Well I don't know if it would make a difference for sure either, but it might. The top screen of the K3 isn't gorilla glass and when I dropped mine a while back the substrate did crack. Would it still have done if it had been protected by gorilla glass? I don't know, but it may have survived. Certainly I've dropped my Kindle Fire several times and it has yet to have a serious scratch much less a damaged screen.
