**Abstract:** In an interview with ABC TV, Tim Cook confirmed that the new Mesa factory is being used to produce sapphire glass, addressing previous speculation. Now, fresh rumors are circulating. According to Taiwan's Apple Daily, Apple’s sapphire iPhone front glass has entered trial production, and Foxconn, Apple’s main manufacturing partner, has reportedly assembled at least 100 units equipped with sapphire screens for Apple.
While 100 units may seem like a small number, it marks a significant milestone. Replacing Gorilla Glass with sapphire on the iPhone’s front panel represents a major shift in design and durability. Sapphire glass is far more scratch-resistant and offers better protection, which could significantly enhance the device’s longevity and appeal.
It’s not just Foxconn that’s involved. Rumors suggest that Apple’s two primary sapphire glass suppliers, Synopsys and Bern Optics, have started investing in advanced machinery and tools, signaling a potential expansion in sapphire glass production. Currently, the sapphire glass supplied by these vendors is only used in the rear camera module and the Touch ID sensor of the iPhone 5s.
Cook’s confirmation of sapphire glass manufacturing, combined with reports of Foxconn’s successful trial runs, strongly suggests that Apple is preparing for a future iPhone model featuring a sapphire front cover. This development could represent a major step forward in both material innovation and product quality for the company.
