smartphone screen

Gorilla glass panel

The display surface of a smartphone—the glass panel where images appear and touch input is received.

Smartphone screens dominate daily life, faces illuminated by their glow on subways and in beds.

Screen size, resolution, and durability are major selling points.

A cracked smartphone screen is a common modern misfortune: I dropped my phone and shattered the screen.
