At the same time smart phones are also a great example for my point: Just consider soldered on batteries and the lack of software updates or in Apples case slowing down old phones.

I guess the reason why a lot of phones use gorilla glass is that the quality difference to regular glass is more noticeable and things like scratch resistance are a little more than just pure durability.

But I have to admit that my statement was of course somewhat hyperbole :)
