does the htc vivid have gorilla glass or is the glass at least hard/durable enough to prevent scratches?
No, it isn't Gorilla glass. It's plenty durable, but I strongly recommend a good screen protector and a good case, a Seidio Active or equivalent at minimum.

Or perhaps just be a bit more careful with your expensive equipment... :S

The Vivid doesn't have Gorilla Glass... If you've used any phone with Gorilla Glass it would have been obvious because you can even feel the difference on the screen. The Vivid screen also smudges more easily than any Gorilla Glass screen I've ever used.
Sony says the same thing about their Ion screen that isn't Gorilla glass, but it scratches very easily. I wouldn't buy any phone without a Gorilla Glass screen or something equipvalent. I dropped my Skyrocket on the face and it slid and there's not even a hint of a scratch on the screen. That would have destroyed the Vivid or Ion's screen, probably even cracked it... That SR took it like a champ. Have dropped my Vibrant on the face on Concrete and it was perfect afterwards as well.
Gorilla Glass or go home, IMO.
Then why does the Corning website and HTC say it does? I called HTC about something else and asked and was told that it definitely has Gorilla Glass.

Please, get a screen protecter and stop whining.![]()
