Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra’s Gorilla Armor 2 is Industry’s 1st Scratch-resistant Anti-Reflective Glass Ceramic Cover Material for Mobile Devices

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra takes smartphone durability to new heights by introducing Corning Gorilla Armor 2, the industry’s first scratch-resistant, anti-reflective glass ceramic cover material. Unveiled today, this innovative display technology enhances the front displays of Samsung’s flagship devices, redefining resilience and clarity in mobile devices.

The Toughest Glass Yet: Gorilla Armor 2

Gorilla Armor 2 marks a significant milestone in glass ceramic technology, blending superior toughness with exceptional optical clarity. Samsung’s decision to equip the Galaxy S25 Ultra with this cutting-edge material underscores its long-standing partnership with Corning and a shared commitment to delivering top-tier innovation.

Kwangjin Bae, EVP and Head of the Mechanical R&D Team at Samsung Electronics, highlighted the collaboration:

“The Galaxy S25 Ultra represents significant progress toward providing our users with the most resilient mobile experience yet. Our partnership with Corning continues to push boundaries in display performance, ensuring that we meet the evolving needs of consumers worldwide.”

Enhanced Durability and Performance

Compared to its predecessor, Gorilla Armor 2 delivers unmatched durability, particularly in demanding conditions. It is designed to resist damage from drops on rough surfaces, offering superior protection against breakage.

In lab tests, Gorilla Armor 2 survived drops of up to 2.2 meters onto concrete-like surfaces, outperforming competing materials that failed at just one meter. Furthermore, it provides four times greater scratch resistance than lithium-aluminosilicate glass with anti-reflective coatings.

Crystal-Clear Viewing in Any Light

Gorilla Armor 2’s anti-reflective properties significantly reduce glare, ensuring an optimal viewing experience in various lighting conditions. Whether indoors or outdoors, the enhanced contrast ratio elevates display clarity, offering users an unparalleled visual experience.

David Velasquez, Vice President and General Manager of Corning Gorilla Glass, shared his thoughts:

“With Gorilla Armor 2, we offer consumers an unparalleled user experience with the first durable, optically advanced glass ceramic cover material ever used on a Galaxy mobile device.”

Pokdepinion: I was already quite impressed by the glass’s predecessor so I’m quite excited to see how much better it will be this time around. If they somehow made it reduce glare even further, then consider me a new customer.
