Stylish Yet Tough Strength, durability and stylish good looks are provided through the 100% aluminum chassis. The lightweight material means that it is less likely to be bent, warped or dented than other materials. Colored aluminum is anodized so there’s no paint to chip and heat dissipation and corrosion resistance is improved. Tougher Glass Added strength and smoothness are provided by the Corning® Gorilla® Glass NBT™ touchscreen and Corning® Gorilla® Glass touchpad. Gorilla® glass provides greater toughness and scratch resistance for the display, and for the touchpad it provides a slicker smoother feel than regular plastic.
