Corning Incorporated and Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. announced that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will feature Corning®? Gorilla® Armor 2, the industry's first scratch-resistant, anti-reflective glass ceramic cover material for mobile devices.
Samsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra devices showcase this revolutionary innovation on their front displays, marking an impressive milestone in mobile display technology. Gorilla Armor 2 is a landmark achievement in glass ceramic technology, combining superior toughness with excellent clarity on a smartphone display. Samsung's choice to incorporate Gorilla Armor 2 into its Galaxy S25 Ultra devices underscores the enduring collaboration between Samsung and Corning and the two companies' shared commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction.
Compared to first-generation Corning® Gorilla? Armor, Gorilla Armor 2 offers enhanced durability - devices equipped with Gorilla Armor 2 are even better able to withstand the rough and unpredictable nature of daily life. Specifically, when dropped on rough, challenging surfaces, Gorilla Armor 2 is engineered to better resist damage, such as breakage, more effectively than ever before.
Gorilla Armor 2's anti-reflective properties dramatically reduce surface reflections in both indoor and outdoor ambient settings. These properties can enhance the display contrast ratio, delivering an exceptional user experience in various lighting conditions. In Corning lab tests, Gorilla Armor 2 survived drops of up to 2.2 meters on a surface replicating concrete.
