Challenge
We use smartphones for just about everything: to stay in touch with friends, conduct business, buy movie tickets, and to hail a ride. The smartphone enables modern life, but modern life doesn’t stop for a cracked smartphone screen.
The difference is clear: The probability that a high-end smartphone with Xensation® Up. will survive a drop unscathed is ten times greater than with conventional alumino-silicate glass.
People
“SCHOTT’s new Xensation® Up. cover glass increases survival rates as a result of the material’s improved performance, proven in set drop tests with typical drop heights where it beat out current AS cover glass by a multiple of 10.”
— Dr. Lutz Klippe, Head of Product Group Cover
“As a trusted partner, we have provided LAS cover glass since 2011 with fast supply and agile reaction times, providing a reliable product quality for our high-end smartphone cover glass Xensation® Up.”

The unique glass composition of Xensation® Up. combined with more than 130 years’ experience in making specialty glass results in one of the most robust and reliable cover glass available today.
As such, it opens up completely new possibilities in smartphone screen design – for example, the ‘waterfall display’ of vivo’s 2019 / 2020 flagship phone, the vivo NEX 3, is proof of it.
Xensation® Up. is manufactured in Jena, the glass is transported as large format panes to China, where it is processed with high precision into cover glass. With a faster, stronger chemical strengthening process, Xensation® Up. promises “Made in Germany” technical innovation with processing expertise and scale of Chinese manufacturers. These two factors unlock a new dimension in premium cover glass and flexible processing options.
Let’s take a big step towards the ultimate vision: unbreakable smartphones.
