Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Corning Incorporated announced that Galaxy S24 Ultra devices will feature Corning’s new Corning® Gorilla® Armor cover material. Gorilla Armor offers an unparalleled combination of durability and visual clarity, delivering a richer display in sunlight and greater protection against damage caused by daily wear.
Corning® Gorilla® Armor is a smartphone cover material that reduces reflection by up to 75%, improving display readability and minimizing screen reflections. It optimizes durability on the Galaxy S24 Ultra and demonstrated superior durability compared to aluminosilicate cover glasses in lab tests. Corning created the “Scratch Bot” to measure its exceptional scratch resistance, showing no visible scratches and over four times more scratch resistance than aluminosilicate cover glasses.
David Velasquez, vice president and general manager, Corning® Gorilla® Glass, said, “This latest innovation simultaneously addresses both the need for durability and our increasing need for better optics – bringing the mobile phone experience of the future into the present.”Gorilla Armor contains an average of 25% pre-consumer recycled content, as validated by UL Solutions in accordance with UL2809-2 Environmental Claim Validation Procedure (ECVP) for Recycled Content.
