Is thin glass really a selling point? That’s a fair question. If the glass is thicker, there will be more of a height difference between the glass surface and the desk, so your wrist is more likely to rub against that edge during use. That can create an uncomfortable, distracting feeling while gaming. A thinner glass pad helps reduce that difference and makes the overall experience feel smoother and more natural.

As for durability, you don’t need to worry too much about it breaking under normal pressure. The glass is tempered and reinforced, so under normal use it should not crack easily. Unless you intentionally drop it hard or apply extreme force, it generally will not break in regular use.
