Disappointing: Apple Watch's sapphire screen is so bad

The low production volume is only one of the reasons why Apple is not in a hurry to use sapphire screens on the iPhone. The most fundamental reason is probably that Apple cannot truly control it. Just look at the Apple Watch.

The Apple Watch is equipped with a sapphire screen. It is true that this type of screen is harder and more resistant to wear and scratches, but the biggest problem is that it is not resistant to falling. It should be OK for such a small area of ​​the Apple Watch, right?

Now many Apple Watch users have complained to varying degrees that it is not resistant to drops, especially the screen, which is too fragile.

Although the $350 Apple Watch Sports has a reinforced Ion-X glass screen that resists scratches, it's still very fragile, and the sapphire glass on the regular Apple Watch is just as easy to break if dropped on the floor.

Now many users have uploaded pictures of their newly purchased Apple Watches with cracked screens. It seems that even sapphire glass cannot save these poor Apple Watches.
