One of the smartphones that Huawei has launched at the ongoing IFA 2014 trade show is the Ascend P7 Sapphire Edition. Sapphire glass is often used on the small lens over a phone's rear camera, which is why it's so rare to find a scratch on the lens that would ruin photos.

 

The Ascend P7 Sapphire Edition is not all covered with the Sapphire glass and it isn't all expensive sapphire glass though - on the rear there's a ceramic finish, while the metal frame is now in a rose gold color. Apart from the sapphire glass layer, all the remaining aspect of the phone are adopted from the regular variant of the Ascend P7 smartphone.
