Unbreakable screens are a myth - just buy a cover and you'll be fine.

Research on toughened glass, or practically unbreakable glass, as the article claims, is in the realms of the ordinary every day research I'd expect.
And industrial applications for it would no doubt be numerous, irrespective of whether you choose a case as a precaution.
Yeah, snippy response from me, but your simplistic sentiment to just cover your phone seemed to call out for it. There are other uses, and yet to be understood uses for this sort of breakthrough.
And while others here have said the research may not get picked up (for various reasons), aren't they just positive souls
The research as it stands may not get picked up, instead it may be used to further understanding in any number of other ways.
But that's just my opinion.
