iPhone 6 is expected to have a 4.7in scratch resistant sapphire crystal screen. Apple discussed forming screens from super-hard “sapphire glass” 18 months ago with experts in the field, making a sapphire-fronted iPhone 6 highly likely, the Guardian has established.Apple already uses sapphire crystal for its camera lenses and the cover of the iPhone 5S's Touch ID fingerprint sensor, but the super-hard material - the third hardest known - could make excellent screens that are much more scratch resistant than traditional glass and potentially even Corning’s Gorilla Glass, which covers the majority of smartphone and tablet screens.
