Moto G Power screen material question, what is it?

[jim5137]

Does anyone know if the Moto G Power has Gorilla Glass, ar any type of glass screen? Someone at Google Fi said it was Gorilla Glass 5, which I doubt, but hope. The specs on the Moto site don't say, so I have no idea. Tried the chat at the moto site, and they were no help at all.

Thanks, in advance!

One article on redit claims they talked to chat support and said it was NEG Nippon Electric Glass https://www.reddit.com/r/MotoG/comments/g64css/do_the_newest_moto_gs_have_gorilla_glass/

I talked to chat support today, and they're clueless. One gave the link to the specs, which I had already seen, and show nothing. Then they said they'd look into it and email me. That didn't happen. So now, I have no idea. I appreciate the reply!

Yeah was looking up the specs on few websites and none mentioned it, I'm going with not likely GG 5, your welcome!

I agree. That's a good additional selling point, if it's used, so I doubt they'd forget to list that in the specs. I still wonder about the NEG Nippon Electric Glass, but maybe I'll email them and ask them. If it's any kind of glass, opposed to plastic, it's a plus.

I highly doubt its Gorilla glass 5, but I've dropped mine twice (hardwood floor, concrete sidewalk) with no issues..and thats with a slim, clear case. The reason I doubt it's gg5 is because of cost..even at release these werent expensive phones..but it could have an older version of Gorilla glass, and thats fine by me since I've never cracked any android phone with Corning glass installed.

Is NEG Nippon Electric Glass as good as Gorilla Glass?
