As the new year approaches, many mobile accessory brands, distributors, and retailers are already preparing their Q1 purchasing plans and new year stocking strategies before the CNY holiday. As the latest iPhone models continue to drive demand in the premium smartphone segment, selecting the right screen protection solution has become a key part of early-year product line planning.
What Is Flexible Glass?
Flexible glass screen protectors are emerging as a smarter alternative to traditional tempered glass—offering improved durability, a premium touch experience, and better compatibility with modern iPhone designs. For partners looking to upgrade their product lineup in the new year, flexible glass represents a forward-looking choice. At YCYMO, we specialize in producing this next-generation screen protector material. Our flexible glass solutions are designed especially for modern iPhone models, where gesture control, edge sensitivity, and visual clarity are critical—making them well suited for new year product upgrades and bulk purchasing plans.
How It Works
The structure of YCYMO’s flexible glass is a multi-layer composite engineered for performance. It features a flexible glass-type protector constructed on a hardened PET composite base, combined with a Korean-imported substrate film and high-viscosity optical glue. This layered architecture ensures strong adhesion, optical clarity, and consistent performance—key factors for distributors and OEM buyers planning stable supply before the CNY holiday. One of the key components is the nano-coating applied to the surface, delivering a water contact angle of up to 105° even after repeated surface abrasion. This ensures long-lasting oleophobic performance, helping the screen resist smudges and maintain optical clarity over time. This coating also contributes to its smooth touch response, replicating the feel of original glass.
Key Advantages of Flexible Glass
Closer to Real Glass Feel
YCYMO’s flexible glass protectors are designed to simulate the original iPhone screen experience. Smooth touch & high clarity ensure that gestures such as swiping, tapping, or zooming feel as natural as using the phone without protection. The visual transparency of our nano flexible glass is on par with traditional tempered glass, but without the bulk. This makes it an ideal option for brands targeting premium users in the new year, while maintaining a slim profile that works well with most phone cases.
Bend Resistant and Shatterproof
One of the major drawbacks of traditional tempered glass is its rigidity. While it offers great hardness, it tends to crack or shatter under impact, especially at the edges. In contrast, YCYMO’s X1-Dust Free BOX UNBREAKABLE FLEXIBLE GLASS provides strong, flexible, unbreakable protection. Its hybrid structure allows it to flex under pressure rather than break. Whether it’s accidental drops or pressure from sitting with your phone in your pocket, our flexible protector maintains its integrity.
Scratch and Impact Protection
Our flexible screen protectors offer superior scratch resistance thanks to their multi-layered design, effectively resisting scratches caused by common everyday items such as keys or coins. At the same time, it provides a balanced combination of surface hardness and shock absorption—an important consideration for distributors seeking to reduce return rates in the early months of the new year.
Comparison with Other Screen Protectors
Flexible Glass vs Tempered Glass
Tempered glass remains a popular choice for many users due to its hardness. However, its inflexibility can lead to edge cracking and poor compatibility with curved screens. Due to its rigidity, tempered glass is more susceptible to edge cracking, particularly on curved displays or when paired with ultra-thin or curved-edge phone cases. YCYMO’s flexible hybrid glass offers a smarter alternative. It’s bend-resistant, shatterproof, and better suited for today’s ultra-slim iPhone designs.
Flexible Glass vs Hydrogel Film
Hydrogel films are known for their softness and self-healing properties, but they fall short when it comes to lasting clarity and protection. Over time, they become hazy and less effective against scratches. In contrast, YCYMO’s nano flexible glass offers longer-lasting clarity and protection. It doesn’t yellow or degrade over time like hydrogel alternatives.
Who Should Use Flexible Glass?
Ideal for New iPhone Users
Our screen protectors are designed to fit the iPhone 12–17 series, covering a wide range of current-generation Apple devices. With precise laser-cutting around notches, sensors, and camera modules, they ensure perfect alignment. If you’ve recently upgraded to a new iPhone model with curved edges or dynamic gestures, our protectors support full functionality—including Face ID and edge swipes—without compromising sensitivity.
For Users Seeking Durability Without Bulk
Not everyone likes bulky phone accessories. Many users prefer a sleek design that still offers robust protection. YCYMO’s flexible screen protectors offer just that—a thin but tough protector that fits seamlessly with most standard phone cases. Thanks to our easy, bubble-free install with a private applicator, even first-time users can achieve a professional installation without lifting or bubbling issues. For distributors and OEM partners, the easy, bubble-free installation—supported by a private mold—reduces installation complaints and improves customer satisfaction, making it well suited for bulk purchasing and private label projects planned ahead of the CNY holiday.
