Gorilla vs Sapphire Fenix glass test!

Hey, guys, this video popped in my feed and it’s great as I was looking for something like this. For those who don’t speak Russian, the fun starts at around 4:13

That video is hilarious. The guy must have money to burn. It's amazing how cloudy and reflective the sapphire looks compared to the gorilla glass in that video. While I don't notice this in daily use with my F6x sapphire, it's pretty obvious in the video. However, the video also makes pretty clear (pun intended) that the gorilla glass is more scratch prone than the sapphire. The one test he didn't do, which is the more real world test for me, is to strike the face with a sharp surface like a rock (not a smooth surface like a ball bearing). Given what happened with the grinder, I would suspect that the sapphire would resist damage better than the gorilla glass in such a situation.

I would love a sapphire crystal with the clarity of the gorilla glass. F8x?
