Phones feel smooth because they use a special kind of glass called gorilla glass. This glass is super thin and has tiny bumps that make it feel like you’re touching something soft, not hard, just like how a rubber ball feels squishy when you push on it.
Examples
- Your phone feels like it's made of liquid because the glass is treated to be very smooth.
- You can slide your fingers over your phone without it feeling rough or bumpy.
- It’s almost like your phone has a soft, squishy layer under its surface.
