. Our devices are always at hand — which means they’re always at risk for potentially damaging drops. To solve for this, Corning scientists engineered tougher, drop-resistant Corning ® Gorilla ® Glass 6. In our lab tests, Gorilla Glass 6 survived drops from up to 1.6 meters onto hard, rough surfaces. I recorded a podcast with two professors of material sciences to get to the bottom of the glass vs. sapphire debate. by Corning is twice as tough as Gorilla Glass 3 and provides 80 percent

Sapphire is around 67 percent heavier than Gorilla Glass, with a density of 3.98 g/cm3 compared to the 2.54 g/cm3 used for Apple’s existing iOS devices. and much stronger than Gorilla Glass
Some people 'just don't want to see' the difference between sapphire and gorilla glass. Amazon also sells scratch-resistant tempered glass screen protectors at very cheap prices. And I did a search and found that AR coated sapphires can be scratched. It was easy to see posts about scratched sapphires in the luxury watch community. Ahead of Apple’s new product announcement Tuesday, the chairman and CEO of Corning made his case for why mobile device makers should use his company’s Gorilla Glass over competing sapphire The wonderful thing about plastic and glass crystals is the fact that they can be custom cut, shaped, or trimmed to fit different watch cases. Typically in the luxury watch field, sapphire crystals are preferred. Sapphire is extremely strong and scratch resistant – making it the top choice for a fine timepiece.
There is a video of one watch manufacturer dropping large ball bearings onto various watch crystals from a height of roughly 20". Results are interestingI'll try to find the video. In the meantime, there is THIS video of gorilla glass vs sapphire smartphone screens being tested, and demonstrating the brittle nature of sapphire.
